Arctic Silver Premium Silver Thermal Adhesive 2 X 3.5 Grams
Cons:A bit expensive

Pros:It works, plain and simple
Comment:
The thermal tape that come with video card heat sinks are a pain to work with. Decide to get this and not use thermal tape. It does work but it cures pretty quickly, so you have to work quick.

Cons:It really sticks.

Pros:It really sticks.
Comment:
Good for heat sinks that lack a secure mounting mechanism. Much better than two sided tape or weaker compounds used or supplied by manufacturers. Do not use on CPUs or other applications where the heat sink may need to be removed.

Arctic Silver Premium Silver Thermal Adhesive 2 X 3.5 Grams
Cons:This stuff is strong, like our everyday home epoxy. Almost no second chance on your installation.

Pros:It does what is says, hold things without mechanical attachment. Better than double side tape.
Comment:
First, read the instruction on their web site.I messed up my installation on the first time, and I manage to remove the wrongly installed heatsink by putting the card in the freezer for 1 hour (in an anti-static bag). After that, the adhesive crystallise and it's "easier" to remove. Be sure what you are installing is where you want to be on the first time. Cheers

Cons: None

Pros: Works as advertised - bonds permamently

Works very well - permanently bonds heatsinks to chips. I've used it with reasonably heavy chipset coolers and it has never failed me yet.

Cons:None.

Pros:Works Great
Comment:
I bought this to readhere a heatsink to a specialty interface card for a large CNC machince at a factory. It worked perfectly and got them back up and running. Very good hold and heat characteristics were excellent. Would definately recommend this for odd jobs where you need the heatsink attached permanently.

Pros:holds ram sinks vary good great thermal transfer
Comment:
used it to attach ram sinks to my 8800 video card that came with my accelero s1 rev2 after they fell off cause the included take sucks.Now the ram sinks aren't going anywhere with this stuff on them and still have lots left might have to put some heat sinks on my voltage regulators on my mother board too.

Cons:Could cause shorts if not applied properly

Pros:Strong bondgreat thermal transfer
Comment:
I was not aware that this product existed until I decided I wasn't totally satisfied with thermal tape. Although I'm a little worried that I could mess up and short something on my video card, it's a risk I'm willing to take in order to ensure that ramsinks and voltage regulator heatsinks stay afixed.

Ce produit fait le travail; il colle et l'échage de chaleur est bon. Une bonne affaire seulement si on le pricematch.

Arctic Silver Premium Silver Thermal Adhesive 2 X 3.5 Grams
Cons:Pricy unless u price match it.. an then it's still not super cheap

Pros:Works as advertised.. :)
Comment:
Overall a very good product.. but I've found it best to use it in combination with normal pastes .. a tiny dot of this in the middle and mx-2 etc around it works like a charm and is still removable w/o breaking things later if needed.

Cons:Hard to remove

Pros:Strong stuff
Comment:
This stuff is strong. Once you put it on, it'll stay on. That being said, its very good quality TIM. If you want a less storng bond for easier removal, I'd suggest mixing some regular thermal grease in a 1:1 ratio.

Cons:None really

Pros:Great bondGood thermal contact
Comment:
This stuff is great for attaching pretty much anything that you want to stick and pass heat. I used this to attach some ramsinks to a video card with an upgraded cooler. Works great. I hear you pretty much can't remove the sink once applied, which is good. Gives that piece of mind that you won't have parts falling off inside the case.

Pros:Glues sinks better and permanently.
Comment:
I needed some to glue ramsinks on a video card. I mix 1 part of both and added 2 parts of arctic silver premium thermal paste so it would be removable by me if I need so. ((25%A+25%B)mix+50%Paste)

I was tired of thermal tape not sticking properly. If you want ram-sinks to stick to your videocard memory than this is it.

Cons:Expensive!

Pros:Cures Quickly
Comment:
I used a dab to glue a hold a temp probe to the side of my CPU heatsink to get a more accurate temp reading. The probe was originally supplied with tape that did not hold. I was also warned that the tape could start on fire! Aannyways.......................It works good. Now to find a use for the rest of this glue!

Cons:A little goopy, thick, difficult to spread

Pros:Great cooling, great hold
Comment:
A great product. Perfect for vid card heatsinks. Do be careful, though, and make sure to read what this stuff does, since a friend of mine bought it for his CPU and ended up gluing on the HSF, then ruined his CPU by pulling it off. Awesome stuff, when used for what its designed, and when used properly.

Arctic Silver Premium Silver Thermal Adhesive 2 X 3.5 Grams
Cons:- Slightly capacitive.- Packaging could be better.- A tad expensive (but worth it).

Pros:- Strong bonding ability.- Great heat conductivity.- Not electrically conductive.
Comment:
I bought this to fix a copper ram sink that had popped off of one of my video cards. The factory had used way too much white epoxy goop so the sink was barely making contact. Worked so well that I decied to redo all of them. Was able to increase my memory overclock by an extra 10 Mhz and I have plenty left over. Hard to resist using it on things I shouldn't hehe. Will definitely buy more when I run out whether needed or not.

Arctic Silver Premium Silver Thermal Adhesive 2 X 3.5 Grams
Cons:Pricey.

Pros:Great heat conduction, strong bond, mixes well with arctic silver 5 for less secure (easier to remove) bond and better cooling.
Comment:
I used this to attach a home-made heatsink to my PWM IC on my DFI Ultra-D and it worked like a charm. Just cut up an old heatsink, mixed this 50/50 with Arctic Silver 5 (for a less secure bond, making it easier to remove later if I need to - but still secure enough to attach without bracing) and I was done. Dropped my PWM IC temps by about 10C which is fantastic!

Cons:- The packaging is not the greatest.

Pros:- Great stuff. The bond, after full cure is REALLY strong.
Comment:
I use this stuff to attach Peltier coolers to heatsinks for industrial applications. The bond has yet to break BEFORE the Peltier does.

Arctic Silver Premium Silver Thermal Adhesive 2 X 3.5 Grams
Cons:1. Expensive.2. Permanent adhesive difficuly to remove if changed your mind later on.

Pros:1. Good quality.2. Provide heat dispersing and bonding in one application.
Comment:
I bought this for the adding the heatsink on chipset, and other heat soruces on the mobo. It is a much better quality in heat dispersing than the A/B adhesive comes with the Zalman's chipset heatsink.but $20 for 3.5gx2 is kind of expensive. And permanent adhesive guarantee headache if you want to remove the heatsink nice and clean.Anyway, a good product, but would prefer heat conductive tape, which is easier to remove.
