Coolaboratory Liquid Pro Vs Artic Silver 5 Test results

[Martinm210]

Martin those are some excellent results.

Just a note for clarification, the CL Pads or basically version 2 of CLP will work with Aluminum sinks with no problem at all and the cleanup is much easier than CLP since they provide instructions with their own cleaning kit included with the pads.

Thanks, suprised me too. I think the few reviews that didn't note much difference were either air coolers or they tried to use traditional paste methods to apply it. I think it's really important to take your time and rub this stuff around until it bonds.

I haven't tried the pads, have you? I was thinking the liquid performs better if applied right and you don't have to purposely melt anything.

This is where I got mine:

But I see they also have the pad version.

I'll probably stick with the liquid, I should be able to get 10 or more applications with one tube.

Not looking forward to it, but I think I'll reset the GPU and chipset blocks with this stuff. The chipset scares me a little with no IHS, but I'm going for it anyhow..
