motherboard chips help!!!

You said you used Arctic Silver??

If so how much? Ive been using this stuff on my computer builds for years and i cant count how many people over apply the stuff. Its meant to fill microscopic deformities on the metal surfaces, put too much and it turns into a insulator. The best way to apply is is to put a dab on the chip and on the heatsink then take your hand put it in a zip lock bag and spread it over the chip and heatsink you want to spread it to a haze, yes just a light haze. If you need you can use a lint free cloth (also can use a coffee filter) to remove some of the stuff so you get it to a haze.

I barely put any on there. I mean half a grain of rice. And i found my problem. 

I have never ever done this before. The fan is inside out.. Its blowing out and needs to be sucking in.
