Well I sanded the scratched PAL...applied some Artic and temps went upto 43 under load.....wiped it off and put on the stuff that came with the PAL and now peaking at 39-40 with case temps at 22. Idle is now 36-37.
Also put in a 90mm intake fan (replacing an 80mm) to the front of the case and cut out the front grill so the fan doesnt have the plastic housing anymore.
Starting to like tweaking the system and this is NOT good .....
