Updated with overclocks and BIOS link.
Capwn, what voltage is your sig OC at? I got 900mhz, but it requires 1.1v and forcing 85% fan speed. Way too loud. Might settle on 800mhz/stock voltage because it's quiet. |

Not going to disagree there, the factory application always looks like a cave man did it. Remounting with a proper amount of ceramique normally nets me 1-2C and zero overclock though.

There is one of your problems. Ceramique is more for sub zero applications because iirc it doesn't break down under the extreme conditions or something like that.. Could be totally wrong on that.. But I do know I used it and HATED it..
Try some MX-3, OCZ Freeze, IC-7.. Youll find they are highly rated around here are the only thermal pastes I use .. Do some more research and make sure your using the right stuff for your applications. Please dont bite my head off if I left your out your fav TIM... |

| Not the greatest paste in the universe, but it works. OCZ Freeze is complete garbage IIRC. |
