Hi all,
Finally got my PC built last night. All went well apart from I think I may have put too much thermal paste on the CPU
I did the small blob thing and spread it nice and thin but couln't get it so thin that I could see the writing on top (I was using ceramic paste if that makes a difference)
I did add another super thin layer almost in the center and put the HSF on top.
When I got it all up and running I loaded ASUS PC probe.
Idle temps were 24 - 26, is this okay for a P4 3Ghz ?
I am a little worried I have put too much paste on, any comments ?
A BIG BIG thanks on all on Hexus forums for answering my painful questions over the last few weeks. PC seems super fast and stable.
Many thanks indeed.
