    I don't see much difference in temperatures, probably because of a bad mount
    I used electrical tape to cover the smd chips and put extra layers in the corners. I'm running TRUE120 with 2x fans right now, the core is steal hard
    I used denny's method from this thread http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/...&highlight=ihs
    I just can't believe I risked a chip like this, I'm crazy.
    Edit: FYI, I had to lap the cores since one was higher than the other!

    This is a similar statement to:

    "I had to cut my arm off with my pocketknife, since it was stuck under the boulder."

    That might explain why 2 cores are always cooler than the other 2... they are making better contact/closer to the IHS.
