I recently bought a heatsink/fan to replace the crappy heatsink on my motherboard chipset. Sadly, my video card hovered too close for the fan to fit properly. So, I slapped on some thermal grease and put back the original heatsink. Here's my problem... my motherboard temperature has risen by 5 degrees celsius (to ~37C) than before this whole ordeal. And yes, I applied the correct amount of thermal grease and I have ample air circulation. Does anyone know where the motherboard temperature is actually taken? I'm guessing it's where the chipset is. Thanks in advance.
