Alpha PAL8942 Problems.. CPU = 50C+

I had a retail intl heatsink from a 1.6a on my IT7-Max2 with a P4 2.8, but it was in the 50's, so I got a PAL8942.

I installed the heatsink as told, one thing I found odd was it says to make the airflow of the fan point away from the heatsink, I've never run into this before.
The fan isnt very high CFM, like maybe 20, but the CPU is at 50 and going up.


any suggestions?
 
Tell us what the highest temp it reaches is. Aslong as your cpu temp stays below 60C you should be fine. Also the temp reading that the motherboard gives is most likely off by a few degress so take that into consideration.
