So when i got my mobo and chip, i put some arctic silver on the hsf and seated it, and saw "pretty good"(46nl - 51l) temps with the stock hsf on a 2800+. however, a few days ago i got the two toned siren from my nf-7 telling me it was overheating. I unplugged it, tried again, same thing later that day. I got frustrated, said I was going ot buy a dell, then decided to reseat the heatsink. When I took it off, the proc was barely on the copper core, kind of at an inbetween place - as though it had moved. I flipped the hsf and put it back on, and I'm back to where I was. I thought it was weird, why did it take so long to happen if it wasn't seated properly?


 
your lucky your cpu didnt fry, theres only one way that heatsink should fit on.

and a Dell, are you crazy. wow.
