I'm using NC-U6 stock mounting, push pin that is, any idea how to get a better mounting rather than the stock mounting?

Jingting?
I'll google for it.

By the way, the chipset heatsink from zaward that you linked sure is weird.
The most weird chipset heatsink i ever see.

Thermal paste only gives the medium for heat transfer bro. It doesnt help in anyways to damp any vibration... and my post earlier is edited... so ignore it

if the mounting is good..y bother abt the vibration?

Well, of course not at the human eye lor, bad contact is imminent if there is vibration, and of course we cant see vibration occuring in front of our eyes, but temperatures can tell and performance also can tell. Ok, Take an example, lets say u losely fit a Chipset cooler on your NB and of course u put a thermal paste on it, But since u r moving t around, as it can happen sometimes, a bad contact occurs, though thru rough eyes it seems stuck. Now when ou are overclocking, would u notice a difference? i think you would, coz of the bad contact.. due to vibrations or movements you created earlier on.

1mm is actually a big space between two contacts, coz u can use a ruler and check...its substantial for a disturbance in heat transfer.

Hmm proper mounting and minor vibration, still the thermal paste is not a significant contributor... the only significant contributor here is the contact...between the core and the cooler:) And if there is any form of vibration, it would not affect normal comp users, but in high performance or overclocking. Vibration by fans can be annoying. My verdict, passive cooling with a copper core and aluminium fins.

@coolice
wats the result of the nb8?... isit good?
