I just upgraded my cooling on my Pentium 4 630 Prescott processor. I used the stock cooling for about 3 months and my temperatures were something like this:
Idle: 50c
Full Load: 60c
I cleaned off the old thermal compound off of the processor and put on a thin layer of Artic Silver 5 and I installed my new Zalman CNPS9500 LED cooler. I've had it in my system for about 5 hours now and my temps are hotter than they were:
Idle: 55c
Full Load: 80-84c
I don't know if I did something wrong but I installed it exactly as it shows on the website and I double checked everything. Also, my computer has automatically shut down twice due to what I'm assuming is the processor overheating. I haven't overclocked the processor at all and I really don't know what could cause the temperature to be worse. Please help me if you can. I'd really like to know why it's not working correctly.
