SuperGlue! drops to fix heatsink or whatever...
« on: November 14, 2009, 05:28:00 PM »
Maybe I'm exagerating but this 060, latest mask, is gonna be working at 80Mhz :)
It's for an MKII, and since it's gonna be used on an A4000T for now, it's gonna be hanging down vertically from the CPU card. Don't think cooling past will be enouph to secure it.

What else should be used ? Don't like clips, but is SuperGlue gonna be enouph to conduct heat to the heatsink, even if it's just 4 drops on each corner ...
What if I later want to take off the heatsink and use another one ? SuperGlue is probably hard to take off...
....
Suggestions welcome...

I guess the missed heat conductivity on those 2 drops is not that much. And it's less expensive. The artic silver thermal adhesive on the other hand probably dissipates heat better and I don't mind if it's permanent cause in this case it would be silly to have the latest mask 060 and not clock it properly! I'm probably gonna use it with a copper heatsink and use a silent Silenx fan on it :)

"Acetone dissolves the arctic silver glue."

Awesome.

Well, given all the info above I've decided and ordered the artic silver glue thing...
