so r u saying that i should reopen n reapply the thermal paste? regarding the tiny and spreading..ive read the AS5 article as you give link... for quad core... it should be a thin horizontal line and dont have to spread... just put the heatsink directly above it so that it will spread by itself just like a pancake... this is what im going to do next... correct me if im wrong.. thanx...
about the everest.. the readings are far away different from speedfan.. even when im playing games.. never it reaches more than 100C.. not even 50C...
