This is why I always put heatsink goop on the chip, without it the
heatsink/fan doesn't do much. The problems you can g

Most CPU fans I've seen come with a pad of conductive [something] which
goes between the processor and the heatsink. I would think that something
like this would be essential, given that the surfaces are probably not
perfectly flat (on a nano scale).

Ok. Thanks.
Also, thanks to everyone else who has answered this same question.
You're too many to reply one by one!

steppings 9731 (or so) and earlier. These are no longer on the market, and AMD
replaces them for linux users and others who could really be affected. (It's
