Woah, man! Settle down! Don't screw your computer! I mean, I love my pc as much as the next guy but come on, no need to get that excited!

After reading:
Like they said try loosening the screw a bit and make it not quite as tight. Hopefully that fixes it if it doesn't also check to make sure nothings caught in the fans as several others suggest. If it's neither of those you may have done something.

You have to read his 500 reply thread from yesterday to know where he is at. If he tightened it, he should just leave it.

It should be 200 reply thread. By the way after tightening the temp does not change much.

I know I was there. But yeah. I thought you said you were leaving for vacation Tsuna? Or something of the likes. Just be careful when doing stuff with your computer and since you seem really new to all this i recommend you ask others about it here before you go and try stuff again. Hopefully your problem(s) gets fixed. Especially that one from yesterday.

EDIT: Also, if theres thermal paste was it applied at all, can you tell? Because that seemed to be part of your problem yesterday that it seemed like you did not have thermal paste obetween the cpu and cooler.

Yeah, I was. Well I'm not sure at the moment, I gave my old comp to my younger brother and I don't recall at the moment so until I order the rest of the parts for my sig rig I'm just using our home pc. Though I'll tell you once I get it together if you'd like. Although Mine is going to be using a Core 2 Duo rather than a Core2Quad, which I shall be OCing.

Edit : Why dun u get a Asus motherboard? I was surprised when i see the price of my motherboard drop $100+ in a month..

Nah, I could buy parts locally however Newegg tends to have the best prices for me over here. My mobo only cost me $104 + free shipping. It's the Gigabyte UD3R. As for why I don't get Asus? I'm more of an Intel guy :P and I've had my eye on mobos and my other parts for a while now and the UD3R has gotten lots of great reviews by most people that got it, as well as its supposedly quite easy to overclock with(not counting the EasyTune tool i think its called?) and has a lot of BIOS options. 78% of reviews by people who purchased the board on Newegg gave it 5 eggs(the equivalent of a 5 star rating). So yeah, since I've read a lot about SLI not scaling well I chose the UD3R over the new UD3P because I don't plan on going SLI just yet with this setup. And as for the card I have listed that will just be temporarily as my mobo requires a graphics card of some sort, until I have the money to order a GTX 260 216.

Sorry for the rant, hahah.

You can actually pay newegg by money order. They have that option. So you could take a trip to the post office, get a money order, and send it in, but you're in singapore .
