Arctic MX-2 thermal paste vs Arctic silver 5

not necessarily, here in toronto the MX-2 is going for $6.50 a tube, and AS 5 is $8 (canada computers) MX-2 is also better. i've read that the Thermalright Cool Factor thermal paste that came with my Ultra-120E heatsink is even better than AS 5

Any specific brand of thermal grease? Or what about ceramique? I've lapped it before and used screws and washers, but put the thermal pad back when I was done. With screws the PWMs would rattle and buzz, which was due to too much pressure, but loosening the screws didn't help so i put the...

Has anyone replaced the PWM heatsinks on this board with something better? I'm getting terrible temps so I tried to position a 60mm fan I had over the PWM, and it dropped full load prime 95 temps from 92 celsius to 75 celsius, but the problem is there's no good way to keep the fan in place in...

I've got a question about the PWMs on the IP35-e. I'm wondering if anyone here gets a rattling / buzzing sound coming from their PWMs during high loads. I replaced the plastic spring pins with small screws to hold it down, i might put the plastic pins back in and see how that goes. My PWM...

I went further, i got a Hyper TX2... but i should have given up on pushpin heatsinks after my experience with with the stock intel heatsink. i'm now idling at 38 according to everest and 32 according to core temp, pwm is now 38. i can only conclude that the push pins on the stock heatsink...

Anyone else notice that the double post is still present with v16 BIOS? I'll try clearing cmos, but i don't think that will help.

cpu-z says the bios is 6.00 PG, i haven't updated it yet edit: well, it says "1/11/2008" so i guess it must be new? i will flash anyways, since double posting is getting annoying. Heidfirst: you're right, according to what i've read, 40 is okay, it went up to 55ish after a few minutes of...

I need help I installed my IP35-e today with a Q6600 / stock heatsink. But i'm getting 47-55 degrees on IDLE and my PWM is running at 41 degrees I know the stock heatsink is bad, so I removed the thermal compound that came pre-applied and put a line of AS5 across the IHS according to arctic...

I got mine today and the first thing I did was lapp 2 of the 3 heatsinks. The only one I didn't lapp was the tall northbridge sink, because it had a thin piece of foam surrounding the thermal pad which looked quite delicate and probably served to cushion the pressure of the heatsink on the...
