    your original heatsink fan assembly didn't come from intel, did it?

    that is probably why system was shutting down as not making proper contact between cpu & heatsink so cpu overheated.

    which means you had a big air gap between the heatsink & cpu. those clips, were they like hooks or barbed posts?

    normally a boxed cpu comes with proper heatsink fan assembly so appears your cpu was not in sealed box

    You did put some kind of thermal solution between the cpu and heatsink right? Whether it be a pad, thermal grease, etc? And if so how much did you use?
