Oh... this is for your COMPUTER. I thought this was used to lower your body's core temperature and, my, the thing looked HUGE. But it only has 3.5 grams of goo for your CPU. ...guess it might fit after all.

Overrated. This stuff does NOTHING above and beyond any other thermal compound.

#2 agreed; whether you mounted the heatsink properly makes much more difference than the thermal paste

Spend the extra buck and get the better stuff.

So that means it is very useful for someone cannot mount the heatsink propely?

This has been proven to work wel on Man vs. Wild, in the arid Saraha desert. Eaten with cow dung, it's proven thermal efficiency will reduce the full of crap factor by 3-5 degrees celcius.

Interesting, As this lowered temps on all our PC's by up to 12 degrees replacing the 3 strip Intel OEM silver compound that comes with their copper core coolers. Wow, I must have had all 4 not mounted correctly! Amazing info there guys, really!

Come on, he squeezed and drank the juice out of fresh elephant dung on Man vs Wild. But I assume that if the dung were not fresh, adding this might give you a better yield.

Mummm, elephant dung juice, my favorite! Now at Costco!

One note: You do not apply this in a dab in the middle or a thick clump, apply in a very thin layer 9you don't need much at all) across the chip. If you want to lower temps a few degrees more than lightly sand down the top layer of the IHS to the copper. If you want even lower temps then remove the IHS completely and use an aftermarket cooler with tension screws and place feet on the corners like the older socket A AMD chips. (Last method not recommended unless you know what your doing!)

Looks like a plug.

Oooh ooh!!! Me and my boyfriend australopithecus use this for anal lube on special occasions in other words every day!!! Its so funny when after he gives me lots and lots of big fat sloppy wet bacon pedo kisses on my bottom he has a silver nose!!! LOL!!! ROFL!!! LMAO!!! PWND!!!

Waste of money, much like the taxes we paid so that there would be special ed classes for #11.

Oooh ooh!!! You dont want a piece of me I will burp you up bad!!! Then I will give you lots and lots of big fat wet sloppy bacon pedo kisses on your bottom to make you feel better!!! LOL!!! ROFL!!! LMAO!!! PWND!!!

again... ?

"I don't even know what this is! This sort of thing ain't my bag, baby"

LMAO.

You just need a BB-sized drop of this and it performs better than any stock cooling compound.

Ignore the silly kiddie comments.

#2 and #3 either had a bad experience or know nothing.

I've tested this myself and found cooler temps when used. I've used this on at least 15 computers and there was a difference. This stuff works and works well.

I wonder if the real bacon is back at BB but with a different username.

#15, AKA Austin "Danger" Powers is friggin' hilarious!!

How much of a difference you see depends on what you're contrasting it with. Generally, it doesn't make enough of a difference to bother with unless you're building enough systems that you needed to buy more compound anyway and in which case the #1 thing it has going for it is the synthetic base stock formulation which unlike silicone formulations, resists separating over time and the large number of thermal cyclings a system may see if turned off once or several times a day.

Back in the open flipchip era ,P3 and Athlon XP this made a difference within 2 years or so of use. Today it's more applicable to chipsets and video cards.

The other bigger difference is convenience, some factory applied thermal material heat sets so you have a harder time getting the heatsink off later, while that should never be a problem with this.

So basically all those citing initial minor temp differences when first used are missing the things that make it significant. Even so, plenty of people manage to get by without it and you can too if you can't put aside the $6 out of your milk money.
