    Does anyone know the numbering as in the position of cores 1,2,3,4 on the Intel quads?
    Like if you were looking at it face on would it be core 1 top left core 2 top right core 3 bottom left etc?

    if you are installing a waterblock it supposed to perform better if you mount in vertical.

    could be a tiny imperfection in the center of the IHS

    same with my old qx6700, it must be to do with the core not having decent contact with the IHS, maybe if that was removed it would be better :-p
