IT is 10 A.M. Where are the STATS?

AGGHHH I need DDR2 lol. I actually pulled a P4 2.8 out of the pile. I guess I'll have to wait on my friend at work. The power supply was new in Feb/08 lol. This thing actually has Heat pipes in the Cooler, runs a Sata HD. (I'll pull that out of one of My computers.)

Well I guess its time to check out a 2.4.

Ok P4 garbage computers Don't like MR Scott today.
The Dremel with a flex shaft is NICE though. I decided to do a little rearranging of Heatsinks and fans today.
The fan on Cooler master My Areo 7+ was failing so I had pulled it, and gone back to Coolermaster with Heat pipes.
Then along came the new CPU's and the Speez heatsink from Engracio. So I slapped my wifes computer together with the Speez. ran ok, but I had 600 plus gram Copper monster sitting.

Long story short, the Heatpipes now sit on My Starboard (Wifes computer) The Areo 7 now has the speez fan and is back in place on the Port (mine) engine.
Temps down 5c on the port engine.

Back to the Dremel, The Cooler Masters are nicely lapped, but a Dremel works great for putting a Mirror finish on them.
Next up Lapping the Speez. Very rough finish. Once that is done I may try it against the heat pipes. My money is on the Copper and heat pipes.

GREAT BUY,


get this great right shoe for the low price of $149.99 and we will add the left shoe for only $1.00 shoe laces extra ( $300.00 shipping and handling )

this is the buy of a life time, only worn once, and has only been thrown at somebody twice,

so hurry and get this great offer while supplies last,

this shoe is flying out the window so don't delay,

so be the first drunk in your local bar to throw this shoe at that bar tender that says you have had enough to drink,


amaze your friends with the tread marks this shoe will leave on their ass,

A question for those that have Lapped their Heat sinks. Did you also polish them when you were done?

First off, I'll do stats in just a moment.


About the lapping Nunya, i did in fact polish mine up after the lap. I have some metal polish here that I use for my drum cymbals, and that worked great.
