Thanks for the Reply. Your “new” Board is as bad as mine, which i got replaced. And my bad Board even had more Points in CB23 with about 14700.
I Understand that you are frustrated.
No you shouldnt replace it with the Noctua, get yourself PTM7950 from Honeywell. I got genuine one from Amazon. PTM7950 is the closest to Liquid Metal you can get, without its Downsides.
Its really hard to get the Heatsink of, when their Liquid Metal is hardened. You can look in the Batch 20 Guild
Their was a Discussion about this Problem and i did my Modification Log there.
