As a fan of Arctic Silver I am curious to know what the "tester" is. Let us know.

Arctic Silver 4. I hope that conducts even better then 3. Wonder what my temperatures will be with that one. I'l loove to see a temperature comparison of two CPUs; one with AS3, and the other with AS4.

Probably won't be much of a differnece there; but if there was that would be really cool!

umm, depending on the amount, if half a tubes going to be enough, i will try and get half a tube of the new stuff to whoever has the time to do a test & write up a review.

It arrived this morning, and it's called 'Ceramique By Arctic Silver' 1 gramme tube, about to test it now.

"Gareth,

Céramique, by Arctic Silver®
High Density Thermal Gel.

Nothing in print yet. The application is not as critical as AS3, so you do not need to spend a lot of time getting a perfect layer. It is VERY thick and sticky so be careful removing the heatsink later that you do not pull the chip from the socket."



And thats all i have to go on.

so far i have not tried it. probably this weekend...

Still no takers to review this ?

If I were near you, I would test it out. Sounds quite different from AS3. Thick and sticky eh? I am curious to try it though and will be looking for it to release.
