I am concerned about the temps I'm getting on a new i7 960. From rest to peak through one run (5 minutes) of Intel's Burn Test, my cores went 39->65, 35->62, 38->61, and 33->55.
There is a huge difference between the core temps. I am using a CM HAF 932, CM V8, and Arctic Silver.
It is possible I put on too much paste. I put it on both the heat sink and the CPU. My goal was a thin-as-possible layer on each, but the layers were not translucent.
Any suggestions? These temps are without any OC'ing.
