Well I did get my AS3 smeared all over the place..haven't had time to clean it off yet. When I put it in(thinking it was ok) it got to 70C REAL FAST, and comp shut down. I waited a second, turned her back on...no luck, no beeps no video no nothing.
Throw in my 1600+ everything works fine....put my 1700+ back in, and nada...put 1600+ back in and its fine...Well the diode I have on the heatsink(REALLY close to the cpu) says my 1600+ @ 1.9 is 35C idle. It says my 1700+ is 25C not doing anything..
Could the AS3 that was smeared all over have fried my chip? I dont see any marks on the cpu or smell anything(but the AS3)..
Should I just go and buy a new chip before they are all gone?!?
