Besides AS5, there's also MX-1 frm Arctic Cooling. U could read various reviews & make a conclusion urself. The best conclusion 'll always be ur own testing

QUOTE(Imaizumi @ Jul 17 2006, 08:28 PM) I just got this Arctic Ceramique....should I apply it? Wht risk it's gonna pose żNo risk? Im having doubts now on applying it after hearing this. And can I clean my previous compound with cutex?  Can just use ethanol QUOTE(mADmAN @ Jul 17 2006, 08:37 PM) my answer would be MX-1.. Dats rite; hard 2 come by hereit performs on par (or some reviews even say better) than AS5. but the advantage of MX-1 is that it takes a much longer time to deteriorate compared to AS5 according to reviews. disadvantage....not easy to find.... ull probably only get it if u buy the AC Freezer coolers.

QUOTE(blaxez @ Sep 12 2006, 10:15 PM) Will there be any side effects by using tissue?  QUOTE(mengsuan @ Sep 13 2006, 02:08 PM) Tissue paper may break into pieces and leave all the bulu bulu. These will reduce the conductivity of heat as tissue papers are poor conductors. Just dont use too cheapo tissues lah. Otherwise should b fine. Many forumers hav also done it dis way  |

QUOTE(joylay83 @ Nov 24 2006, 09:25 PM) definately better Nope, I donterm... anyone selling liquid metal here???  bombman u selling?? EDIT:  err... i googled for 'liquid metal thermal compound' and i think i am changing my mind http://www.viperlair.com/forums/showthread.php?p=46981 http://www.frostytech.com/permalink.cfm?NewsID=46586 http://www.silentpcreview.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=35979 QUOTE(empire23 @ Nov 24 2006, 09:47 PM) Remember that the liquid metal (probably gallium arsenide) retards aluminium's ability to create a protective oxide layer, so using it on anything with aluminium is a nono. QUOTE(sHawTY @ Nov 24 2006, 11:17 PM) What about using it on copper? Nope. This is due to aluminium's high reactivity compared to copper. They're world's apart indeed (those who study chemistry knw dis well) Will it "eat" copper too? QUOTE(id86 @ Nov 27 2006, 10:35 PM) is it have other methods other than lapping to remove oxide layer or dont want it to form? Chemically but not feasible unless u hav own lab w/ safety equipments, necessary apparatus so on.Dilute sol (2M) of Sodium Hydroxide is normally used to clean aluminium & acetic acid for copper |
