Koslov: mmh nice performance. Better than the test units produced by Leufken.
Fixitt: thx for refreshing our memories. My point is, if you have a mirror surface, dont use arctic silver. For one the "performance" of AS is questionable at best, and it's way too thick.
BB2K: i use 3 different pastes:
- Arctic silver i had for free from DangerDen
- 'Arctic copper' i had for free from a company next door where they have an extruder (this thing *badly* needs cooling... they use buckets of thermal paste, and by buckets i mean it... so i got a big container of it hehe)
- 'no-name' white goo i had for free with each heatsink i bought , each computer i mounted, and watercooling HW i ordered.
I use Arctic silver / copper for the GPU and NB where chip surfaces are rough. And white goo on the CPU. AMD cores are *very* flat (at least, mine is).
