Diamonds are a girls best friend

I'd laugh if the people who asked for the diamond got ceramic, and the people who asked for ceramic got diamond...

Actually no I won't, I'll cry.

benihana put his name down for the ceramic and got the diamond sample, brilliant...

Hey!

Gutted, a friend of mine purchased the ceramic stuff to replace his arctic silver five, and reported results that are no better and infact worse than the AS5 he had on there before. Was really looking forward to trying this diamond stuff

received email but no delivery yet although the items I have ordered online have arrived all over the place at different days not in taking with the postage paid.

Our postman is delivering our mail at 4pm this week too !

Well, the diamond is £1 more expensive than the AS5, so while the ceramic is slightly worse, one imagines that the Diamond should be better than it.

Also, maybe he didn't apply it properly? Or didn't clean the old stuff off properly first? I don't know :3

Hey guys, it seems the warehouse made a boo-boo and shipped the Diamond paste to the Ceramic list, and visa versa!

I will get the correct Diamond stock sent to the correct people, so everyone will have Diamond Paste

Kavalree · 9 Dec 2010 at 20:41

I never had an e-mail and nothing ahs turned up yet, but I was on list for Diamond paste, so...should I just ride it out and see if it turns up?

thepeganator · 9 Dec 2010 at 20:44

Aha, so everyone meant to have Diamond in the first place gets both!

Not got mine anyway yet, post is awful here :/

Due like 4 or 5 things tomorrow (I hope).

Aedus · 9 Dec 2010 at 20:55

Thanks a lot Ace.

Addicted · 9 Dec 2010 at 21:09

not true! i asked for diamond and got diamond!

edit: does that mean diamond users can get the ceramic too?

tommytinkle · 9 Dec 2010 at 22:39

Hey,

Thanks very much ace

Look forward to trying the correct one

Ezyryder · 9 Dec 2010 at 23:21

Thanks mate, if you do so I will get results with both as well!

Benihana · 10 Dec 2010 at 00:12

To be fair I put my name down for Diamond, then was told it was all allocated, then changed it to ceramic and told there were 2 more Diamonds :S

Nevermind, no one is going home empty handed! More reviews at the end of the day!

Aedus · 10 Dec 2010 at 00:26

Just had a feeling they got the 2 samples mixed up, it's a nice relief that we all get the diamond after all

FMTopfan · 10 Dec 2010 at 05:17

I religiously use this even on an untouched CPU, it gets any dust or grease off. Good thing is that Arcticlean bottles are quite big for how little you end up using and last ages. Btw, is there a premium alternative to this like there now is for AS5?

bastic · 10 Dec 2010 at 09:28

it seems like there is are no royal mail services in London .... I was expecting somethnig else being delivered on tuesday and am still waiting...

INitial findings are interesting, this is on a 24/7 folding rig moving from MX3 to 24 carat...

980x @ 4.1ghz 1.36v

Temps are while folding which is relevant for me..

b4 after

64 57
64 61
62 54
59 56
65 60
61 58

Pretty big diffs really, some could be down to better application?

But sure looks good.

ARGHH THATS WITH CERAMIC NOT 24 carat, so ive been sent the wrong stuff!

Frozennova · 10 Dec 2010 at 10:29

Ace can you confirm which paste I was meant to of recieved as I got Periphelion.

I'll get results for both sorted if I was sent the incorrect paste.

Just running my tests on Periphelion on CPU and GPU.

littlepuppy · 10 Dec 2010 at 10:32

Ace Order number 3715107... Got ceramic not 24 carat, results submitted but would prefer to use the 24 carat as a test...

Felix Da Housecat · 10 Dec 2010 at 11:06

Still not got mine.

I suspect the postie has taken it.

reygjabla · 10 Dec 2010 at 11:13

How did you knew it? Me too, looks like i've been sent the wrong one. Judging by the picture posted, I got the one with the darker color but the markings says IC Diamond 24K. Well, guess I'll have to make some reviews on it then.

but, I would'nt mind getting the right one and do a review on it as well if indeed what I received is the wrong one.

Note: Seems there's no IC Periphelion recepient complaining about getting the wrong item. :rolleyes:
