    If I'm not mistaken, doesn't PTM-7950 also need higher pressure?

    On a side note, I received the Thermal Grizzly "TG Spatula Pro". To sum up my review of it, don't waste your money. The handle is way too short and awkward, the spatula only has ONE feature to "help" with paste spreading aside from being flat - one front corner is rounded. There is NOTHING on...

    Are any of these Lamptron coolers worth it?

    @Athlonite @Scattergrunt Thanks for your input, folks! I figured as much but it's always good to make sure the gut isn't just upset from bad food, so to speak. ;)

    Are any of these Lamptron coolers worth it?

    @freeagent @everyone I was wandering around looking at clearance stuff on Titan Rig and came across several Lamptron air coolers. I remember that last year Roman pointed out that there was a serious issue with the software keys for the display not being legit. I kind of wonder if they...

    What's a good test for a thermal glue?

    Fo For now, I just need to have a way to evaluate it. This is the glue I have. I like that idea - simple but effective!

    What's a good test for a thermal glue?

    Yes, it's different. It has thermal conductivity as well as strong adhesion.

    What's a good test for a thermal glue?

    I was given some, but I've never used it before so I'm looking for suggestions on good ways to test it - obviously, without my computer being the guinea pig! ;) For now, I just need to have a way to evaluate it. This is the glue I have.

    In order to get a proper CFM or CMH reading from my anemometer, what do I set the area to?

    And here I was going to blame it on pollution. ;)

    In order to get a proper CFM or CMH reading from my anemometer, what do I set the area to?

    Yes, that's true, but we usually use metric of static pressure.... Crazy humans! ;)

    In order to get a proper CFM or CMH reading from my anemometer, what do I set the area to?

    That is what I just did with the A12x25, and the closest I could get to its metric output (why does everyone use CFM???) is .011m2. Thanks for confirming my only theory. :)

    In order to get a proper CFM or CMH reading from my anemometer, what do I set the area to?

    I've got an Aicevoos AS-H7 anemometer, which can measure velocity and flow, and has an area range of .001 to 9.999 m2 or ft2. I'm doing tests both in open air and a constrained area. For open air, if I use 9.999 I get incorrect readings. What should I use? Thanks! I finally found the right...

    Liquidextasy waterblocks

    Nice work! May I suggest that you inspect and clean off your filters more often? I hope you're also using respirators!

    Liquidextasy waterblocks

    I'm not sure how much of a market there is for it, but direct-die CPU water blocks that are not proprietary might attract interest.

    Cool! Thanks!

    Is that as far as you read? Stop cherry-picking, please. It can and does happen to most liquids when exposed to air or certain gases.
