man this thing sucks... its idle right now is 40C... now before with my sk6 i didn't use any thermal grease or anything just some radio shack goo that was still on the chip when i took the heatsink off so i didn't bother touching it and left it on and this glaciar is terrible i don't even notice much difference in noise... i mean true i do have two 80mm fans that are 40db a piece but still i think with an xtra 10db out of the picture is would sound quiter but it doesn't i afraid what full load will be..... my system isn't stable now at 1008mhz i had to back it down to 992mhz just to load.. its a duron 800

The rig in my sig hits 47c full load with a glaciator. I do, howerver, have a duct with a 120mm 108cfm fan blowing onto it.
