Hello,
I have a Pentium XE 965, and a zalman CNPS9700 NT heatsink on it.
My question is, When i go into the bios after a cold start and look at the system temps the CPU temp sits at 45-50C, is this high? I played some games for a few hours and then checked it again and it was sitting at a steady 51-52C.
The heatsink was a bit of a pain to put on, but would it be worth it to take it off and put some better thermal gel on it or should i leave it alone? I put the stuff that came with the fan on it, the zalman super thermal grease stuff.
Thanks
