Another Thermal Talk
well..
recently i got to thinking since i monna be testing all kinds of hardwares and i really don't like using my good & $$$ thermal on random hardwards i may not even get to bench on... so i am thinking about getting something super cheap and just gonna work for like docking the cooler on the chip and see if it works kinda thing and i was wondering which kind should i get? 30g Silver Thermal Grease Paste CPU Heatsink Compound - $8.89 http://www.ebay.com/itm/30g-Silver-T...4&cmd=ViewItem 30G Thermal Grease Heatsink Compound Paste CPU VGA - $1.89 http://www.ebay.com/itm/30G-Thermal-...item2563c85d2e 30g Thermal Grease Paste CPU Heatsink Compound Grey Color - $3.99 http://www.ebay.com/itm/30g-Thermal-...item19ca4a8328 since they are all gonna be coming from china and i monna have to wait for a long ass time to have it be here... is it worth the extra on those cheap stuff? cuz cash is kinda (VERY) short on my hand right now, and i am out of my cheap stuff now and i just found some of my Athlon chips and kinda wanna test it out sometime during my spring break |
As said via IM just slap toothpaste on there
http://www.dansdata.com/goop.htm I agree that substitutes or cheap stuff are more about longevity. Will toothpaste last in a 24/7? system? hell no. Prolly wont last an hour :) But for others, yeah the cheap it is fine if you slapping it on, checking and wiping it back off. Might need to CLEAN a little more often but I almost NEVER clean and I throw IC7 diamond paste on everything (you can get it free a lot of the time) |
thanks alot mate!
