I've never undetvolted before. I have an AMD A-10 5800K CPU and a Asus F2A85 M-Pro motherboard. I want to lower my CPU temp.

I just built the PC a few weeks ago. I have Arctic Silver thermal paste.

Improper application/ excessive/ too little TP can cause overheating too

Arctic silver is fine & worth a try, why slow down that gem.

I used a pea size amount and used the CPU/HSF to naturally spread it around. My CPU temp has actually gone down about 10 - 15 degrees after installing the HSF and thermal paste. But I want to lower it more. HW Monitor says I'm around 50 - 55c idle from about 65 - 75 idle before the TP/HSF.

What will that do? I haven't undervolted yet. I'm currently running memtest. I did prime95 before and I had 2 fatal errors and it was failed hardware. So far I'm not having any memory problems.
