you think Liquid Nails would be a good enough conductor of heat?

It is not a very good conductor.

The thermal conductivity of rubber is 0.14 W/mK.
The thermal conductivity of copper is 386 W/mK.

Is that a good enough comparison?
 
changed question; i have Liquid Nails 😛

basically i need the heatsink on the northbridge to stay on, good enough?
 
stick a penny between the HS and the NB. Build up the rubber cement around the penny to bind the HS and NB together, be careful not to get any on the faces of the penny, though.
 
btw i found the thermal conductivity of it; can someone translate it in layman's terms?

Thermal Conductivity: "C" of 1.56 BTU/hr ft^2 Farenheight

Thermal Coefficient of Expansion: 5.4 x 106 in/in/Farenheight

may as well be an insulator for what you want it to do.
 
I would superglue socket7 heatsinks to the voltage regulator heatsink on acers all the time, worked like a charm

Just dont expect to get it off
 
thermal epoxy costs very little. why do you just not get that? Hell, the Home Depot I used to work at sold some cheap thermal epoxy for $3.99. I assume it was nowhere near AS, but anything is better.
 
Metals are good conductors there is no metal in liquid nails. I doubt it will conduct heat at all.*
