high cpu and high case temps, please help

[Devil4915]

I just installed a newheatsink yesterday, Thermalright slk-900a with arctic silver 5 along with a panaflo h1a 92mmx25mm fan. my cpu temp is a 50 celcius while my case is at 36 celcius. is this right????? In my case are 4 fans, 2 intake and 2 exhaust. Whats wrong??? What can I do???

Thanks Alot,
Ryan

well.. i know that arctic silver takes 100 hours or something like that to burn in or set or whatever word they use...

http://arcticsilver.com/arctic_silver_instructions.htm

"Due to the unique shape and sizes of the particles in Arctic Silver's conductive matrix, it will take a up to 200 hours and several thermal cycles to achieve maximum particle to particle thermal conduction and for the heatsink to CPU interface to reach maximum conductivity. (This period will be longer in a system without a fan on the heatsink or with a low speed fan on the heatsink.) On systems measuring actual internal core temperatures via the CPU's internal diode, the measured temperature will often drop 2C to 5C over this "break-in" period. This break-in will occur during the normal use of the computer as long as the computer is turned off from time to time and the interface is allowed to cool to room temperature. Once the break-in is complete, the computer can be left on if desired."


also what were your temps before?

it came with the stock heatsink and stock thermal crap. temps were cpu temp of 60 and case of 28ish
