Just out of curiosity, which processor are you using? I have an AMD x2 5600 with a huge HS fan w/ Artic Silver and normally run anywhere from 35c-44c.
I’m running my AMD x2 3800+ oc’d with a AC Pro 64 Cooler headsink with AS and run at 30c normal, under load around 45c.

I thought you were full of it so I did indeed look it up and low and behold:

Apparently diaper rash cream works even better. However I don’t think it’s a permanent solution, because doesn’t toothpaste cause corrosion over time?
Anyways, I think I have some paste down here in the lab somewhere. You can PM or AIM me if you want me to look for it.
