Hi All! Ive been finishing up my second build, and have learned a lot about pcs from my first build..
But i have a question i cant seem to find any answer too... I have a Phenom ii x6 and have it overclocked, im cooling it with a coolermaster hyper 212 evo, this cooler supports the push pull configuration of 120mm fans.
I had two fans but have just replaced the slower pull fan with another of the faster fans i already have on it for the push .. but when i was attaching the second fan the whole heatsink turned a little bit..
Now.. I straightened it back out and now with a faster fan u figure my cpu would be a little cooler (normally 16 degrees c on idle and around 30 on load) but it seemsd to be running a little warmer now (19-20 degrees c on idle havent checked load yet) so my question is do i need to reapply thermal paste because the heatsink turned a little?
