The head has 7-10mm of play in the mounting bracket. And the mounting holes themselves have a lot of play as well. So chances are the head isn't even sitting properly on the CPU.
As for prep I didn't take a picture but i did it very well. Removed socket hold down, erasered it all up. Erasered everything in the socket area (up to the edges of the CPU). Even did the vaseline in the socket. Then used 3 layers or insulation around the head. |
I am trying to remember what program I used for some kind of idea on temp on the cpu. Most programs will not read/show a negative number. I think Speedfan did at least show a negative temp indication. When running Prime95 I could see temps climb to 0C. Once above 0C, temp would quickly rise...then computer would freeze up.
239Mhz, 4.8Ghz...hell man turn on that turbo
for 5.0Ghz!
