Hello.

Got my p182 case today and well made up with it. Design is ace and the cables can be tidied a lot better. ( PSU pace was a little tight but got there in the end lol.)

Also re applied my AC Freezer Pro 7 & with some AC Silver 5 paste and as soon as I checked the temps were down by at least 25c from what they were on before with the ****** thermal bonding pad stuff :mad:

Here are the temps as they stand after a couple of hours and usage

Are they ok???

May now look to overclock my Q6600 slightly now maybe to 3.0 / 3.2 what do you think???

Thanks

So you took off the pad which would have been mx-1, possibly mx-2, and used ac5... noooooo! (i swear by the mx-1/2, out performs as5 ;))
 
do the small FFT or FTT whatever :P Test on prime then get back with the results.. So before you had AS5 on you had temps of 75? [not even loaded]
 
I think he means before the re-seat/re-paste/new case, its the overall temp drop of the above, not just the paste change..

The stuff I had on before was Akasa thermal adhesive tape and it was ****. Took nearly an hour to remove the heatsink from the heatspreader lol.

I am running prime now, small FFT. In my old case with the thermal paste my Quad ran at like 80+ after about an hour of general usage lol.

SO this AC silver stuff and my new setup has obviously worked wonders :)
