Everyone is recommending this stuff and I am getting some they claim it lowers the temp even up to 15 degrees! It is only 6 dollars just telling everyone in case you were thinking you want ice cycles on you're CPU or something.

I might get some when I order a new cpu.

I found this to be a bit funny.

Quote:

Cons: Mildly conductive, so be careful of those traces. Arctic Ceramique might be safer for applications that are close to circuits, since it's completely non-conductive. Also tastes NASTY.

Other Thoughts: If you are holding the tube between your teeth while working, after you apply the AC5, put the cap back on BEFORE you put it back in your mouth.

Some people's video cards get really hot (specifically if the fan is really close to another card, and therefore could not get enough cool air to keep cool).

Welcome to 5 years ago. 15 degrees is a gross overestimate too.

With that said, it is the best thermal gel.

Thank you for pointing that out. I have been using the Arctic products for many years dating back to when I moded my Geforce 2 to hell and back with heatsinks galore.

The stuff works, just be careful not to use Arctic Alumina, aka AATA, as a thermal paste, it does much more than that Wink
