Do you think it will do enough to fix the problem though? It just seems unlikely to me since the problems were there before I moved the heatsink. It seemed to be fastened on the CPU well to start with. So I just am doubting that it will solve the problem. I suppose I can try it though if I can find a store around here that has it. Don't know of many local computer stores really.
