Arctic Cooling MX2 Thermal Compound Review

jmke · 13th August 2007, 10:38

For those of you who don’t know what a thermal compound does
allow me to explain. Its job is to transfer heat as efficiently as
possible between a heatsink and a processor (or any other such similar
setup). Without a thermal compound in place CPUs would overheat, as
there are far too many micro imperfections in the base of a heatsink
(and top of a CPU) to be able to effectively transfer heat (not to
mention that air trapped between the two would hinder this already
poor performance).

it seems so, hopefully he can close the hole in the " Esselbach Storyteller CMS System Version 1.8". The risk of using a widely available CMS?
