I'm certainly hoping to.

That peeled skin picture is pretty cool looking. Everyone should throw pics of their peeled skins and put together a gallery thread. FTW!

My new skin is pretty thick. That's not going to hurt anything is it?

The chiller is chilling now, all I have left to do is apply the kneaded eraser, mount the water block, and throw the switch.

I'm so happy that everything is going good. I'm much more comfortable with my application of Dragon Skin this time. I skinned it right up to the surface of the cpu so no air already, but I'll put a ring of eraser around it anyways.

About to eat a pizza and then I'll be back with live updates.

OK....so far so good. No leaks, no moisture. Still no thermometer on the chip though.

Software says 7c right now, and has been as low as 4c. I think I may be getting near the gelling point of the coolant because it went up 2-3 degrees....after I ran through 3dmark06 @ 4.5GHz/1.55v..............the 1055t wouldn't do that @ 1.6v. I just guessed that 1.55v might do it. I'm sure things will change.

I went from 3.4GHz to 4GHz to 4.5GHz...lol...I wonder if it will run IBT or anything really stressful. I'll keep you posted and get some pics up in just a few minutes.

Thanks a lot guys!! I am really happy with the results of the 2nd attempt.

This cold shit rules. No way could I run this chip @ 4.5Ghz before the chiller.

Pics added: The front(never took out the memory), the back, the eraser I removed because it was too thick, didn't stick to anything, and didn't seem to be doing anything to help matters, and the whole system in poor lighting. I'll get some better daylight pics tomorrow.

im impressed mate

dont worry about IBT, we measure stability by having the benchmark you are planning to run finish!

[FACE]

That's an insulation job good enough for ln2! I'm glad you have her worked out...

I wonder if anyone can get away with flowing the skin on that thick around a LGA socket...

[Neuromancer]

Word.. if it handles wprime 1024... its uber stable. (IE... you need to clock more LOL)

Gotcha! I like that kind of stability better. If I can race...it's stable! Waiting for a download now making coffee.

I'm hoping to not have to remove the cpu for awhile or until I want to.

EDIT:

I always hated prime.

[rickss69]

That's pretty thick...just be uber careful you don't let any flow into the cpu socket, it won't be pretty.

(Next time I would mask the edges of the cpu with tape before skinning if you are going that high with the level)

[ny_driver]

It's not quite that thick, I spread it up on the edges of the cpu. I filled in every possible air opening in that socket around the chip. I'm hoping it's good to go without regular removal. I'm too lazy for that, plus moving shit around is how leaks happen. I did all the skinning with cpu installed.

It's working perfect right now I don't want to touch it until I must install the thermometer probe.
