Considering it was a gift, and the store that it was purchased from is the kind of store that says "Is it running now? then we aren't doing anything" I doubt that will fix any of my problems. I guess I'll just leave it, and if I get the urge sometime later I'll delid.

I highly doubt I've done anything wrong. In two boards, with two coolers, the processor runs ridiculously hot. reapplying the paste every time. Even if I was doing something wrong, you'd think after all the remounts I've done today once it would have ran at a respectable temperature.

Yes I can.

Safe to say I'm not that stupid. Running the rad in pull in the top of my case. My rear fan as an intake, Bottom fan as an intake, and my HDD fan just does its own thing in the side. Airflow is not the problem. Its either the pump in the h100, or the chip itself. at stock voltages it gets to...

And, the conclusive results. I remounted without new paste this morning was getting about 88 on the hottest core. After AS5, it hit 95 almost instantly and I stopped it. Either my chip is terrible or my cooler is shonky. And I've got no more paste to play around with. I've dropped the...

I just used the stock paste that was on the bottom of the H100i's pump. It was spread far better than anything I could do. My room temp would be 21 - 24 degrees tonight. Here are my current temps. http://i.imgur.com/OW83kU9.png I'll remount it tomorrow, with the AS5. If the temps are still...

I'm used to using nail polish remover to clean my cpu's/ heatsinks, I guess I'll have to do that tomorrow. Ever since getting the processor I've been tempted to de-lid it, but I feel I'll just be setting myself to fork out $330 to pretend it never happened.

About a week ago, my uncle was kind enough to give me his 3770k and his spare motherboard. Today I have bought a new motherboard, as the one I recieved had issues running any more than one stick of ram, and had multiple bent pins. I upgraded from a dodgy Asrock z77 extreme4-m to an Asrock z77...

The front panel audio can only be plugged in one way, I've emailed corsair and they're yet to respond. It's a shame, my $365 case has a problem. Anyways, here's the picture

I'll post pics in the morning, The front mic port doesn't work, it seems to be shorting out the power LED.

I just got my 800D It is the easiest case to build into. It makes me want to buy my next system though. I will post pics later if anyone wants to see.

I have a 6850, Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit, and an OCZ fatal1ty 550w PSU.

A few hours beforehand I cleaned my computer, so the only file for it to read was the one provided in my first post.

I've been getting the occasional BSOD for a while now, the most recent was leaving a BF3 server. I've attached the only mini dump file in the C:\Windows\ Minidump Any help would be appreciated.

No do not put anything electronic in your dishwasher. Ever. Unless it's a keyboard. 100% dishwasher safe. Chuck in your mouse while you're at it, get that dead skin out of the grooves.

I don't like close water cooling loops, although lots of people quite like them. I'd personally choose the noctua, for two reasons: A. I don't like closed waterloops. B. I haven't heard much about the brand. CoolIT ECO A.L.C. CPU Cooler Noctua NH-U12P SE2

I could give you the list of my dream build? XD

I already have my 6850, I'm most likely be getting the cards anyway, so i'll get to try them out myself :D Thanks.

My friend is going to give me his two GTX 280 graphics cards when he buys a 590, My motherboard can only have one graphics card. Would one GTX 280 be better than a HD6850?
