Below is how does the thermal paste seperate when I installed the S1283 vertically. I wonder that how you guy put the thermal paste when using the S1283 cooler. Normally, I put a small drop on center of the proc as what I did for few previous cooler. Somehow, I remount the cooler recently but the temperature is higher a lot than before, 3.3GHz full load @ 60~61'c with surrounding temperature 32'c in the morning. I recheck the mounting and there is nothing wrong. Maybe someone can enlighten me?

so, the thermal paste should apply evenly on the IHS only and both the IHS and the base of the s1283?

not sure about the ultimate method, but usually i'll spread it all even on the IHS, but no too thick....

this method so far considered successful as i've even removed a heatsink with AM2 proc stuck on the base(came off together when i remove the heatsink, heck, the clip is still locked) sweat.gif
