Desktop Computer Review: Arctic Silver Ceramique Premium High Density Thermal Compound 22g Review

Ok here is some tech talk that you may or may not understand... When connecting to hot metals together the thermal transference is around 10-20% which is great if you're not to worried about heat. In a computer where heat is not your freind it is a big, really big concern, which is why we use a thermal grease with most you get a thermal transfer rate of about 30-50% which is fantastic if you're just running PII- PIV processor. But for those of us using a high end system with the added problem of living in the caribbean with the current heat wave Artic Silver is the only way to go with a thermal transfer rate of 50-70% its a great way to add a little extra protection with out incurring a big cost.

Just one thing though, the shipping of this product is sent via an envelope which means that the tube can get damaged, I've already complained about it to the company, and I'll update you as I will be using this product regularly if that doesn't change. Laterz peoples

Product Description:
The high-density, ceramic-based thermal compound is specifically designed for modern high-power CPUs and high-performance heatsinks or water-cooling solutions. The Evolution of Cool! Ceramique uses a high-density layered composite of five unique shapes of thermally conductive aluminum oxide, boron nitride and zinc oxide sub-micron particles to maximize particle-to-particle contact area and thermal transfer. This exclusive combination provides performance exceeding most metal-based compounds.Ceramique does not contain any silicone. The suspension fluid is a proprietary mixture of advanced polysynthetic oils that provide superior performance and long-term stability. During the system's initial use, the heat from the CPU lowers the viscosity of the compound to enhance the filling of the microscopic valleys and ensure a minimum bond line between the heatsink and the CPU core. Then the compound thickens slightly over the next 100 to 300 hours of use to its final consistency designed for long-term stability.Ceramique is engineered to not separate, run, migrate, or bleed. It does not contain any metal or other electrically conductive materials. It is a pure electrical insulator, neither electrically conductive nor capacitive. Ceramique can easily be cleaned from CPUs and heatsinks with isopropyl alcohol.The 22-gram Ceramique is one of the first products available in a proprietary thermal compound syringe. The new syringe is more compact, easier to handle and dispenses a higher percentage of its content than standard industrial or medical syringes. The amount of compound remaining in the syringe is easy to determine, as the rear of the plunger is perfectly flush with the flange when the syringe is empty.
