I appreciate the advice given in another thread on this forum, and should be getting my Ceramique next week. My main question, so I don't waste money buying another heatsink and fan, is this: Is a 20c difference between idle and load a sign of poor thermal compound/improper hsf installation? Installing 2 fans (albeit they were both exhaust) did nothing ultimately to lower the cpu temp, since I got 64c either way. My motherboard temp during all this time from what I recall didn't exceed 36c. So it really sounds like the problem lies in the heatsink/fan/thermal compound area, not general air circulation. If I had 1 intake, 1 exhaust, plus my dual fan psu, would this REALLY lower my temps that much (5c or more?). I want to find the true culprit here, not just find ways around the real problem. Thanks for any help.
