Did room temperature change? Did you by any chance moced the heatsink when doing something inside the case (happens to me all the time).

What hs do you have? The same thing was happening to me with my si-97 after resitting it, the problem was that there wasn't enough pressure against the cpu so the layer of as5 was too thick, so after I put a little pressure against the core and moved it from side to side a little and my temps dropped 5c+, right now my load temp is only 35c.

Chances are you will see alittle decrease after the thermal compound set's in but IMO those temp's are fine.

Well, it's not normal that the temps would raise after resitting it, but your temps are still low and you don't have to worry about it yet, did anythign change from the when your temps were lower like amount or thermal paste applied on the hs.

I was impressed too, i though it was a misreading but the temps has been like that for about a day now, hope it stays that way.

You don't have to remove the clip, just apply a small amount of pressure on top of the hs and move it a bit, you don't have to do it since your temps are still low, wait a while maybe the paste will settle and the temps will drop.
