Thanks for closing the other thread, I wasn't sure what to do with it.
I'm no professional, but I have been building computers for the better part of my short life.
I tried a bunch of different methods of applying the thermal paste, including the 'dot' of various sizes, 'cross', 'line' and spreading it evenly myself.
The last worked best, but even with the fan on 100%, it overheated in about 10 minutes.
It is secured by mounted screws on the heatsink itself, and I guess that's been correct, due to the suction seal on the heatsink each time I remove it.
Perhaps the max temp is not set correctly, do you have a method to check it and change it if necessary?
What should it be?
Thank you again for all your time, I really appreciate it.
Regards,
Jah
