I cant see the VRM temp ... maybe i could try to stick a Temp probe to it.

OCCT 8x shadder complex.

Gained 3-5°c after the thermal paste set for few days.

But i cant do any more test, The computer is sold now ... Waiting my I7 rig, only missing the memory !

@ Cyber-mav
I paid 40$ (canadian ) for this cooler. Quite cheap !

Night heatsink. I'd want to get one like that for my GTX 285 because the stock fan gets loud. How much does that Thermalright cost?
