  1. Yup, read that (before posting even :P). Personally I think they wrote this a bit political, but don't me wrong, they aren't the type of people to go "mhhhhhh you didn't mix that properly hurrrr!!!!!!" anyway. With your channel size (and videos I have seen over the last years), I just expected better. Not perfect. Not close to perfect. Just quite a bit better than what I saw. So... I don't know if you took my post as a 100% "get fucked", but the reply definitely makes it seem so (to me). Maybe I can clear that up?! Like I said, I don't expect this to be GN level. Not your style, and definitely not your audience. But even so between the lines I stated that (and don't take this the wrong way again :D) "even you" usually have a way higher standard of doing stuff. IMO! (this is a compliment, hidden in a "that wasn't that good" post! ) (1) was meant for general lookup so folks don't need to google themself. Could have been in the video, but meh, not the end of the world. (2) (3) was meant as "business advice" - you just very recently had a fuckup with "not properly done your homework". I didn't expect ultrasonic/sandpaper, but at least trying to get a proper mix which is why I said (4) (5) Again general info without a hidden agenda. (6) Basically same level as (1) If whoever worked on this knew everything from the TI video, great, but like I said I didn't feel at all like that made it through to the actual video. I don't see the internals, I see the product.
  2. I happen to have used the Arctiv Silver product myself AND watched TEs video months ago. I will just throw some stuff in here since I doubt it will reach any useful "like ratio" on YT, and maybe clear things up for some folks. (1) thermal paste vs thermal epoxy ~5,3 - 12,5 W/mK = thermal paste > www.thermal-grizzly.com/en/products/16-kryonaut-en > www.gamersnexus.net/guides/2137-thermalpaste-types-conductivity-and-more 7,5 W/mK = Arctic Silver thermal adhesive > www.conrad.com/p/arctic-silver-asta-thermal-adhesive-75-wmk-7-g-max-temperature-150-c-150367 (2) RTFM You didn't watch the TE video (9:21) and you didn't even read the fucking manual (8:52) that comes with it. Shame. Shame. Shame. ^^ If you don't have the time to watch it, sure, I get that, but that's what you have staff for. (3) Mc Donalds knife for mixing And then on that little mass. Like, really. You aren't moving 75% of the stuff since it's just clinging to the plastic... (4) "We don't hate the product. People asked us to test this on a CPU and we did." Just read this here. I don't need you to be on Steve's level, that's totally fine with me. But this was 70% Verge. Feels like you half-assed this video from a comment recommendation without doing as much as 10 minutes of research. (5) Heating the mixture during the curing process Wanted to check if room-temperature curing epoxy becomes faulty when exposed to heat during curing - just seems to speed up the process though! "However, adding heat to the epoxy systems that normally cure at room temperature, will accelerate the rate of cure and boost the performance profile." "Q: Are there specific applications where adding heat during or after cure is advantageous? A: In nearly every application the answer would be yes, particularly in aerospace, where the requirements are so rigorous and the qualification process is so demanding. One can easily choose a two part room temperature curing product, but it's crucial for the engineer to know that adding heat will result in a better system." > https://www.masterbond.com/q-and-a/how-properly-cure-epoxy-aerospace-industry Doesn't seem to be a blank "just heat it, bruh" though, there are limits depending on the material. But seems like that is at way higher temperatures than a CPU will (hopefully) ever reach > http://rcsailing.net/forum/index.php?threads/post-curing-of-epoxy.5519/ Don't take this as zealotic "must prove wrong", I am simply not a chemist and wanted to know. There you go, we both learned something! (6) "What is it used for?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WJnrMNCahxc#t=13m5s Felt like a real world example might be useful here. E.g. I used the Arctiv Silver for modding my GPU with a Morpheus II, where the AS solved my issue of "how the fuck do I get the VRAM heatsinks to stick??" (copper mind you, and the aluminium ones already were close to falling off with pads...). That's the goddamn great thing about this. It is an ADHESIVE with GREAT thermal attributes! I remember semi-raging while googling for this shit back in September when I modded my 5700XT. Nothing useful came up, only some 1-2 W/mK shit like this https://www.silverbead.de/Silverbead-Waermeleitkleber-Thermal-Glue-Adhesive-fuer-Heatsinks-LED-VRAM-VRM-CPU-GPU Guess how happy I was when I stumbled upon the AS? (hey! Yeah, you! With the dirty mind! I see you!) - - - - - - - To sum up: If you make a 10m video out of a recommendation, please at least have someone watch/read and _fully understand_ what is presented in that recommendation, so Linus can get a proper summary to jump around with in front of the camera. And yes, I clearly care for TE, they are a fucking bombastic amazing channel.
