Anyone have experience using Arcticlean on IC7 TIM? I am gonna be resetting my heatsink soon (as I am stripping down my rig and rebuilding it) and was wondering if anyone knew if Arcticlean works on the IC7.
 
Yes and so does alcohol. Arcticclean seems to be nothing more than the orange smelling degreaser that you clean your stove with. Smells the same to me at least.
 
Alcohol is fine, Artic Clean is better. The ONLY reason you need something like Artic Clean is to clean the slime left from Vram chips and Mosfets if your going to use dbl sided thermal tape to stick a small heatsink on.

I use Alcohol and Artic Clean, Alcohol is plenty enough for doing a CPU.
 
Excellent. I already have Arcticlean, having used it many times before, but I have just not used it on IC7 before, hence my question :)
