Got some good info on the adhesive that we use for vid cards

Hey guys i use arctic silver adhesive to slap on my giant hsf onto my ti 4600 and i noticed it was much much cooler at first then after like 2 weeks the thing started getting hotter than with the crapp stock hsf on.

So i think the arctic silver in the adesive breaks it up and eventuly doesnt work wortha beens so people who mix the adhesive with the arctic silver should check how hot ur thing is really getting cuss just like arctic silver on the cpu is liquifies that what happens here and thats not good ...

Once epoxy sets, it does not change. Something else is causing your heat problem. Did you change the location of any PCI cards or cables that might alter the airflow? Perhaps the fan on the HS is slowing down.
