    Toddsucks, Mofo Mamma's Boy, and El Gordo- use this to seal your foul mouths up. Nobody likes you, but each other.

    I got this from them a while back and free shipping took forever. Something about UPS and USPS joining forces ... for the slowest shipping time ever.

    YESBUY is dead slow!

    Don't be in a hurry if you buy; 2 weeks or more is typical unless you pay for faster shipping.

    I think I've seen this particular apparatus on the new Jenna Haze films... or was it a Belladonna films? It's one of those "Big Black Beast" series.

    I saw this used by Wolverine in X-Men 2 to finish off his female alter-ego. I think he used more than 3.5g though.

    Thermal tape has very few uses today because even when the heat generation of a part stayed the same, the heat density went up with die shrinks. IOW, used to be you could at least get away with using thermal tape for memory 'sinks, but not anymore. If the memory is hot enough to need 'sinks at all it'll need thermal epoxy or grease (when there are mounting holes for a strip 'sink with pins on each end).

    As for alumina, good stuff, useful if there's any chance of getting compound on chip pins or traces, but normally it's not a factor with a GPU or CPU 'sink. The alumina also does a good field polish on rough 'sinks, and does nearly as well for less money. On the other hand, it's not that much less, unless you assemble computers for a living you won't use up 3.5 grams fast enough to appreciate the price difference and AS5 is a couple degrees better when all else is equal.

    That's not enough to get up out of a chair to find the AS5 if you had a tube of Alumina in your hand already, but since you are instead in a deal thread for AS5, might as well get it.
