I didn't realise that! I thought it was equal on all sides.. when my new thermal paste arrives I will give that a try and see which side is different... I know a different thermal paste will only decrease temps by a few degrees, but its better than nothing
And I didnt realise they used a different method of measuring temps, I thought the A64 chips had on-die sensors too? Oh well, apparently the C2D chips are fine upto 65*C which mine are getting nowhere near even on full load! The Ninja certainly is a good cooler
