Hi guys. I just bought a Crystal Orb and Tin Coated RAMSinks from heatsinkfactory.com. I did all of the steps to flatten the core and the 8 ram chips. I applied all of the AS thermal adhesive and nothing touched the RAM pins. Now, after the install, I did a bench with higher timings (272/542) and I got almost 2k lower than my previous bench before removing stock cooling and adding the CORB and ramsinks (272/544). Here is my bench before: http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=4351122, and after: http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=4383219. Now I removed all of the epoxy from the previous stock cooling, wiped it down with isopropyl alcohol and sand papered it. I wiped down the RAM chips with isopropyl. I noticed that when I removed the stock cooling, in the middle of the circle of the core was a little opening, and a shiny metal was beneath. It was also at the top of the circle. Any tips would be great.
Thank you.
Thank you.
