hi guys, Im still waiting for my 3m thermal pads for my 4890. i removed the stock heatsink and removed the pads from the ram (but the thermal pad is still on the Vrm's). I now need to put the stock back on!
I have some MX-2 by Arctic cooling. Now there is no clearence so i could use paste and the MX-2 is non-electrically conductive,(so it wont short circuit) non corrosive and completely metal free. so would i be able to actually use this on the ram between the heatsink, then i can actually use my PC again and pull out this VGA card!
Im sure i can if there is no clearance and the paste is not conductive.
PLEASE let me know guys thanks.
EDIT: just done some googling and it seems i can use it but please let me know if i will kill my card doing this.
