Still confused...
I just received my Arctic Silver 3 and Thermaltake copper shim yesterday. After careful installation and following all the instructions, the temp of my cpu is still the same as before (cpu 60C, mobo 36C); last time i just used the thermal pad of my hsf. And yes, i did clean off the old thermal compound on my hsf and cpu core, then only apply the AS3.
From the AS3 reviews, it is able to keep temp quite low; surely below 50C.
Can anyone please suggest some possible mistakes that i could have made? Thanks.
