Thermal paste

[GEO Me]

Better yet, use dielectric paste, which is just as good, usually
cheaper, and won't stain clothing.

Any brands in particular?

Thanks

Geo

At room temperature, silver conducts electricity slightly better
than copper.

Then what did you mean by:

"Copper conducts better than silver,..."

So to what CPU applicable temperature are you referring?

Your dislike of Arctic Silver sounds like a personal problem.

Arctic Silver killed my brother in 'Nam.

The question is whether it helps reduce CPU temperature
when compared with other readily available heatsink greases.

Some people obsess over temperatures and think that cooling their CPUs
a few extra degrees will improve reliability (only for excessively
overclocked systems) or longevity (not at all). People should instead
aim for adequate cooling, as opposed to cooling for the sake of
cooling, and use the cheapest chemicals that can achieve this.

Radio Shack, Loctite, Permatex, MG Chemicals, GC Electronics,
Thermalloy, Dow Chemical -- almost anything but mystery brands from
99-cent stores. Electronics supplies are sometimes cheaper than
computer stores.
