Arctic Silver
Arctic Silver AS5-3.5G X2 5 Thermal Compound 3.5 Gram Tube 2 Pack
Product Overviews
Contains 99.9% pure silver:
Arctic Silver 5 uses three unique shapes and sizes of pure silver particles to maximize particle-to-particle contact area and thermal transfer.
Not Electrically Conductive:
Arctic Silver 5 was formulated to conduct heat not electricity. (While much safer than electrically conductive silver and copper greases Arctic Silver 5 should be kept away from electrical traces pins and leads. While it is not electrically conductive the compound is very slightly capacitive and could potentially cause problems if it bridges two close-proximity electrical paths.)
Absolute Stability:
Arctic Silver 5 will not separate run migrate or bleed.
Performance:
3 to 12 degrees centigrade lower CPU full load core temperatures than standard thermal compounds or thermal pads when measured with a calibrated thermal diode imbedded in the CPU core.
Coverage Area:
The 3.5 gram tube contains enough compound to cover at least 15 to 25 small CPU cores or 6 to 10 large CPU cores or 2 to 5 heat plates.
Important Reminder:
Due to the unique shape and sizes of the particles in Arctic Silver 5s conductive matrix it will take a up to 200 hours and several thermal cycles to achieve maximum particle to particle thermal conduction and for the heatsink to CPU interface to reach maximum conductivity. On systems measuring actual internal core temperatures via the CPUs internal diode the measured temperature will often drop 2C to 5C over this "break-in" period. This break-in will occur during the normal use of the computer as long as the computer is turned off from time to time and the interface is allowed to cool to room temperature. Once the break-in is complete the computer can be left on if desired.
