Phase change thermal compound

[Jonty]

Based in the UK, does anyone know if I can lay my hands on some replacement thermal compound, to use with my 1200 T'bird and save me buying another h/sink?

I chose to remove my h/sink last night so that I could get the AXIA-type details off the CPU. Now I'm worried that I've been stupid and probably wrecked thermal conductivity!

Doh!

suggest you completely remove your thermal compound & use some arctic silver thermal paste. you can get some from Scan or OcUK!

Nice one, and thanks.

I've visited OcUK (was actually browsing around yesterday) and have ordered some paste... but also another GlobalWin h/sink+fan combo (copper).

I'm gonna use the existing fan in another application...

Cheers!
