[QUOTE="cranky, post: 470453, member: 9160"] If you're locking up it's pretty sure the heat, and I would rate those temps as pessimistic (the CPU wouldn't survive 100 degrees) but indicative. Are you sure you've seated the HS right? It shouldn't move at all under pressure (the stock HSF) and the cam lever needs to be locked down tight. Remove the HSF and check the imprint of thermal compound on the heatspreader and the HSF base. AM2 HSF retention is pretty good, and results in uniform imprint on the stock HSF. A defective bracket, heatsink, or user error will result in uneven print. [/QUOTE]
