      I had the very same problem recently installing a Zalman Infin1ty cooler on my X850 Pro 40 - 82Degrees in under 2 seconds when i had ATITool running!!!!!!
      My problem was that i didnt clean the old thermal paste with 100% Acetone, the nail polish remover i used had some other crap in it, i took the cooler off, and ehhh, cleaned it with Jack Daniels instead( id definately recommend something better though lol ), i also applied more thermal paste the second time, did the job, now 32Degrees idle and 65 max

            :) I personally found rubbing alcohol worked well too. I'm sure everyone has a bottle of that in the medicine cabinet.
