Oh, BTW, h2k, either you have overstrained your clip or your Colcano is not several milimeters shorter. Either way, even if you get it even and upright again, the clamping may now be unsatisfactory. Time to look for a new HS or if you are still kinda atttached to your Volcano, you can try getting a cold plate but you'll have TWO interface resistances instead of one then.

I'll just have to wait until i get this thing levelled out. I don't think I've taken that much off the bottom though. I could've just gotten used to the clip on the thing, but i'm also clipping it on differently now, after i've read the instructions for arctic silver, I'm not putting it on flat and then clipping it -- now i'm tilting it one way, not touching the core and then putting it on the rest of the way and using the screwdriver thing to put it on the last lug.

Good luck!
