Hello,
my e7500 is running at 80c while not even doing anything. my motherboard actually has it underclocked at 1.6 ghz (getting a new motherboard really soon to fix this) I'm wonder if you could give me some advice i'm pretty sure the heat sink its installed correctly. i don't get it. Thansk in advance.

any help guys? i can't seem to get the heat sink to lock into place. the holes in the motherboard are to small i think? i get them in there but it doesn't click, and comes out with a little force. and when i set the computer upright it dangles slightly. shouldn't the heatsink fit into all mother boards? its a intel d945gcfg1 motherboard. also i can't control the fsb. its running at 266.68 x 6 which is super low i can't figure out how to bump it up, theres no way to control it in the bios. Very frustrating all around..
