Yeah I would prefer not to take the thermal paste off and reapply but if its necessary I will.
anyways right now I'm posting from that computer. (its a i7 920 chip btw). temperature is staying between 46 and 49 @ idle. My house is controlled temperature so the temp is always 23 degrees inside.
if I do need to apply new thermal paste will I need to take the cpu off the motherboard and clean it off or can I just put some more overtop? I don't have any at my house so if I'm going to go get it is there anything else I should get as well?
I'm not going to overclock it...should I leave the fans at 100% or should I put them on auto? I don't mind the noise its not to bad. The computer is in a antec case
