Well, that's just it. I did try it on my E6400 with a Tuniq Tower and my temps just don't seem right. I'm at 3.6GHz with 1.45v (ambient temp around 74F), and my idle temps are 55C, full load around 70C (using TAT)... Just doesn't seem right... I've remounted twice and get around the same results each time... Granted there is no burn in yet, but still, 70C load in TJ09 with open sides?
I believe strongly in the power of ritual to achieve ultra low temps![]()
I put the Arctic Silver 5 paste on both the chip and the heatsink but as I said before I apply it painstakingly and by the time I get done i it is more like a tint of color than a coating. It is just to fill in the tiny microscopic pores and gaps in the surface of the CPU and the heatsink. It has to go on there completely evenly in a thin, even coat. I am fairly certain I use a smaller amount than most of you are using. But I also am getting lower CPU temps than most of you seem to be getting so maybe there is something to it.
