Lapped 9980XE Kingpin IHS: Unexpected Results

Описание: We benchmarked the nearly perfectly lapped Intel i9-9980XE that KINGPIN helped us lap. Results are in one way unexpected, and in another way expected.

Article is pending as we're traveling -- sorry!

Lapping the i9-9980XE IHS was made easy with Kingpin's lab setup. The biggest point of improvement is in surface contact between LN2 pots and the IHS for a flatter, thinner layer of paste with reduced risk of cracking in extreme cold. Additional benefits, like reduced thermals on ambient, were also tested in our lab. We further tried to plot any improvement in core-to-core deltas as a result of lapping the IHS, ultimately looking to determine if it's worth it to lap a CPU for "normal" use.
