Best you can get. July 28, 2010
RagingStormX
Although the set time for this thermal paste is really high (200hrs)... its the best thing around. True quality stuff. Best you can get. The cleaning and prepping agents are outstanding also.
Works great on PS3's! July 20, 2010
Paul Manmohan (Waterbury CT.)
I have a launch PS33 and that junk was loud, talking about while watching a blu-ray you'd have to turn up the volume and you can still here the fan. After using this product my PS3 hasn't been more silent since the day I got it. Great stuff, plus instructions are on the individual bottles, foolproof.
Recently applied it to my Thinkpad t60p July 2, 2010

My first try with Arctic Silver. Temp dropped from 76 to 71 on light duty and from ~100 to ~92 on heavy duty (graphics intensive programs). Really makes a difference.
Thinkpad t60/t60p are known to have cooling problems, especially with my ATI Mobility FireGL V5250 graphics adapter.
The only drawback, in my opinion, is the Silver volume is not proportional to the volume of Clean1 and Clean2. You'll probably run out of the compound grease faster than the cleaning liquid.

Good product, works as advertised, but just this once I used too much and it ran off the top of my laptop's GPU and shorted some pins...I had no idea I had spilled any off of the top of the chip. Now the laptop will not start.
I assumed that both Stage 1 and Stage 2 solutions were non-conductive, but I think only stage 2 is.
Well worth the money June 3, 2010

Background:
I have an older computer than most of the reviewers here. It's a Dell XPS400 with a 3.2GHz Pentium-D dual-core processor. These CPUs were manufactured with the older 65ns fabs, which means they consume a lot of power and generate a lot of heat. It's showing it's age now, but it's still fast enough to run Windows 7 64-bit.
The Problem:
Lately, I've noticed that my computer was getting louder and louder. I would rationalize it because the weather is getting warmer and I was playing some CPU intensive games. Eventually, it got to the point where it sounded like a jet engine was keeping my girlfriend from sleeping. Being the cheapskate that I am, I would rather add better cooling than to simply buy a new computer system. It then dawned to me that the computer was nearly FOUR YEARS OLD and the thermal paste had probably dried out by now. Vacuuming out and reapplying the thermal grease would be my cheapest option.
The Product:
I haven't built a computer from scratch in a long time, but many years ago when I did, Arctic Silver was the product to get. I did some research and it appeared that it was still considered one of the best thermal paste applications around. I found it on Amazon for a good price and purchased the Arctic Silver kit (includes ArctiClean1, ArctiClean2, & Arctic Silver 5). I opened up my computer, cleaned off all the dust and followed the Arctic Silver instructions.
ArctiClean1 - dissolves and emulsifies the old thermal grease on your CPU and heatsink. If your computer came pre-built, the manufacturer most likely used way too much. I had to reapply around three times to make sure all the previous thermal grease was removed.
ArctiClean2 - removes and purified any residue left by ArctiClean1. It pretty much makes sure there's nothing in the way of the thermal grease and the CPU or heasink. I reapplied this around three times also.
Arctic Silver - it's been a while since I've had to apply thermal grease, but I do remember the most important rule. Do not overuse the grease! Use it sparingly as too much will be detrimental to its performance. Follow the instructions - [...].
The Result:
The break-in period for this product is 200 hours. I'm about 6 hours in, but I've already noticed a huge difference. While, the fan is still going, it's not nearly as loud as before. It definitely won't keep anyone from falling asleep anymore.
Recommendation:
This is a great product and I highly recommend getting the kit. It makes removing the previous thermal grease much easier and preps your heatsink and CPU way better than I could have using my own means. Highly recommended!
