Lapping FTW

[XDanger]

varying degree's of fine grit "wet & dry" paper (the gunmetal color one) not yellow sandpaper.

Link as example ,not necessarily fine enough for the final lap.


I would practice on something broken first.

Is it better to use a fresh area of paper for each rotation (if following this guys method)?

Cheers guys.

That you tube vid made it look real simple, Now i know exactly what items i need to do it & how to do so im gonna have a go on my i7 CPU.

Would i do my ultra-120 cooler in exactly the same way? that's a lot bigger and could be more awkward.

EDIT: just found this ...

When I lapped my Q9550 I did not see one difference degree wise... and I pressure modded my AF7 to.
