Well, this is my first post here, and i´m about to add more wood to the fire!!!!!! but what the heck
I recently took my rig completly apart for cleaning and some basic modding.
So I took my vantec aeroflow out, and guess what I found:
The cpu left markings on it, I could see the lines of the cpu codes, impossible to read though.
I´m currently using a good old thunderbird 1200. I guess the high mounting pressure of the aeroflow, plus the CPU markings on the core, and the high temps of the setup all came together for this.
The mobo (yea, yea, crappy sensor) reads high 40´s to low 50´s , and the hs has been mounted for at least 3 months.
My point is, the original hypothesis is still valid, though more testing is needed to validate it, or any other.
To finish this already long post,
Does anybody now if silver is softer than copper at a certain temp?, What about when copper is 10-20C hotter?
have fun!
