AS5 spreading out using bankcard, room/environment temp calibrated at 30°C, system was shut down twice every day to let the paste "cool" down. Load Averages: day1: 36.7°C -- Max temp: 38°C day2: 36.4°C -- Max temp: 37°C day3: 36°C -- Max temp: 37°C Testing now with Arctic's methods, blob of AS5 in the middle and letting the heatsink spread it out. |
interesting...! |
test over 24 hours, full stressed, 2 shutdowns of 10min, temps are no different from the other method at this time. and the margin of error is within 0.5°C. On to the CoolerMaster Premium, that stuff is hard to spread out! ended up using the same "dot in the middle" method, much easier and same effect! |
CM Premium: DAY1 36.9°C -- Max temp: 38°C DAY2 36.4°C -- Max temp: 37°C DAY3 36.1°C -- Max temp: 37°C must be said though, that this is a load average, with fluctuations, I will include max reached temps for each day also, |

use the blob in the middle method, fast & effective, as you can see by the results, it equals AS5 performance |
AS5: day1: 36.7°C -- Max temp: 38°C day2: 36.4°C -- Max temp: 37°C day3: 36°C -- Max temp: 37°C CM Premium: DAY1 36.9°C -- Max temp: 38°C DAY2 36.4°C -- Max temp: 37°C DAY3 36.1°C -- Max temp: 37°C |
how big should that blob be? they're equal if we see the results... |
hard to put in words, so I have taken pictures of the blob, before & after, you can see it spread out very neatly all over the core. online soon btw AS3 is performing far from bad either, hovering around 6-7°C over environment temperature. |
AS3: DAY1: 36.8°C -- Max temp: 38°C |
