It sits there between the CPU and the Heatsink. It just doesn't optimize thermal contact because it doesn't fill in all the grooves.
Bottom line, don't use extremely fine paper.

Nope, I have no idea. You will still have to start from coarse paper though.

Never lapped anything. I understand the general concept and I've seen the procedure.
Don't lap your CPU BTW! You will ruin the warranty.

but the cpu is only worth 60 bucks (e6300) on ebay so i wont lose much
i doubt i will ever use the warranty anyways...
i will lap my cooler first and see if i still need to lap the cpu
thanks,

Yeah it should help because then you have a nice flat surface on both sides.
Unfortunately I have a Quad core and I can't risk it :(

haha
yea
but the quads need lapping badly
my quad is also extremely concave but i dont have the guts to put it on sandpaper... thats why its running stock right now,
no contact = no oc
maybe when the nehalem comes out (major price drop for current cpus, actually pretty much all older cpus will be worthless), we shall try it on our quads... btw what quad do you have? i have a q6600 G0

I'm definitely gonna lap my Freezer 7 Pro. Maybe I'll call intel and tell them my CPU ain't working. After I get my replacement then, well it's a new CPU. I don't really have to worry about anything at that point and I can go ahead and lap it.

It doesn't overclock at great. Sometimes it doesn't stay stable at clock settings. I think there is something wrong with it.

Results of the Enzotech CNB-R1 Northbridge cooler. First let me say that the temp for the NB is exactly the same as the stock heatsink with the same 6.5 CFM fan. Some might say that's a bummer! Well it's not, as if you look closer, it's lowered and stabilized the core temperatures because it pulls so much heat out of the motherboard and away from the CPU socket. The cores also stay more even in temperature and are much more steady.
Where it really shines is when you load it down. Running Prime95, the CPU hits a max of 50C, vs the 55-56C I had before. Encoding with DVDRB/CCE is mid 40Cs compared to 45-47C. The CPU temp is actually up about 2C, but doesn't get as high as before. Running Orthos (both Cores) sees temps about 4-5C lower than before and never go over 55C!
Pretty simple to install, but make sure you get the fan mount oriented right before you push the push pins into the MB as it can go two ways, with either the flat side of the mount even with the CPU Cooler or turned 45 degrees with the corner pointing at the cooler. I completely assembled everything and checked to be sure that the corner of the fan wasn't pointing at the cooler, otherwise it woulsn't have fit and it would have been a bear to take out again. The stock GigaByte NB cooler does a good job with the fan installed, but this one removes far more heat tfom the MB. Terrific cooler. I also comes with 2 screws for a 10mm wide fan and 2 for a 20mm wide one. It also comes with a 2.5 gram of Arctic Silver Ceramique thermal compound. Not bad for $16.50!

I'm going to order one for Oxy-Moron! LOL!!

How much did you pay for it? My heatsink keeps the same temp(around 45) even when under load, and that's without a fan.

I sure hope you don't drive a car! ROFLMAO!! :-) Read the very last sentence of my post! LOL!! I don't see as to how yours could be the same temp as even with the room at 29C, the MB temp is only 42C tops! Those others are the CPU temps! LOL!! What MB are you running this week?

Russ
