So I finally pulled the triggered on an i7-920 system with P6T MB and OCZ 3G1600LV6GK 6GB PC3-12800. I haven't really tested it yet because it's idling at 60 degrees C and if I even perform minor tasks it jumps up to 80degC. However, if I push down lightly on the stock fan, the temperature begins to drop. As I hold it, it goes down to around 34 degC.
I've tried tightening those plastic retainers and re-positioning the fan to see if it's incorrectly seated several times, but it doesn't improves the cooling unless I push down on it.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Stop the all caps titles!
