I got it because my 9800NP fan is loud and I'd like to overclock more too.
Anyway mine has noticable milling marks I can feel when I run my finger nail across them. Not bad I guess, but I'm sort of new to this lapping and stuff. I bought a Zalman 7000 AlCu for my CPU and it had a much better finish on it. Does it matter or should I just install it with the arctic silver I have here or do I need ot sand it down?
IF sanding makes a 1C difference or whatever I don't care. Prolly not worth the time.
Thanks!
