Re: have I broke my PC
Sounds a bit eeeek!!!
I'd try taking it off and putting it back on again but i'm no expert.

Try taking it off and then re-attaching it.
It sounds like it may just not be attached properly.

Re: have I broke my PC
you need thermal paste to be in between the heat sink and the processer, try putting a wee bit more on as the processer cant come in direct contact with the heat sink
