Just a question for those who used the new screws from AC, did you reuse the springs as I was not able to, will this cause a problem? Also, how are your temps? Mine are:

Idle
-Core 1 31°
-Core 2 28°C.
-Core 1 VRM 35°C
-Core 2 VRM 35°C

Load
-Core 1 43°
-Core 2 37°
-Core 1 VRM 60° ( I have seen them get up to 72° max so far)
-Core 2 VRM 45°

Load temps were after playing Mass Effect with 16xAA for a few minutes. Are these OK? I've heard peeps complaining a lot about VRM temps w/ this cooler and even mentioning temps up to 120°C (WTH are they doing). Can I stop worrying now? :)

Try running Furmark for a load. Your temps look very good.

OK here we go, 2 minutes of Furmark Stability Test "Xtreme Burning Mode" (peak values):

GPU1 Core 46°
GPU2 Core 45°
GPU1 VRM 73°
GPU2 VRM 63°

What do you think?

Just fine, cores are 40-50C less than max, same on the VRM's.
