Why not? Mainly because I want to run my CPU FSB 1:1 with my RAM.Quote:

My vdroop is sooo bad, that I have to set 1.537 in the bios for 1.456v 100% loaded in windows.Quote:

Please give your Shin Etsu mount, as you have it, more time. I have some new stuff, Shin and D7coming inbound too. I've got a strong hunch D7 and Shin Etsu both have much longer set times than AS5, etc.....I will be posting data to this effect soon......Trust me, don't pull it yet.....So far, I believe in the D7, but being scientific, we have to know, longer term, what happens.....Quote:

All i have to say is WOW, this is some good TIM.
Rig:
Q6600 GO @ 3.7GHz
CPU-Z vcore: 1.44V, set at 1.4625V in BIOS
ASUS P5K Premium
Ambient Temp: ~22C
about 15 minutes between tests @ 100% load
Original TIM AS5, ~6 months old. I used the grain of rice in the center method with AS5.
I forgot to check the idle temps with the AS5,:shrug: so i only have load temps.
Load
Core 0: 68 c
Core 1: 68 c
Core 2: 66 c
Core 3: 66 c
ICD, pea size blob, twisted a few degrees to each side during application.
Load
Core 0: 63 c
Core 1: 63 c
Core 2: 62 c
Core 3: 62 c
That is a 4C to 5C drop in load temps. This stuff gets my vote.:up:
From my original temperatures of 63-62-62-63, I am now down to 62-60-60-61. I think I have got this stuff installed for about a week now. Ambients were the same.
This might help you out. http://www.jab-tech.com/Thermalright...t-pr-3605.htmlQuote:

Are you saying that I will not be able to mouny my Infinity with that? Right now I have no back plate with screws so the motherboard bends a little, which means I really need a back plate.Quote:

Ambient = 23.27c
For me it performed no better, actually a little worse than MX-2 with approx. the exact pressure applied. Possibly a convex blocks effects its performance?
Idle:
Core 0: 34
Core 1: 34
Core 2: 32
Core 3: 32
Load:
Core 0: 44
Core 1: 44
Core 2: 44
Core 3: 43
You've got a lot of room for more OCing with those temps Sig. Why don't you try to push your chip further?Quote:

Now and keep in mind that in the last week here room temps have jumped at least 2C:
45-45-45-44
Solid 3-4C drop over AS5..:up:
In appreciation of your generosity Mr. Tastymanatees and because your product is just plain good I decided to do a little advertising for you.

I beat you to it! Look right above your post there, haha. Your advertisement was more in depth though.Quote:
