I have an Asus Maximus VI Impact motherboard and I fitted the Zalman CNPS8900 cooler http://www.zalman.com/global/product/Product_Read.php?Idx=468 and when I boot it, immediately coretemp reads 80+ going upto 95+. Sometimes it wont boot because it of temp and asks to go in bios. It was a real tight fit, the screws didnt go down all the way but its tight when trying to screw in. It felt like the heatsink did sit on top of the cpu and applied a pea style themal paste.
I set the fan speed to Turbo in bios but not making real difference. Thinking a reseat of the cooler again?
