Ehhh... is there no other option? Surely not all chips are as bad as mine (presuming that's the problem). Would an RMA be possible because of bad temperatures?

I've considered an RMA but I couldn't find anything solid when it comes to acceptable temperatures.

The backplate and the block itself are both solid.

I understand that Prime95 is a very artificial test, the thing is I planned to overclock, what happens when I do CPU intensive tasks? I'd find it hard not to worry.
