Just replaced my AC Freezer 64 Pro with a AC Freezer Xtreme

Struggled to get the thing on as its not the best fitting system in my opinion, but bios is reading 70C temp as is core temp and speed fan.

Stripped cooler back down cleaned up took motherboard out of case and re-fitted yet im still getting the same temps

any ideas as to what the hells going on with it? or should i just get rid and replace it with something better

CPU is not clocked either

Cheers Craig
 
Refitted the freezer 64 and temps have dropped back down to 50c still not great but better.

After rechecking the freezer xtreme it seems its not contacting the cpu properly will have another look later.

Will check bios its was updated not long back

Had another go tonight, fresh thermal paste, refitted, checked temps, again 70C

Took cooler off, paste only on the sides of the cooler plate and not in the center

Hmmm thinks it may need lapping
