| Is this an old topic? I'm asking because I know there was a popular thread a few weeks back about the IC7 Carat Diamond TIM... yet it doesn't score as well in the review. The article makes me want to o out and buy some OCZ Freeze TIM asap! http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=138&Item id=1 . |

| Colonel Calamity | They posted their review a day or two after ours was released but I feel their methodology was severely flawed and reading through it should point out multiple levels of severe inconsistencies. I would read through ours to see how our reviewer used real world testing and tested each compound multiple times to ensure consistent results. Also by using an aftermarket cooler, we showed just how crappy using the stock cooler is, especially when overclocking. I do have other negative things to say about that specific site but I will keep them to myself. ![]() Thanks HL and Corsair! My opinions are my own and not representative of this site or its members. |

| You know what... the fact that their testing methodology was flawed was my first reaction. Especially since they refused to properly cure the TIM !!! . Where is our thermal paste review? . Last edited by gvblake22; June 2nd, 2008 at 10:06. Reason: consecutive posts merged |

| THANK YOU! Squeezing every degree celsius out of my rig is my goal! HELP! After readingthat article I think I definitely should put those thermal pads back on the memory chips on my Video card. Where can I find replacements? Last edited by gvblake22; June 2nd, 2008 at 10:07. Reason: consecutive posts merged |

| Modder-ator | I found these that appear to be specifically for video cards. You could also look into the generic ones... <<LINK 1>> <<LINK 2>> <<LINK 3>> <<LINK 4>> Last edited by gvblake22; June 2nd, 2008 at 10:17. |
