I just bought Artic Clean and Artic Silver 5 today. I cleaned the old bubbled CPU thermal paste out and take out the broken thermal pad from chipset. Applied Artic purifier, dried the surface and applied some AC5 paste. I actually applied twice as the first time i just want to see how much paste i need for the CPU and chipset. The second time i clean it again and applied new layer with very slight more to ensure both have sufficient amount on. But i do not know if that's too much.
Now the test. Idle seems to have lower temp. But on gaming the chipset and CPU seems to have higher temp then before. And the fan doesn't run on high. While ALT+TAB out from the game, Everest temp monitor shows CPU have nearly 60c and chipset has 50c.
Suppose at that rate the fan should be on level 2 max speed but now its on level 1 speed only. Beside the cure time, is that normal? Shouldn't the CPU and chipset internal sensor indicate alot heat at presence and switch the fan to high??
