<0> hey watch this
<1> i used the mx1 last time
<0> vanity
<2> ><
<0> see what he just said jenn? ^ :p
<3> DARKGirl: like optware says, cant hurt
<4> ha ha ha
<4> :D
<5> but it would be oki if i omitted it
<1> and a thing of thermal greese seems to never run out
<1> i have like 8 diff tubes of it
<3> DARKgirl: I usually spread the thermal grease over the heatsink, put it on the cpu and dont move it again
<1> darkgirl you can do it with out and see what your temps are
<4> yeah, don't use too much
<4> or too little though
<3> yeah like you are buttering a piece of bread
<4> it has to be juuuuuuuuuuuust right
<2> don't beep me uncessarily nido
<1> i just put a lil glob and slap the heatsink on top
<3> it needs to be very thin
<2> I dont feel like dealing with 'tards right now :P
<5> i dont even know wahat safe temps are for my processor
<3> very thin coating of thermal grease
<1> i seem the instructions say apply to heatsink apply to cpu yad yad yada
<3> you put it on the heatsink
<1> DARKGirl_ under 60C load is useable
<1> heatsink ehh?
<1> ive never done that i just slap it on the cpu
<0> hold on a min
<0> didnt you say you had an amd chip?
<4> i put mine on the cpu core
<4> then squash the heatsink on
<1> yea wonder why cube hard does it diff maybe he has no gravity
<0> i missed the first half of this convo, but if you got a retail amd chip, whats wrong with the thermal pad on the bottom of the stock hsf?
<5> yes i have amd
<4> nothin
<6> nidO: except the fact that the stock hsf ****s?
<4> if you're not oc'in it's fine
<1> <1> they all come with somthing
<1> [8:32] <1> thermal pad or greese
<0> bull. it ****s for you and me building a silent pc, but for joe home user to put in a desktop its perfect.
<5> the stock heatsink is bad?
<1> no its great
<1> its not the best tho
<6> stock heatsink is noisy
<6> and I don't like noise
<1> yea it is but it sure works
<4> do you like anything?
<1> can always get fan controllers
<0> just to be pedantic as you, its the stock fan thats noisy :) the heatsink is silent
<1> hehehhehe
<4> i smell a battle royal coming
<6> nidO: yes but you can't do much with a heatsink designed for an 80mm fan
<1> well the heatsink isnt a giant piece of copper
<0> besides in a desktop it aint like the cpu is gonna be doing sod all, just buy a decent motherboard and slap on the auto fan control.
<4> with foreign obects...
<1> my xp90's have 80mm
<6> now if you stick a zalman 7700 CU in there, now that's silence
<1> and are fine and quiet
<4> HE'S GOT A FOREIGN OBJECT!
<1> its called fan controller Sh4dowcat
<6> optware: I know what a fan controller is
<1> oh sorry
<6> and as nidO said, you use auto fan control
<6> not manual fan control
<4> it's called, melt your hardware, if you get drunk and forget to turn it on
<1> i dont
<1> i use manual
<1> nothing melts fifty
<6> optware: yes manual fan control is great when you're half a world away and can't turn up the fans
<6> I mean I have four fan connectors with bios fan control on the motherboard, I might as well use them
<4> mine would, i'm oc'n a 2500 mobile to 2.4ghz on air
<1> huh you worrie about fan noise on other side of world?
<1> no it would just shut off FiFtyKPS
<6> optware: that was just an example
<4> my board has no protection for that
<6> ****y board
<1> still dont think it would melt
<6> ****ty*
<1> actually i know it wouldnt melt heh
<1> metal needs reallllllllllllllllllllllllly hot temp to melt
<1> even alum
<4> ok, so the other metal parts would burn
<4> err non-metal
<1> my buddys amd board caught on fire
<1> woke up to smoke in the room
<6> the metal wouldn't melt, however the organic packaging and the socket WOULD melt
<1> after that i stayed away of amd till a64's
<6> along with the surrounding circuits, which would catch on fire
<4> yeah, computers run on magic blue smoke, you let that magic blue smoke out, it doesn't work anymore
<1> nah they dont start on fire
<6> optware: do you know anything about electronics?
<1> YES ive started lots of stuff on fire
<6> that wasn't the question
<1> mobos dont really burn they smulder
<1> i know somthing about electronics
<6> there's plenty of flamable material on a circuit board
<1> they need electricity
<6> optware: aka you don't know anything
<1> hahahahahh that wasnt funny?
<6> circuit boards WILL burn
<1> try it
<6> they're made out of plastics, which is flamable, and incidently gives off pretty toxic smoke
<1> WILL burn only applys to being inside of a fire already
<7> http://microsoft.blognewschannel.com/index.php/archives/2005/11/22/banned-xbox-360-ad-best-ad-ever/
<1> i think ill make a lil video of me holding lighter on Gforce2 gfx card
<1> maybe ill pry a hd apart to get a ultra thin pieice of circut board
<1> that might work in your favor a lil better
<8> breathe deep :D
<1> ok the card does produce a flame
<1> but only when the lighter is on and touching it
<1> when you take the lighter away it goes out
<1> and is slightly melted held lighter on it for 10 seconds still no flame after take it away
<6> your processor melts and lights the socket and surrounding circuit board on fire
<6> and so it spreads
<1> so you say
<6> circuit boards in computers have flame retardant materials in them
<6> which means that they burn slowly, but they will burn
<1> i just checked
<0> so optware you're saying a circuit board will only burn in contact with direct flame, not just heat?
<6> if you're lucky, you only ruin the area around the socket
<1> they dont burn they smulder
<1> **** a flame is only heat.. so no nid0 im not saying that
<1> but they wont actaully Catch on fire
<6> if you're unlucky, and there's enough heat, it'll spread to the voltage regulators, and then it's goodbye Charlie
<0> so you mean they wouldnt do this?
<0> http://www.hardware-one.com/img1/Bx6-2Burn1_small.jpg
<6> that's the plastic components on the board on fire
<1> hahahah no
<6> and there's PLENTY of plastic on a motherboard
<1> that would not happen
<0> they *wouldnt* do that?
<0> then how's it doing it?
<0> because it *is* doing it.
<1> ITS A BBQ
<1> you dont notice that?
<6> that's a motherboard plugged in, and it's reached a point where the electricity itself is feeding the reaction
<0> its a motherboard 6 inches and a piece of tinfoil away from a bbq.
<0> and its on FIRE
<1> with bricks giving it air under it
<0> ie, (see if you can comprehend this one)
<0> it burns.
<1> would not happen from a cpu overheating
<6> optware doesn't get it
<6> optware: it can
<1> maybe from a splash of lighterfluid
<6> I believe tomshardware has a video of it
<6> they took a heatsink off an AMD processor
<6> and bingo, fire
<1> if it happend peoples houses would burn down
