Hello friends, in today's tutorial I will show you how to apply thermal paste or thermal conductors on the processor so that the cooler can "collect" as much heat as possible to take it as far as possible from the "brain" of the PC.
Thermal paste is a very important element for an efficient cooling of the processor, but also of other chips such as the chipset, the graphics processor "on the video card" but also other chips that heat up. Even processors in routers sometimes need the paste between the processor and the cooler or ceramic cooling pad.
The memories generally Thermal pads are used, they are like stickers that apply between memory chips and the aluminum heat spreader.
Returning to our pasta, you should know that there are several types of pasta, I prefer paste from Zalman ZM-STG1 a paste with low density, it is very easy to apply and the container has enough paste for several applications, so it's Disposable others.
High-density paste is applied with a spatula or a few lines or dots of paste are "drawn" on the processor, after which the cooler is applied, the latter should theoretically flatten the paste perfectly and distribute it over the entire surface of the processor, but you know how it's with the theory.
Layer thick paste should not be applied in excess paste may play a role isolated and do not want that, right?
You should know that the paste itself does nothing to facilitate better contact between foot cooler and processor would be ideal to make perfect contact surfaces but as this is not possible, use paste. Apply enthusiasts overclock the CPU cooler and a process for finishing and leveling of surfaces that is called lapping, following this procedure we obtain super flat and perfectly finished surfaces that make contact almost perfect, but even then it is necessary to paste.
Theoretically, a full surface welding between the cooler and the processor would be the perfect joint and the heat transfer would be done instantly, unfortunately this is nonsense…
Zalman ZM-STG1 Thermal paste is the most advanced on the market, nevertheless I prefer it because it is easy to use, the application is extremely easy, even when we squeeze the casing is very easy because the brush works.
Pasta used in tutorial (my favorite).
Zalman thermal compound, low density
More efficient thermal compound (with 1-5 degrees Celsius less than the Zalman)
Arctic Silver thermal compound 5, 3.5 grams
The amount in the containers is similar, but the paste with a lower density (Zalman stretches better and is harder to consume) if you don't give "two hands" 🙂
CAREFUL
The processor should not be installed without your thermal compound.
If you opened the cooler, paste should be changed, the old one no longer offer warranty.
If you are passionate about the hardware, you really need to book in house pasta.

This pasta Heat expire? I have one in the house for about 2 years can be used or should I buy it? Cristi you made a deal with the new camera that shoot. sees and hears very well.
Cristi, do a tutorial on how to censor the words in a video ... I tried to put a beep sound instead of swearing, but it didn't work out for me. I'm waiting for you to do it (and I've been waiting for about March, no that would be a lot, right? :)))
You can use VideoPad Video Editor. It's a pretty simple video editor, but quite effective especially for beginners.
You should have an audio editing window on the left. Mark some dots with the mouse on the center line. Then pull down. And that's it ... you stopped the sound permanently on a certain part of the video ... a part that can be as big as you want.
Something

Eventually you can mute the sound and add another superimposed external sound ... to beep. It's up to you and your imagination. You can extract a portion of the sound from elsewhere using audacity ... to apply it here.
Don't wait for the blackberry in your mouth ... do it yourself.
We do not do business, invest in quality because we care about our visitors
Normally if air enters the pasta has no ass, after using the tubes have to close better.
Paste on the processor's well its a change, especially pasta stock is not the best quality.
True ...
You are still exceptional, like on the first day I met you, in 2008 if I'm not mistaken. Most video tutorials give them a replay 2-3 times, I like your style ...
I'm still waiting for a gaming configuration of 2500-2600 (including monitor) lei from you, if it were with IvyBridge it would be great, but I don't think it's possible :)
Cristi, use a paste really great and I want to take my Zalman one like yours, because I am using Artic Silver 5 Daia with syringe, I realized that it makes more difficult to effect 2-3 months after it said one. Then paste it feels like it's the CPU that says he has to make those crystals and effect, etc.. I also have some syringes older Athlon XP and when I cam or dried, or cured and are rarely good. But they used to have one electrical circuit (in audio amplifiers, etc..) The tube is thick but still so bad and too hard, it's the white-white and sticks to the bottom during the cooler and processor and it is possible to snatch CPU socket directly (here I mean the socket and that's 478,462). You've said yourself that it is not advisable to use toothpaste acoard processor without you, only those who want to try out in the run, to see if that processor is good can use 1-2 min without pills, and if you see good horses , I make pasta, like I do when the sample processors.
White-white paste that is Made in the USA but only know how he says it took writing on the tube is a green and white, I say as a paste, but do not know if it's good and ptr processor: -?
You Cristi aluminum stock cooler? As it is seen, mine is copper so I got to i5 2500k and is cooler NIDEC little noisy, not like the ones I obs DELTA. that are quieter.
Thanks Vali !!! I'm surprised that someone answered me because I've said it 2-3 times before and no one answered me ... yes, Adrian answered me in March "we'll do a tutorial about that too" ... and from March until now some time has passed, but no one (from the team) has even tried to say what program this is done with => it doesn't help people when they need it ... I have seen many comments in which he said to the team to do a certain tutorial (an email or something should be done in which to send proposals), but none was done, it was just with "we will do it, wait".
You see ... for a proposal to become a tutorial, the administrators must also find it interesting. In addition, there must be more people who want that and reinforce that in the comments section. A tutorial is not made for one person.
We have to learn to handle ourselves ... not to wait for everything to be ready.
With VideoPad + + audacity + gimp + Avidemux iWisoft Free Video Converter can make enough basic stuff. If you want something more, then you need to install a professional video editing program.
I will not be grumpy but the method that you presented it's the slaba.Uitate to this movie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EyXLu1Ms-q4.Am and I cut out a small piece of glass and tried pasta at home with the cheapest I found it in trade to see how it behaves, and got the same results as in video.Si am home a bottle of Zalman, Noctua NT-H1, Arctic Cooling MX-4 can say that between the Arctic and Noctua but there was no difference when the temperature rises apply Zalman 3 4-degrees
Go hello! Useful tutorial. I also did this operation a few weeks ago when I cleaned my PC of dust, I used a dry brush to clean the dust from all the components in it, I even disassembled the source to clean the cooler from it because it was full of dust. The thermal conductive paste we applied to the processor is ZEROtherm ZT-100 High Performance 3,5 g http://www.emag.ro/pasta-termica-zerotherm-zt-100-high-performance-3-5-g-zt100/pd/EW8QMBBBM/ which is good in my opinion. I you Atlon AMD dual core x64 2 5000 2.60 + GHz at a temperature of-32 33 degrees C when sitting in standby PC and 45 degrees C you put your PC to work.
Before applying the new thermal paste, I cleaned the old paste from the cooler and processor with some cotton wool and sanitary alcohol and it cleaned perfectly, it also works to clean with isopropyl alcohol. I applied the paste with my finger on the entire surface of the processor, of course I put a glove on before. The people from the store where I bought the pasta told me that it is advisable to change it once every 6 months. What do you think about the thermal paste I used?
