I took the blue Gigabyte plate off of the NB heat sink last night. It was hot, as it had been running without a fan on for a while, so the adhesive tape was soft and it peeled off quite easily. Temps are now a nice 48C which is 8-10C cooler than it was before.

Also, got the vcore down nice and low now.



Popped in a second 5850 as well.
