Hi all, I’m looking for a warm/v-shaped iem that can act as an upgrade for my ie80s which I recently lost... My shortlist is currently: - Sony xba n3- Sony z5- Rhapsodio RDB mk 4- earsonics the velvet- harmony/fxa7- audiosense t800- TFZ no. 3- moondrop blessing 2 (was told these will have much more low-end than the current blessing)- fiio fh7 Any help is greatly appreciated!

How did you find the fh7 in the end? I’m also looking for an upgrade to my ie80 and not sure exactly what to go for.

I think it was down to reseating, as I replaced the CPU wires before and nothing changed. Tbh I've even now managed to get a stable 4.4GhZ overclock, and possibly may have pushed the chip to 4.5. Really no idea what happened before...
-
It was reseating the CPU and reapplying thermal paste that fixed it... my guess is maybe thermal grizzly kryonaut doesn't play nice when you don't spread it, as this time after spreading it in the way they recommend, the system is definitely more stable...
-
It was too much of a bitch to connect the piping outside of the case, especially since it's hard tubing. Yeah I have an anti static mat and wrist piece. Computer is working now anyways so defo didn't short anything.
-
Haha cheers, yeah I was relieved to say the least when it worked after that. Just praying it doesn't happen again, will prob only be comfortable after a week of testing now. Either way happy nothing was actually fried.
-
Yeah I didn't think so either, as I figure the socket cover pretty much makes it impossible. So basically you can only bend pins while installing the CPU itself? That's a relief Well, hopefully it'll stay working. At least if it fails again I know it's prob the paste and CPU block being too tight more than anything else.. Thanks for the help!

Btw thought id add some pics of my build

So I reseated the CPU - no bent pins on the mobo. Thermal paste looked a bit sketchy though so this time I just used therma grizzly krynoauts suggested method and actually spread the paste. Computer is up and running again normally, but I'm a bit paranoid this may happen again. For now things look good though, honestly temps look slightly better than before... Also, is it possible to bend LGA-2011v3 pins by putting pressure on the CPU block? While pushing piping into the CPU block I heard a click. It could've easily been another component, but am paranoid I may have bent a pin this time, even though everything looks OK...

Unfortunately not..
-
Do you think its possible the motherboard VRMs burnt out? Would it be possible to boot at all if this had happened though?
-
I've already tried disabling Turbo and SpeedStep to no avail, but will give C-states a go too. Could bumping the core voltage really be necessary given I am running the chip stock?
-
Yeah I did have AI suite installed. Thing is I can't boot into the windows boot disk with all cores enabled either, so don't think reinstalling windows will be able to fix it... It was working for about 12 hours before this happened, but will double check the pins just incase.
-
I'll try this...
-
Thing is if this were pins, surely it would've been an issue from the beginning?
