I don't understand after all the times it been suggested not to run your system without thermal paste you are still doing it.without thermal paste.. just idle.. is has a max of 50.. so... I got a lot of different suggestions to thermal paste? can you suggest any good ones?
AS 5 is the one I have and do use. I have tried several and always went back to AS5.
Please go back and read all the posts in your thread and understand them or you will make a toaster.
Also remember that Intel isn't really concerned about low temps because they don't hurt anything. The chips built in temp sensors are not very accurate at idle. Intel is concerned about high temps which their temp sensors are very accurate.
Here is some instruction.
