goop or tape?

[EdipisReks]

i'm going to be putting a fop32 on my celeron (or at least trying, hopefully it will fit) and i was wondering if i should use fragtape (which a friend of mine will give me) or radio shack goop. i'm not going to buy a tube of arctivsilver, too expensive.

thanks for your help!

order a tube of aluminum grease from plycon.com nearly as good as AS but much cheaper

don't even think about using the frag tape! use the radioshack stuff even though it's not the best, it's far better than using frag tape!

If you have access to Fry's, take a look at their Tech Spray silicone free thermal paste. Doesn't dry out and seems to work better than the Alpha silicon paste.

Virtually any thermal grease you use will be superior to tape.
