The spread method doesn't seem to cover the whole "heatsink". This could be due to uneven surface on the CPU IHS (Heat spreader). On top of that, air bubbles might be introduced as seen from my other video (check out my list). Heatsink and IHS might not be truly flat, hence spread method may not be the best method to use.

My theory on why spread method may not be the best: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/NYC84/Forum/cbf792db.jpg

Check my video list for more methods.

  • What method should I use for my i7 920?

    By the way, TRUE 120 Heatsink...

  • for TRUE.. I recommend Pea method. u need to put more amount as the i7 core is quite large and the TRUE's base is convex. Hope it helps :)

  • what is the name of song?

  • check out the Statistics & Data of this video. I use utube build-in audio.

  • @DunkelStern the name of the song is super gay lord suck a giant cock-remix

  • You must also "prime" the top surface by first cleaning and then rubbing a very small amount into the surface to fill the micro fissures in metal. Please read the informative PDF that is available from the manufacturer's website (arctic silver)

  • All rise for Youtube national anthem!

  • @creat3d This fucking song scared the shit out of me when I was waiting to check facebook cause I thought it was someone at my house pranking me. FUCK

  • all stand for the youtube national anthem

  • This song should be banned and taken down from public use.

  • all my years of applying thermal paste, wasting it on bank cards and other wacky methods iv seen. the blob in centre is the best. AS 5 is way to thick and i never use it anymore, it did used to be my fav compound. I use Shin-Etsu X23-7783D now one 2mm cubed blob will cover 70~% of a cpu when compressed, which is all u need since most the IHS does not come into contact with the core and will smash as5 by about 5-10c even with perfect application.

  • looks like all the spreaders out there disliked the video. I wouldn't be surprised if they're also religious.

  • My ears feel like sum1 just raped the shit out of em'

  • ...but it works better with easy cheese!
