[QUOTE="ZomgDSM, post: 497722, member: 38954"] Well here are a few things for you to consider Well 1st i hope you used a grounding strap, id assume so. Anyway, heres how much apple applies. [IMG]http://home.sc.rr.com/mixedbag/MBP/Photos_files/Northbridge.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://home.sc.rr.com/mixedbag/MBP/Photos_files/Heat%20Pipe.jpg[/IMG] Quite comical if you ask me. Thermal paste is used merely to fill the microscopic differences in the 2 metals, should be applied as thin as a piece of paper, like this... [IMG]http://home.sc.rr.com/mixedbag/MBP/Photos%202_files/Silverized.jpg[/IMG] People have not only notice temp drops when doing this, but significant ones, along the lines of 30C difference. Great job apple <thumbsup> [/QUOTE]
