However that's an excellent question because it's cool to the touch. So, no the conditions are not consistent with the readout. Also the HSF has not been removed. *I put down a nice coat of arctic before laying the heatsink down. By "a nice coat" how thick do you mean. *It is recommended, IIRC, that the coat should be 0.003" thick! *Too thick a coat can cause overheating, too! Well I didn't have my micrometer but I believe it was about close enough. *Not thick. I am going to reset it but I think replacing the HSF wouldn't be a bad idea either. *I I think when you remove it, you're going to see a pattern in the AS that tells you it wasn't making good contact. If you clean off the AS, put a single rice grain of AS in the center of the CPU, install the heatsink, remove it and examine the pattern, the AS probably won't have spread over the entire surface. And that implies a problem with the fit. * * Paul I readl through an AS pdf online. *It shows a line in the center, longer then a rice grain but short of the height of the chip. *The heat spreader is apparently wider then the actual cpu so it need not spread corner to corner. *Unless this document is incorrect I'll try that. Stuart Postedit - removed HSF, cleaned and prepped with AS kit both, reseated, on load completion in Windows BEFO 67C CURRENT 47. About to try Prime Prime after just a few minutes that I stopped, using RealTemp , first core was at 82 already , other 3 under 70 but high 60's. 82 concerns me. Perhaps I need to make some adjustments in Prime program . Stuart |
