After installing an aftermark heatsink, programs like realtemp and intel desktop control ceter are telling me that "unable to verify genuine intel", but BEFORE i installed my CPU heatsink I did'n't have this issue.


Any advice or tips?
I run a DXSOx58 with a core i7 920, overclocked usually @ 3.8-4.2 Ghz
I also use WinXP currently.

Ack double post >< sorry

Maybe it is too tight of a fit - partially crushing the core? Just a guess...

I'd try to re-socket the CHIP and re-seat the HSF as well. Check mounting carefully and make sure you don't have TIM oozing out the sides getting on the PCB...

:cool:
