Thermal Talk

[kikicoco1334]

i was just wondering like how much dose it really matter when you are playing sub zero cuz i been using that cheap cheap bestbuy dynex thermal stuff
http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Dynex%26%23153%3B+-+Thermal+Compound/9609458.p?id=1218152478854&skuId=9609458&st=thermal&cp=1&lp=1

and it didn't seem like made a huge change when i am running LN2 or even Dice

i wish i still have that pix i took with all the thermal i have used and under LN2 it didn't make any diff AT ALL!

so please enlighten me :Hi:

btw i get those dynex stuff for SUPER cheap so

Try some sliced American Cheese next time. Should be quite cheaper :D

I have some old thermal compound from 1992 I use and like you, think there is little to be gained except maybe in the case of an air cooler.

I use toothpaste, works great and cheap too, :P

Deli style or individually wrapped?

We usually get White American sliced really thin. (Can almost see through it ;))

It can make a big difference at full LN2 temps. It's probably a non-issue with dry ice.

moved to extreme overclocking section from general discussion...

[kikicoco1334]

guys what the hell man American Chees, toothpaste?

thank you superman for moving it
and rickss for keepin it on track

but naw for real dose it really make a diff when you are putting the computer under sub -100C
cuz everytime when i put my chip LN2 my thermal freezs and it didn't make much of a diff when it's with different thermals...

i was just also wondering...
how much do you guys run with those thermals cuz i go though a tube of it ever like 10 ~ 15 benches (i do wipe off the old thermal everytime and put new ones on) also the bestbuy tube is 5g ea

[Splave]

yes it does make a difference, thats why everyone is using OCZ freeze. Ive seem myself an extra 200mhz cpu tests vantage and wprimes

[kikicoco1334]

:eek2:

oh my!
didn't know what yeah i gonna try get some of that now :D

[OC Maximus]

As mentioned before, OCZ Freeze is some great stuff. :thumbsup:

[Witchdoctor]

Bren was getting in quanity, not sure if he has any left though

Personally I do not know on LN2.... but I will soon,

On air I can tell you Tx2 out preforms it ... have done the testing personally

but my OCZ Freeze is ready for when I mount up the new pot FTW

[kikicoco1334]

aw! hell i have some of those tuniq stuff at home somewhere!
but yeah dude LN2 is like drugs once you have a little you always want more and more and more!

[OC Maximus]
