Interesting stuff,but look what it does to alluminium,if you get a drop on any alluminium it's unstoppable

Ouch !!!

 

[james.miller]

yup, great stuff if you want to disolve alu. oh wait you dont want to do that??




stay away then, tbh.

If youre not using any alu its fine... I'm worried about it getting on the SMDs near the core (no IHS here) but otherwise I'd give it a try.

I am with a copper waterblock so I dont worry about corrosion.

wht I am interest are temps... cause if it is only 2degrees diff from AS5
then I dont rally think it is worth it....

it does look harder to spread and clean... so I am still thinking about it

 

[Creidiki]

The only relatively serious test i've seen points at ~1.5c difference on average.

Anyone know what IHS's are made out of?

[Creidiki]

funny you should ask, there's someone on xtremesystems asking the same thing...

Have a look at the manufacturer's site

they give full instractions... u'll see it at the right navigation bar

apparently they recomend any metal polisher!!!

do a google search for "coollaboratory" which is the company that makes it
