After a while of not caring very much, it came to my attention that there were 2 cores consistently warmer than the other two, and I wanted some input on it. This should be all you need to know:
Q6600
Zalman 9700
Core 1 and Core 2 are almost always 7-10 degrees warmer and Core 3 and Core 4. As an example:
I was wondering what the core arrangement was on the Q6600, like if you read it like a sheet of paper with 1 in the top left, 2 top right, 3 bottom left, 4 bottom right, or something else. If what I just said is true, could it be possible that the 9700 is making more pressure and contact with 3 and 4, causing lower temperatures? How would I counteract that? I am only using one of the clips (horizontally) to keep it on, so would adding the other one vertically do anything?
Thanks in advance
