I'm on holiday - so will put up temps before and after once the tim has arrived ready to test! I will be using it on my dual xeons. Is there enough tim for 2 CPUs?

I'll be testing several notebooks with this thermal paste.

Thank you for the opportunity, I sent you an e-mail with my particulars.

This is cool, stinger.

You could probably have your custom title added to show that you're a rep, like I've seen others do. You don't need 5000 posts for that.

Also when emailing your intent to test, please include that your in the TechPowerUp test! Don't forget to include that your a member here at TPU!

I recently became a representative for Innovation Cooling (IC Diamond 7 manufacture) and have been authorized to present to the awesome members of TechPowerUp! an opportunity to enjoy a free (including shipping) tube of IC Diamond's newest Thermal Interface Material; IC Diamond 24!!!!!

Below you will see the quoted message from Andrew, the CEO for Innovation Cooling, on how to obtain your free tube of IC Diamond 24. Andrew, by the way is a great person to talk to and will be joining in on this thread very soon. Most likely later tonight or tomorrow sometime.

I will be contacting Andrew as soon as I have this posted in order for him to join in on the fun!

Folks, I was actually in on the testing of IC Diamond 7 when it was just being released, and it was a hoot! So don't delay, as there is only 100 tubes available to TechPowerUp! forum members, and have a great time doing what we all love to do anyhow.

Until Andrew logs in and responds to this thread, if you have any questions or concerns please feel free to contact me via PM's. Try to keep questions, for the time being, to PM's so that this thread does not become flooded with such items.

Have fun guys and gals, and we will see you on the testing grounds.

Stinger608

Congrats on your new Job dude.

Exactly what these guys stated Chr0nos, you have been a member for well over 3 months, so you qualify man.

Wow, great turn out over night! Thanks to everyone that has jumped in on this so far.

I am sure that Andrew will be jumping in here today sometime LOL. To introduce himself and discuss further details with everyone.

ON MY HONOR IN EXCHANGE FOR FREE COMPOUND I DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR TO TEST AND POST MY RESULTS

I'm in. I'll probably test on the following:

Phenom X6 1605T @ 3.6GHz(Unlocked x4 960T)
Thermalright Ultra-120(non-Extreme)
GTX470 & GTX465

Currently using Arctic Silver Alumina on everything.

popswala · Aug 8, 2012, 04:07 PM

Here's a few of my rigs I can try it on. I'll work on getting screenshots of the others.

DeviousTom · Aug 8, 2012, 04:24 PM

Hah, just made an account today and noticed this thread and remembered the old one. I can't say anything about ICD24, but I had a tube of ICD7 as it was about the only paste thick enough to settle the large gap on the heatsink in my laptop and it was absolutely fantastic. Easily a drop of 10 degrees. Great stuff, and I can't wait for all the results around here. Hopefully someone can compare it to the old stuff and post the results? Perhaps that would give me the initiative to clean out my laptop again

. And if it can beat out the more popular competitors (as I remember ICD7 just barely scoring lower than the best pastes) then I'd even consider it for my gaming rig. Just remember people, it is REALLY thick, I mean seriously thick. Also if you don't want to scratch up the IHS on a CPU or GPU or a heatsink, do a careful cleaning, preferably with some of those thermal paste removing compounds, of this stuff (at least ICD7) since its mixture of diamonds can cause lots of microscratches (removed some of the lettering from my GPU when I was doing some testing of pastes).

Have fun peoples. Jealous am I.

CONGRATS on the awesome job

too bad im in india

Arctucas · Aug 8, 2012, 08:50 PM

What is the difference between ICD 24 and ICD 7 (which is what I am currently using)?

In the past, I seem to recall (and please correct me if that is wrong) the difference was only the amount of TIM in the syringe.

VulkanBros · Aug 8, 2012, 09:36 PM

Using Antec Formula 7 Nano Diamond right now on all crunchers - so it would be fun to throw it against that.....

Fix'd!

I swore I would never remove my CPU cooler again unless it was life and death as it's close to impossible without breaking something so I'll have to pass. Seems my days of hardcore testing and lulz have come to an end

Hell, I'll even pay for the shipping if you want some and shipping is the issue

Please note the top of the original post! I forgot that Andrew had to have minor surgery the beginning of this week.

I can't say anything about ICD24, but I had a tube of ICD7 as it was about the only paste thick enough to settle the large gap on the heatsink in my laptop and it was absolutely fantastic. Easily a drop of 10 degrees. Great stuff, and I can't wait for all the results around here. Hopefully someone can compare it to the old stuff and post the results? Perhaps that would give me the initiative to clean out my laptop again . And if it can beat out the more popular competitors (as I remember ICD7 just barely scoring lower than the best pastes) then I'd even consider it for my gaming rig. Just remember people, it is REALLY thick, I mean seriously thick. Also if you don't want to scratch up the IHS on a CPU or GPU or a heatsink, do a careful cleaning, preferably with some of those thermal paste removing compounds, of this stuff (at least ICD7) since its mixture of diamonds can cause lots of microscratches (removed some of the lettering from my GPU when I was doing some testing of pastes). Have fun peoples. Jealous am I.
