if coolant is circulating, you should feel the output hose being warmer?

The funny this is that when I set the affinity to all programs to only Core 1 things cool down a bit. Only when Core 0 and 1 is used it starts heating up real bad.

if the pump is working it will be the hot one, if the pump is not, both will be just warm

little pricey but at least you don't have to pull the mobo for a socket 940

[Sshadow]

Nice So how would that thing attach? I don't see the fittings on my mobo for a heatsink to "clamp" onto like I am used to seeing.

click on the how to install and then click on socket 940

course it will be a waste running stock

this will keep it plenty cold enough

I went with the Zalman thanx for the help should have it tomorrow. I will report back on the results.

color me green(with envy) the locked multiplier caused me a lot of grief, I finally had to search to find some memory that would run fast enough to keep up with my amd64 watch your temps, as long as you keep the cpu under full load at 50C or below you are fine, it's not overclocking that kills components, it's overheating Orthos is good but in your last setup, it's a cpu killer

Well that was a massive disapointment. I took off the cooling block and realised there is a piece missing on my board. The piece that the heatsink clamps to is not there. Is there a way to order this piece? Is it something I could install?

that's a standard bracket/mount and all motherboards come with it?

I wonder what happened to yours?

[Sshadow]

Mine was probly removed when they installed the mounts for my liquid cooling as it looks like they use the same screw holes. Can it be purchased somewhere?

when they installed the mounts for my liquid cooling

they would be the ones to talk to, I was under the impression you had done the changeover
