Temps are getting a bit to toasty for my liking, 3.6Ghz C2D 6600 1.46v , temps were getting to 70 and i have a Tuniq Tower :eek: :( , I only fitted it a week or so ago, very disapointed with these temps, im wondering if its worth lapping or just reapplying AS5, perhaps i can try the credit card application method?, any suggestions?, currently have the chip downclocked till i decide what to do.

EDIT : 2k Post's :D
 
Hmm im not sure i used the stripe of AS5 down the cpu when i applied it, is it worth trying a thin layer across the cpu?

"What is your cases airflow like? The Tuniq is a great cooler, but if cool air is not flowing through your case temperatures will be high."


eheheh
you are right , yf you put the Tuniq inside a oven,it cools nothing at all :)
