If someone were to install a Heat Sink on a new AMD Athlon 64 3700+ and the Heat Sink does not work. How long would it take for the CPU to get Damage? I am having a local store build my system and they just called me and said my Heat Sink is not working at all. I am very worried that it could have damaged my brand new Athlon 64 3700+. Am I in big trouble? I got the Heat Sink from Newegg and it was DOA! So they are sending me a new one. But I am really worried. The guy at the PC shop said he wont know if the cpu is damaged until he gets a new Heat Sink. Why did this have to happen to me?????? I was all happy this morning because I thought my new PC was going to be ready to pick up today. This I get this bad news.
