I just got some Arctic Silver Ceramique 2 and decided for the first time to try the line method on my i5 3470. After having some trouble mounting the fan back on the CPU I finally got it on and booted into the computer. I am running HWmonitor right now and all the cores are different temps and jumping up and down. Temps range from 34-53. The cores may all be the same temp for a split second but then they all starting randomly jumping into different temps. Did I mess something up?
EDIT: Also wanted to add that using Intel stress test all cores max out at 70 degrees after about 10 minutes of 100% load.
