I just got the zalman vf700-cu cooler and my temps are even worse than with stock cooling . I have it in silent mode my idle temp is 65c and load is 100c using rthrdrbl for 10 minutes or so. Something is definitely wrong here obviously, im a total noob on installing something like this but i followed the instructions carefully and figured it wasnt that difficult. I cleaned the gpu with isopropyl alcohol and q-tips, then i used AC5 thermal paste spread it all over using a credit card. Ive redone it 3 times now and i still cant get the temps down, is the cooler and gpu not making proper contact? To much or too little thermal paste? I really need some help here folks.
