Dizeeworm Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Properly applied TIM? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Peyton Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 Yes, definitely. I used Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut. I spread it all over evenly (then added a "tiny" extra blob in the middle) too; for good measure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Peyton Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I included a picture of how it looked after I removed it (at the end of the run). How does that look to you guys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I.nfraR.ed Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 TIM layer looks very thick. Next time you might want to try what I do: pre-heat the pot with a hot air gun or even a hairdryer and apply the paste on the pot, rather than on the cpu. Mount it, but twist a little before tightening the bolts. I know Roman shows how "easy" it is to spread the Kryonaut with the supplied applicator, but in reality my Kryonaut looks much thicker and harder to spread compared to his video. It falls apart and the pieces stick to the applicator, rather than the IHS, so pre-heating the surface and the syringe helps to make it a little more liquid than it is. I'd say I'm rather disappointed by Kryonaut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
