Mine is working perfectly now for 2 days. I removed all excess paste. "Man they over saturated the chips". I only left the original paste temporarely, incase I had to return the unit. Didnt want any way for them to say I messed the unit up. I placed all heatsinks back and made sure not to overtighten the screws. Just enough preassure to make contact.
I also noticed with the cove off you can blast the fans 100% and there is no fan noise. Put the cover back on and it sounds like a Jet Plane.
