Update on the teperature info, stock was 79c idle. I took off the cooler and cleaned it for photo's. when i re-installed it I used A.S. Ceramique and now idle is 54c the stock goop was way too thick I guess.

Good thinking. And nice temp. drop. Perhaps AMD should consider upgrading their tim for future batches.


How are those benches coming?

Thanks for that, I'll bear it in mind for the review rig, hopefully re-gooping it can help get a higher OC.

I hated my first 2900 stock cooler so much that I blew it up! Am tempted to get a couple of 4850s to replace my current 2900XTs.

Any chance of the benches you promised?

Three times now, you have said you will post!

Thanks
