im telling him to use a temp gun because if he is a newbie at it, if he relies on touching the heatsink to determine temp he really won't know if it is being done correctly or not. anything above 60 c feels pritty fricken hot, a temp gun will confirm if you have to go hotter or not. like i said, 80 minimum to 100 degrees. if he's a newb he'll touch it at 60 and think, yep it's ok, when infact its too cool.

anyway the only diff between inferno and my method is pritty much the first tank.
