Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut usage

SavellM · 23 Aug 2017 at 10:43

Hey guys,

I'm thinking about delidding my CPU and using this stuff: Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut
2 questions:
1) It says no aluminum , so the IHS is not aluminum correct?
2) On a GPU, with a stock NVIDIA blower style, Titan X, this is also not aluminum correct?

Just want to make sure I dont damage the blocks at all.
I'll also be using it with a Corsair H115i ontop of the IHS, is this OK too?

Thanks guys.

1) correct
2) unsure, it probably has a copper transfer point
3) yeah it will be fine as copper.

Thanks James,

When I took off the stock blower earlier on in life, it had a silver contact point, not like a copper cut out or anything so am a bit unsure.

I would say its very unlikely to be alu but naturally you want to make sure first!

Theyre copper with nickel plating, I lap mine down to the copper anyway though as they dont seem to come very level, at least the ones ive had hadnt. I dropped my temps quite a lot after lapping it square.
