yes this is deffo too hot. try reseating your cooler.
Yeah I might as well do that. It's just that I HATE removing all the cables.
btw. i used a credit card to spread out the as5, I really made it as thick as possible but there were some blank spots around the edges (does it really matter? the cores are in the centre anyway)
i went out and got a 9500 =d
now my idle temps are reading at ~20 and load temps with orthos at ~40
Actually you want as thin a layer as you can that doesn't leave any blank spots. Too thick is not good. I think those temps are reasonable enough that I personally wouldn't bother trying to fiddle with it anymore. As long as it doesn't lock up, it is probably good to go.
edit: I didnt clean the IHS/HS. There was a thermal compound on the HS which I removed (with paper tissue, uh) and then applied AS5 on the IHS. Could this be the source of my "problem"?
