    Just realized I had been running my CPU on high temps due to improper glue(ing?). Hopefully it was not damaged too much by this incident.. :B

    Definie 'high temps'.
    Do not send me a PM if what you want to talk about isn't absolutely private.
    Ask your questions on the forum where others can also benefit from the information.

    Yah man I figured it had to do with a problem in the glue.

    EDIT: Applied glue, then sticked my fan, now it's showing steady 50c temperatures instead of 88c on idle.

    If only I had known, I could've avoided running my comp on 100c for 1.5 weeks for a measly 6 bucks.. I will dread if I see this chip break in the next 2-3 months. :P

    On the positive, my SSD, GFX card and Noctua are on their way and will arrive here by Monday..... 8)
