I own a P4P800 865PE motherboard and i just took off the heatsync to the northbridge and i noticed this "shim" (iono if that is the right word for it) it's white and it looks sorta like a rubbery or foamish material on the bottom of the heatsync. doesn't look like the heatsync is really making direct contact with the NB. any idea what this is for? and should i remove it? I'm waiting on my processor and AS5, which i will apply to the NB.
and a quick question on the as5 and NB, do i apply the as5 on the NB chip itself or the NB heatsync? or does it matter? Thanks for you time.
