Hey all,
I am a novice computer builder and for my Barton 2500+ I bought a Thermalright SK-6 and bundled fan, hopin to O/C. However I have not been receiving good cooling results. My CPU runs about 45 idle and 50-53 under load w/o an O/C. I have debated putting the stock fan on instead but then I read a review here saying the SK-6 was a good HS. I used a guide online when installing the HS so I think I did everything correctly. Should I put the stock one on or just remount the current one? Thanks for your advice.
