|

Hello,
I use Arctic Ceramique and temperature is lower for about 5 degrees between Arctic normal silicon.
What model of the thermal paste you recommend ? _________________ Visit ABC CPU - Virtual CPU Museum. |

Arctic Silver is 2 x more expensive as Arctic Ceramique. That paste I use only in my PC, to test cpus I use normal silicon type H in 12 g tube for 1,5 USD  _________________ Visit ABC CPU - Virtual CPU Museum. |

well like i said, i use my as5 tube constantly and have lent it to friends etc, and its still very heavy, so id imagine its at least half full
and its a lot better performing.
if youre just using it to test, id just pick up a generic tube of the white silicon stuff and use that. its maybe $1-2 usd for a small tube of that that would last you quite a while. |

Please read my last post in this topic. I wrote same as you
Arctic Silver VS Ceramique is very very small diffrence (about 1 degree) in performance but Ceramique cost half.
Special feature of Cer is that he not transfer electric
All Arctic paste are good and I don't want to talk which is better. I only want to know who and what use  _________________ Visit ABC CPU - Virtual CPU Museum. |
