200 hours til the particles fully align, but you should make sure you go about 150 hours in operation, 50 hours shut off, but divided, like 15 hours on, 5 hours off, 15 hours on, 5 hours off... etc.

i did go back to it and spread it nicelly but it has made a big diff, also jus a little tiny bit went on two pins on the corner, i took as much as i cud off, no signs of anything happening, but is it dangerous?

If you got it off as best you could and if it did'nt go bang I would'nt worry, you could of left it in the socket though, you did'nt need to take it out totally!

You can get proper cleaner to get it off, but if you got it off best you could then that should do, someone will have another opinion no doubt, but im sure it will be fine!

You should push the heat right up with cpustress or prime95, will help it bed in!

Also do a sciencemark 2 score test and post in thread!

Thats better than my score though, but im 24/7 stable, I cant get my FSB over 880Mhz though Lots of factors holding it back but shit happens, ive got new gfx card on the way though so that will cheer me up when it eventually arrives!

 

[Greek]

hmm let us no how it goes, tried p965 get a hardware error 1 min in, i thinks its cz of vista cz ir run fine before

 

[Alcpone]

Will do, does vista not slow your games down though?

 

[Greek]

well it certainly slowed bf2 down, but then again, i havent gt proper chiopset drivers, gcard drivers r only beta, and only 1 6800gs is working cz the dirvers dnt recognize sli
