I was trying to replace the original thermal grease under the spreader with Arctic Silver III. Apparently, I never managed to get the spreader back into proper contact with the core.

PS: Interesting article. Now.. has anyone tried running a bare core Northwood in a Shuttle XPC? How does the heat-pipe doodad in them work with the slightl lower height of the PIV?
