Anyway, I don't think 15 minutes makes any notable difference. I use ASC myself and have had no problems whatsoever. Arctic Silver have some very nice step by step instructions on their website. Cheers Olle

Coz later will remove the cpu that ZuePhok installed for me to change mobo. There you go... http://www.arcticsilver.com/arctic_s...structions.htm So, I'll use toilet paper later... Don't think it matters even if you apply the paste incorrectly, it just shuts itself off. Happens to the P4 beside me.. ran fine after applying more white gooey paste in the lab.

But now all thermal compounds are optimised for both. The only difference between them is probably the conductivity. AC is non-conductive, more suitable for AXP due to the bridges around the core. P4 should work with both without an problems. |
