Artic Silver II

Will it drop your temp? I am useing one of the AMD recommended coolermasters off of new egg. My Athlon 1gig@1.2 has a temp of 48c and around 55 full load. How much would ASII drop my temp if any ya think?
 
Well I wouldn't expect a *huge* change, but on personal experience it dropped my temp from 55 to 52 (amd 1.4 under full load).
 
depends on other factors has well. Fan speed and airflow, heatsink quality, flatness of heatsink, etc.

ASII will drop it a couple degrees on avg.
 
It also works a lot better if you follow the directions on the website exactly. The key to getting peak efficiency is to have the right amount. Not too little, not too much.

It made about a 1.5 degree difference under full load in my 1.4 system.
