come on fellows, run some calcs
postulate the thermal 'resistance' due to x thickness of Cu;
then calculate the difference due to the decreased resistance of Ag
account for all of the real deltaT between the CPU and the coolant;
of interest is ONLY that amount between the face of the bp at the TIM joint and the bp surface in contact with the coolant
morphling1 may well measure 'something'; but there are so many other variables a great deal larger than the change, that no conclusion could be possible
BTW, I have 6 Ag wbs; no silver bullets
but silver is a good looker for sure
