Wow! GOod stuff really is GOOD!

Got my new HSF today and didn't even bother to apply the AS3.

Generic HSF to SK7 + YS Tech variable decreased CPU temps 15C under load, I'm really happy. To celebrate I'm overlcocking and having a beer (good mix eh?)

What were your old temps and what are your new temps? Give the computer a nice cold beer as well...maybe you can lower its temps a few more degrees. AS3 would work just as well though

 

[JMU1337]

Old temps: 47/54
New temps: 40/42

The AS3 should drop it a little bit but I don't really care, it's running cool enough to keep me happy. Beer in the case, that's water cooling right?

*psst*

54 - 42 = 12

umm... no matter the heatsink, you want at least some type of greaes on the CPU. Doesn't matter how good the heatsink is, even a swiftech or thermalright should have thermal grease.
