Thermal Paste Roundup: AS5 vs MX1 vs CM Prem These pastes were tested: - Arctic Cooling MX1 - Arctic Silver AS 5 - Arctic Silver Ceramique - Coolermaster CM Premium (Ptk-001) - Titanium Nano Blue - Coollaboratories liquid metal On this sytem: - Abit AG8 - 3 RD Eye - Pentium 4 - 630 - Speeze EE507B7 ChillMax the results are interesting... or not at all depending on what interests you ;) [attachment] Source: http://translate.google.com/translat...%2Fbericht.htm |
the results of the liquid metal look :mad: want to test it, too bad I got an alu heatsink :( |
no burn in time, which is required for all pastes, so the results are not real world ones |

Maybe if you shuffle your heatsinks and CPUS all the time, but a lot of users just want good thermal paste because it's still a quite cheap way of reducing temps. |
Rutar, feel free to do some tests? ;) |
the way that liquid metal performs without burn-in (dunno if it needs a burn-in) cant be beaten be the other thermal pastes, even with burn-in. BTW, burn-in is overrated I think? Got CM premium here and I don't notice a difference between fresh applied thermal paste or the one that is on the cpu for more then a year |
2-3°C is overrated after burn-in but when the margin between the pastes is 1-2°C.. it might be something to test after all. and how long will that Liquid Metal work?:) |
Considering the materials used in it, probably forever. |
