Well, the paste arrived.

So off it came - much easier the second time round.

The big scare though was when I removed the waterblock, it's on pillars, and the AC5 was enough "adhesion" to rip the CPU out of the socket. A couple of the pins were glinting in the light.

But no harm done, it's up and running. Had to reseat the waterblock, but now it appears to be ok.

Temps are down 8 degrees on one core and 10 on the other - at idle.

Under load, temps are down about 25 degrees.

Quite happy about that!
