80 is too high-my old desktop shut off at 75. If the stock paste isn't working you can get silver compound. Also if you just put it on check the amount. If you put on too much heat isn't dissipated. You only need a thin layer. How are your fans directed? It would be best if the one on the front blows in and the one on back blows out. Also since heat rises I would put one on the top of the case blowing out if you have a hole there.
Hi,
You must got a bubble or bubbles in the paste ?
What type of paste ?
Arctic silver 5 is I guess the best thermal paste.
for townsb:my frount fan is going in and my back fan is going out
my case does not support top fans has no cut out for them
its the stock amd heatsink and has the thin ammount of thermal past them apply :)
for thrashzone:i will check now if i have bubbles in the thermal paste
60-70
and is this what you mean by bubbleing
Hi,
Sort of but it might look like that after pulling it off.
60-70 doing nothing says we need to look at resource monitors read out with the overview section possibly the update system is running a muck ?
Click Start and type in the search box
resource monitor
Hit the enter key or click on that suggestion.
