Artic Silver Ceramique! New Product!

Silverfox · May 26, 2003, 11:47 PM

Has anyone out there used this new product from Artic Silver? It is non-conductive & non-capacitive, and a few reviews I have read states that it will lower your temps 3 C compared to their other compounds. It sounds pretty good to me, but just wondering how it would work on the vid cards core. It sure seems alot safer. They say you could coat your whole mb with it,and nothing would happen. Heres the instructional info on the product: http://www.arcticsilver.com/ceramique_instructions.htm

If it's like the Thermal Stuff which came with TT Spark 7, then it works great. Looks very similiar. Shouldn't be too expensive and it is a lot safer!

What's better? Arctic Silver 3 or Ceramique?

Sorry , I didnt see the previous thread on this subject, but it looks to me that even though arctic silver may be better by a few degrees, if one uses the ceramique on their core for the first time, and then attaches any heatsinks to their rams with Arctic alumina adhesive, your chances for any electrical conductivity or capacitive mishaps will be nulled out. To me, this is the much safer route to take! At least using these compounds, would rule out the variable alot of folks think may have happenned when they fire-up their newly modded vid card for the first time, and they say WTF did I do wrong!

I just dont know anyone around here that has used it yet!
