i finally decided to reapply my silver 5 since my temps were up at like 38C...
i sanded the IHS down to the copper!
i should've taken pics but i couldn't find the camera!
temps currently at 37C and im running mozilla, itunes, and a few others...
not to mention the compound hasn't settled yet!
YESS!!

haha funny... except it's probably gonna drop about 5C...
with my earlier application it started at an idle 45C and after the 200hours that silver 5 takes to settle, you know that of course tho right... lol
so it should drop alot by the time it settles... plus load temps are always alot better with a better application
also note that my cpu was at about 25% usage when i got the reading 37C... it wasn't exactly idle lol i was doin a lot of stuff..
