Below is how does the thermal paste seperate when I installed the S1283 vertically. I wonder that how you guy put the thermal paste when using the S1283 cooler. Normally, I put a small drop on center of the proc as what I did for few previous cooler. Somehow, I remount the cooler recently but the temperature is higher a lot than before, 3.3GHz full load @ 60~61'c with surrounding temperature 32'c in the morning. I recheck the mounting and there is nothing wrong. Maybe someone can enlighten me?

QUOTE(AllnGap @ Mar 29 2008, 05:54 PM) owh, no wonder like that.........use a paper to spread the thermal paste evenly........btw, i already banked in the balance to you  QUOTE(sukhoi37 @ Mar 29 2008, 08:09 PM) I got the higher temperature with that method as well. so, the thermal paste should apply evenly on the IHS only and both the IHS and the base of the s1283?This is because of the drop wont be wide enough to let the heatpipe get in touch with processor IHS Thermalpaste should be applied to all heatpipes in order to dissipate the heat faster. |

QUOTE(kmarc @ Apr 7 2008, 07:40 AM) I've tried the rice grain method and it doesn't work well. Like what our forumers has said, a lot of TIM will just go into the grooves. You'll find that it doesn't spread out nicely, and the side heatpipes don't get much TIM at all. got pic? it worth billion words Furthermore, if you attempt to put more TIM in the middle, you'll end up with a thick paste in the middle, causing less contact.... For me, I just apply a thin line of TIM on all 3 heatpipes. Maybe a blob on the aluminium plat too. When I remove the HSF after a while, I noticed that it does cover the proc and based of the HSF evenly.....  |

I just replace the AS5 with TX2, and applied the last method as shown by the website but the temperature still approximately same, 63-64'c during full load, 3.5GHz @ 1.32v. is the temperature normal for c2d @ 3.5ghz?
