Did he apply it directly to the top of the chip die or to one of those aluminum package covers? Did he use a copper heat-sink? Is somebody's leg being pulled?
- antisthenes 10y agoThe chip package cover is usually nickel, not aluminum, and even if it was, it could be sanded away to copper. The other side (heatsink with fan) probably had to have been full copper (not the pipe/aluminum) Either way, it doesn't seem worth the effort for marginal gains.
