silicone cpu
2004
What is an alternate solution to thermal compound? IE, CPU HELP?
Right now I got a new OEM processor, but I don’t have any thermal compound to use. Is there anything else that I can use? My neighbor said that I could use a thin layer of silicone grease, would that work?
Most likely you could, but you have to ask yourself if it is worth the risk of frying your new cpu. You are probably better off buying some silver based compound from NewEgg or my favorite, TigerDirect. I don’t forsee you having to pay any more than $5-$7 for the good stuff but Ive picked some up from TigerDirect for as low as a buck and it worked really well too.
While on topic, I would probaly also suggest a good cpu fan, namely one with a copper base. Zalman and Thermaltake are two names I always look for.
