out of the 800 or so computers I've sold through my retail pc store in the last year.... All have had AMD processors. At least half have ben Athlon64's with IHS on them.

I've only had two of them report extremely abnormal temps. Of those 2, both cases were caused by faulty motherboards.

I fail to believe that re-mounting on the same cpu will degrade the IHS weld to the core. It is either on right, or not on right. It doesn't magically start coming off by itself. ... or at least I've never heard of it happening.
