Silver Thermal Pastes may not be so silver.

[XMENRudeJelly]

I saw this on Slashdot. It turns out that some of those Thermal Paste/Grease manufacturers who claim 99% real silver...may be fibbing. Caveat Emptor, I gues. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek2 --><img src=http://www.thzclan.com/forums/images/smilies/eek2.gif ALT=":eek2"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>I know some of us here like to build our own systems, so I thought I pass this along.<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.overclockers.com/articles938/" target="top">SILVER THERMAL PASTES - BUYERS BEWARE!</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--> <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://webpages.charter.net/1ibcnya/mongheesm.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><!--EZCODE BR START-->

Luckily I have always used Arctic Silver on my builds. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Did you see that OCZ is doing a recall on theirs and suing their supplier for breach of contract. They got scammed. Now they are having Arctic Silver make it for them.<br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.ocztechnology.com/displaypag ... ame=recall" target="top">www.ocztechnology.com/displaypage.php?n ... <!--EZCODE LINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

That's a smart move on OCZ's part. And I too, have always used Arctic Silver. Makes me glad I spent the extra money. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE HR START--><hr /><!--EZCODE HR END--><!--EZCODE CENTER START--><div style="text-align:center"><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:Arial;font-size:medium;"><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>"Never, Never, Never Quit"</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> -Winston Churchill</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></div><!--EZCODE CENTER END--></p><i></i>
