New thermalright trueblack 120

[DTV DRAGON]

well got my new heatsink yesterday and in another post someone said that they were bad for uneven base, well the answer is yes! I couldnt beleive how bad it was, so I got out my 600,800,1000,2000 wet sand paper and a sheet of glass and went to work here are a few of the shots, sorry they are not that good as they looked better on the camera screen lol
the final result is a perfectly straight mirror finish!! difficulty scale 4out of 10
Iam embarrased to show a pic of my puter after seeing some of your setups lol

The important thing is, how many degrees C did it knock of your temperatures?

tried that as that was an option for me from doc, but made me sick, right now iam on hydro morph-contin for past 5 years, yes its hard with two kids and a wife but thats for another thread lol

No no no, too much at once got you too stoned, these things happen to newbies

[pantherx12]

Did you try drinking it as a tea?

As often its just the smoking if you taking it that way that makes people sick.

[DTV DRAGON]

well what I was given was a butter wich i could put on toast , make brownies etc.. and it was very very potent much more than smokeing i was told, .and it didnt agree with me at all. never tried it in a tea though what i have is fibromialgia, had it for past 12 years or so, now what they are kleaning towards if progressive MS not the fast agressive MS , had a MRI and it was inconclusive

[DirectorC]

Damn man I hope for the best for you. Your current situation must be bad enough as I can see you love your tools and mechanics.

[pantherx12]

Damn :[

What an awful thing to develop, I can only imagine what its like, I occasionally get insane back pain but if I have regular massages* its no problem, but knowing how much that hurts I can appreciate the pain.


Gota say, hope some medical breakthrough comes very soon.



* Cannabis also worked wonders as my problems are caused by my back muscles going into spasm, and ofcourse the drugs in Cannabis have muscle relaxant effects.

you still got this butter ? ......... sound intresting

[DTV DRAGON]

thanx guys!! realy appreciate itIts nice to talk about it to someone else as iam sure my wife hears about it enough from me on a day to day basis, I used to be a mechanic as well built and raced my own ice sleds but have not been working for past id say 8-9 years... actuall i do have the butter in my deep freeze,lol, this is almost pure thc I was told , i think he called it thc?

[DirectorC]

Yeah it's short for Tetrahydrocannabinol.

I imagine its probably 30% thc content in the butter, otherwise it would taste very foul indeed

If the Butter has not much discolouration to it maybe they mean they're using refined plants and extracting just the drug.

I imagine they would be since the other drug found in cannabis can often make you very lazy


Really sorry to hear that you lost those things, sometimes random illness like this just makes me angry you know?



As for Reefer86, you not made you not had Canabuter before? ( for medical use of course!)

[ehume]

Not everyone can use marijuana or THC. People have wide variation in their responses to it.

God bless you, man. I'll pray it's not MS.

But I have known a few friends to find some relief from it after I found out some people say it helps.

It's called 5-HTP it's an herbal supplement you can buy at most drug stores.
Might want to at least check it out.


On your heatsink, everyone should do that anyways, get rid of that nickel plated bottom!
Looks good, I can't believe they could release something like that... Wonder if it happened during the chroming process, I can't really imagine copper taking well to chroming.

ok did some prime95 this morning and at full load temp was 63. with the zalman it was 69. idle temps with true is 37-39 zalman was 40-41. not a big difference at idle but at full load the true came out the winner, these readings were at a 4.0 o/c as well. as for herbs Ive tried that whole side of it with no results, i think it was good for diarrea if i can remember correctly, although i did not try that herb you mentioned, I spent alot of money on the different herbs,
