Doesn't matter.  A little too much or a little too little and you can have a problem.  Or you might have rocked the HS/Fan putting it on and created a small air pocket.

Regardlass, if the CPU temps aren't going too high under a stress test then that's not the problem.  My guess is the CPU is running out of voltage.

Nope, CPU needed a little more juice.
