Hey guys, well i think this might have been one of the most fun upgrades of my pc, was to see my cpu temps go down, and go down quite a bit acutally, more than i would have thought.
I had a stock tim, with stock heat sink, but i bought Tuniq TX-2 off newegg, for like 5 bucks, and my temps went down 12 degrees (F) i was soo happy with this my temps have been up at around 35c on standard internet browsing and now they are at around 29c! This was amazing, i was so happy with this purchase, i still have my stock HS btw and overclocked .125ghz not much, but raised my temps about 6 degrees(F) when i did it. I would recommend this to anyone. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...-003-_-Product EDIT: i forgot to right down my gaming as well, my gaming went from 56c down to 51c, so thats quite an improvement from just changing the tim.

That's actually really impressive considering you only switched out the paste. It must have been pretty meh stuff to get that kind of a boost. Definitely $5 well spent.

Doesn't it also come with the Tuniq Tower?
Anyways, nice!
