I wonder what you'd call a "Red Machine".
ATi doesn't make Mobo chipsets :|

One thing though, you are putting on A LOT of thermal paste on the CPU. This is probably why you are not getting good temps.

Oh and why last gen Mobo, CPU & Ram?
Really? On some areas you can slightly see through to the die... so I should apply even less?

I'm still dumbfounded on why the temps have worsened, but I was told that the neoprene has no influence on this. And the system has been running all day stress testing, so it can't really be the TIM curing anymore either.

So it's down to either not enough pressure, too much/little TIM, or both.




Thanks for the comments guys! Keep em coming!
