This looks normal. All computers in my college do the same thing.

Of course thire will be problem. You will have re-apply the TIM.

its a new processor ...i don't likee to apply t.p ...btw the temperature is under 40 at no load

also removing cpu fan and 24pin power from psu is also causing problem ...its too tight...so i left it

Did the new processor's heatsink have a layer of Thermal Paste?
No I don't think you will need to reapply just for opening once (although it will be good if you can)

And you can't leave any connections open just because it's tight or anything.

Then you may continue with the current paste and re-apply when some thermal problems occur :twisted: Air gets trapped inside the paste if you remove the HS and fix it with the old paste.

Things are always tight when they are brand new :D

That's why i say : don't use heavily, use conservatively.
If you know what i mean :meditate: :lol:

@op do one thing clear BIOS(If you don't know just remove the button like battery inside wait 10secs & reinsert). What i have seen is this generally occurs when CMOS battery is near dead.

But the PC is new.
Temps are normal. Do a test under full load and post here.

Did you mess with registry/system files? Try system restore to restore to a time prior to when problems started occurring or if possible, do a CLEAN install of Win7 again.
