A couple of weeks ago I ordered some Artic Silver. Today the package was delivered. I put some artic silver on my CPU. I'm using a Thermaltake Dragon orb 3. Normally the temparature idle was 34 degrees. And now it's running idle at 31 degrees!
Artic Silver Rulezzz!:thumb:

They have Arctic Alumina out now which is cheaper, non conductive and in most cases works just as well if not better than the silver product by all reports so far. ;)

I guess it's a pet peeve of mine, or maybe its just that I edit too many reviews and such, but take a gander at the correct spelling of a certain word...

ARCTIC

Notice the "C" in the middle of it?
Thank you.

I didn't attempt it, but be sure, I will NEVER misspell it (again?).

And my friends used to call ME the grammar police. I guess since you are real live officer, I won't argue...:wave:
