As you already know Skylake overclock depends greatly on TIM used.It is now more important than ever for both ambient and extreme users to use a quality TIM for maximizing overclocks.
Since overclocking Skylake is pretty much apply voltage and frequency and start i made a short test with stock tim versus two quality solutions from Gelid and Grizzly .
I used for this a good single-stage made by nachtfalke who kept a steady temperature of -56 idle -53 load on xtu benchmark . Having a steady temperature and avoiding variations helps greatly test data so i have to give credit to nachtfalke for being a great builder and also a good friend
Long story short:
SINGLE STAGE -56 IDLE -53 LOAD
Intel I7 6700K @ 1.58V
Frequency for completing XTU benchmark :
Test #1 Cpu not delidded,stock TIM between DIE and IHS,Gelid GC EXTREME between IHS and EVAPORATOR.
Results : TERRIBLE
Stock TIM is a disaster and Intel should be sued for letting chips like these out of factory,maximum temperature was 54 degrees,maximum frequency 5070...
Test #2 Cpu not delidded,stock TIM between DIE and IHS,Grizzly Kryonaut between IHS and EVAP
Results : POS but better
Kryonaut improved the result by 12 degrees and maximum frequency is now 5120 ...
Test #3 Cpu delidded,Gelid GC-Extreme between DIE and IHS,Grizzly Kryonaut between IHS and EVAP
Results : Good
Replacing stock TIM with Gelid GC Extreme slashed another 19 degrees and maximum frequency is now 5190 for XTU
Test #3 Cpu delidded, Grizzly Kryonaut between DIE and IHS,Grizzly Kryonaut between IHS and EVAP
Results : Excellent
Grizzly Kryonaut between DIE and IHS slashed another 10 degrees and gained 100 mhz more for a decent frequency of 5290 XTU test...
Conclusion :
Kryonaut is an excellent product and should be taken into consideration by anyone who knows what he is doing when overclocking. A good tool for overclockers deserves credit and this goes to Roman !

100$ for 50 grams of paste to have some common sense tough would be maximum i would spent . The thing is the more is made the cheaper it gets for supplier,so a proper way of doing this would be to create a preorder list of interested people then see the final price .

you don't care if you could have a WR too
-
Haha,true.The Japanese so a pretty good job and good tweaking,well done !
-
-
it can be squeeeezed more for sure
-
you've done it,nice job
-
it does 5300 at same voltage but this was a first run
-
Maybe L519C087 otherwise it means you are back in time with your skylake sample

4970 xtu on air?great chip
-
Sold locally please close
-
No need for spreadsheet,just mark all as crap and go to sleep
-
seems like a great cpu,what could it do on air?
-
-
how much cache voltage for 4500 cache ?
-
L519B740 another crap can't finish cinebench r15 at 4800 1.4 vid 1.28
L525B530 another crap cinebench r15 4800 not possible at 1.4... vid 1.26
Binning haswell was fun,binning skylake is extremely fun

This thread delivers,the amount of views is too damn high

Problem is not in idle of course but rather in exhausting benchmarks and this i can think of xtu,cinebench,3dmark cpu tests.
In any case i would be very carefull when delidding this time,cpu has traces on all pcb unlike haswell where half of cpu was not in danger.Add the thinner pcb and you see what i mean.
-
thanks,lots of testing to be had in future,we will see 2000+ scores
-
bump
-
Great for a first touch,let's see if it gets near haswell
-
great job XA,nice guid!
-
Bump,skylake is not what you need
how much would you pay for magic Skylake TIM?
in Skylake/Kaby Lake/Coffee Lake (-X) (Z170/Z270/Z370/X299) OC

Everyone was assuming that this paste would have good thermal capability i guess...You are basically right,put no paste and have no CB ,or put a sheet of armaflex between cpu and pot and still CB free
