Going on a tangent.
The best way to apply thermal paste AKA TIM:
the thinnest possible layer ALL over the processor's surface.
The pea method IMNSHO is stupid!
- Deestan 9y agoThe pea method eliminates bubbles. A thin layer does not.
- watersb 9y ago"Tinting" the cleaned surface of the CPU with thermal compund, mostly removed with a credit card or thin plastic scraper... and then applying the pea... Could it be that there is some merit to the "thin layer all over" message? But yes, easy to mis-communicate. I had not considered the problem of bubbles.
