@Ace...boards on the way. Got a question about the MX-5.
The mom & pop store I go buy my little stuff, no longer carries Artic Cooler thermal compounds; only Artic Silver. Feeling bad that I haven't patronized my local Mom & Pop store I still went ahead and bought
- ArcticClean #1 Thermal Material Remover and # 2 Thermal Surface Purifier.
- Arctic Silver Ceramique 2.5 grams.
can I still use this for your EXAMPLE OF LACK OF CONTACT WITH IP35 PRO PWM HEATSINK post?
Then hopefully Sat, I can stop by HomeDepot for your 3/4" length bolts or 1/2" bolts
I'm just scratching my head about the two 40mm fans

Would removing them and replacing them with, lets say a Thermaltake CL-C0034 Copper Fan&Heatsinks be better
How about Thermalright HR-05/or HR-05-SLI

Or is this too much for someone not OC'ing?
