I have a Taisol hs/fan and a 1 gig athlon, I went to 1.33 gigahurts now. Everything is fine and perfect, smooth.

My temp went from 47c to 53c, is that okay? Seems a bit high of a jump though. Thanks!

Is that the idle temp.? Then it's too high. You need to get a better HSF.

switching from pads to paste won't give much improvement in cooling..

but changing HSF to a good one would give you more noticable improvement

What are your temps after load? If they are'nt above 58c I wouldn't sweat it. But you will drop your temps a bit by going with thermal paste.

Ur HSF seems sufficient. Whts ur case temp & ambient temp? Yup, using paste does improve temp...say around 2-4C (ASII reccommended).
