Alright, well I've ordered a heatsink lapping kit, so I will give that a try on monday.
I made a few changes to my water loop, setup a push pull and that made a nice 3-5 degree drop in temps, I also added a Corsair ram cooler and I must say what a huge piece of, you would think from Corsair it would be better quality. It's comming out today.
