    4Heatpipes, bigger heatsink, max fan profile and using the notebook outside on -1c ambient temps.

    Greatness:

    Note: The settings on the side are accurate except for the voltage, I changed the voltage in Throttlestop to 1058v core.

    Cool. Could you share your heatsink pictures?

    Once I finished it I will probably.

    Fan needs to be replaced and right now it really looks messy, need to clean it a lot.

    Can't exacly tell your when it will be since it depends on how long @ alaskajoel needs to respond to my request.

    Shouldn't really affect it much. Unless there's some serious on die cooling, you won't see anything resembling liquid condensate on the laptop. In fact the heat from the laptop *should* forbid that from happening.

    It's no biggie because I turned the notebook on in the office and after using it for a little while took it out for benching. Just wanted to see the low temps :D

    So long as it's ambient it's not too much of an issue, it's when you use sub ambient air that it becomes an issue.

    When you expose laptop to lower temps, some parts that don't generate heat gets cooled. When you bring it back it's sub-ambient. I thought that the hard work with the laptop was done in some cool shed or something, but as @Danishblunt've said, it was just for benching, so nothing should happen indeed.

    No need to be hyped about it really.

    Problem is notebook is currently broken. I'll probably get it fixed soonish ~1-2months or so, after that I'll make a full review of all the mods I made incuding the heatpipe greatness. Also what the temps are like on load in a normal enviroment etc.
