I got the email I still haven't got the tube 🙁

You can run any DC project ,go ahead & run one ,it won't bite I promise😉

Assimilator1 I have not heard back did you get your tube?
 
anarchron - This giveaway is for the distributed computing forum. My requirement is for experience for quality results and feedback. Not for those with idle curiosity. If it means that much to you, buy a tube
 
I can provide detailed feedback and quality results. Now, wouldn't it be interesting from your perspective to see the results gained from applying the Diamond 7 onto a very popular and well known consumer product that has been notorious for overheating?

Anyways, would you know of any Australian distributors for the IC? It's pretty crazy that I'd have to pay nearly double the price of the actual product itself to cover the shipping cost.

Thx ,re-sent.

Still not got a tube as of Tuesday 25th.

 
I'm interested, however I'm in Australia. I'd be happy to pay for some, its just a matter of finding a distributor over here.
 
I'm interested in a tube. I have an X3350 on the way right now and am planning to pair it with my ip35 pro next sunday (apr 6). I run seti instead of f&h, however. Do I qualify?
 
I think you might be too late but I'll let ICD7 give a difinitive answer ,doesn't matter which DC project you run 🙂(as per the topic summary).

My tubes turned up today 🙂 ,& wow you were generous! thanks 😀
 
Put in to test on 2 systems

AMD X2 5200 with ATI HD2900PRO
AMD X2 6000 with ATI HD3870X2

Could do a test on a AMD X64 3200 with ATI X1950XTX as well if you like.


Opps didn't read the last posts before submitting.
 
I ran into this thread and I did not receive the product directly from the manufacturer. I purchased a tube of IC Diamond from a shop. (my memory is fading but I believe it was from Petra's shop or SVC, somewhere like that) I can't comment on temperatures much because my usage period was short, but there was a reason..

Is this tube (in the pic) geniume? Basically the thing was eating nickel off of the CPU IHS and the bottom of my heatsink. Needlessly to say my experiment was very short lived and I thought it's another 'liquid metal' thingy. But now I wonder if I received a bogus product?
 
Composition is mostly Diamond small amount of Carbon Black and maybe a drop of synthetic oil (same oil many other manufacturers use) all nonreactive stuff.

However if you rub it for a few seconds it will polish very quickly
 
do'h.... i'm waaaay to late... I was hoping to put this on my X3350 on an intel DX38BT oc to 3.0... for the time being.. i'm currently using AS5 with temps at 62C with seti running using a low end watercooling setup and ambient room temps of 24.2C
 
That's rather hot for a watercooling setup isn't it? my Q6600 @3GHz on air running DPAD manages 45-50C with 23-25C ambients, at least with ICD7 anyway🙂

i know... all my q6600s run cooler than my x3350... I've been talking to bryanW and he's getting about 10c higher... that's with coretemp... with realtemp i'm getting 52C... like I said, its a low end watercooling setup and I guess we should start stating which software we are using to measure temps :shocked:

Is it safe to use on a bare core? (like GPU or NB)

I see, I thought the X3350 was the same core as a Q6600, I guess not ,what is it?
Btw are you saying coretemp under reads on your setup?
