Re: Ratdude's Main rig V3.5
decided to furmark it... and when the GPU's got to 100C, I killed furmark.
Uh oh...
When I redid the heatsinks, I used this for the GPU die:

I take it that's not good enough... What is suggested to fix this?sigpic

Re: Ratdude's Main rig V3.5
Furmark pushes a GPU to it's absolute limits. What cooler is on the card? I use to have an 8600GT with the dinky stock cooler. Heated up like crazy. Put on a big ol' cooler and it never got over 40C after that.Last edited by 370forlife; 08-12-2013, 07:03 PM.

Re: Ratdude's Main rig V3.5
Done some looking, not as sold on AS5... there's some 200 hour burn-in period on that stuff, and that's almost a deal breaker, as the tests I've read show it's not bad (but far from the best) when fresh.
This stuff any good?

Re: Ratdude's Main rig V3.5
I don't know, looks like generic paste to me. If it was any good, it would list the specs on it.
The gelid site lists it as 8.5W/mK which isn't anything special.
Look for pastes that have better thermal conductivity, for example the Prolimatech pastes are advertised at 10.2w/mK
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16835242024
But then again, Tuniq TX-4 is recommended by a lot of sites as a good general paste and it's only rated as 6.3w/mK.
It makes a lot of difference how thin the paste is applied and so on...

Re: Ratdude's Main rig V3.5
I always use AS5, and it seems to do great.
As far as the furmark temps, I once did it to a passive 8500GT with a somewhat small heatsink (Thanks ASUS!). It maxed out at 105*C. You could just about cook eggs on it at that temp.Last edited by c_hegge; 08-13-2013, 12:27 AM.I love putting bad caps and flat batteries in fire and watching them explode!!

Re: Ratdude's Main rig V3.5
I remember one company that had a warning on every model of paste they made saying that it must be reapplied every 12 months. I can't remember what brand that was now, and I don't see any that has that warning now.
I never had good luck with Ceramique. It worked fine for a year, and then the temperatures started increasing. I'd rather not take the heatsink off that often.

Unfortunately, the RadioShack stuff likes to fade away after some months of use.
Took socket 462 heatsinks off more than once, IIRC, to see it disappeared from the Athlon!
