are thermal pads sticky on both sides?

[Illah]

I know, I should use AS epoxy or some ****, but I don't have the money and I don't want a permanent attatchment.

So, are these sticky on both sides?

I can't find thermal tape ANYWHERE for some reason. If you know where I can get any let me know.

anyone?

yes they are and they will leave residues on your core and heatsink. they suck!! don't use it.

Oh, it's not for my CPU! I have some AS3 on the way for that. It's for my vid card memory heatsinks. I'm not ready to commit to a permanent epoxy bond... I have these extra heatsinks so I figured I'd toss em on my card with some thermal tape or something.

Use Krazy Glue and AS
when you want to remove the sinks, put the Card in a anti-staic bag, Seal it...
Put it in the freezer for 30min, and the Krazy glue will come off Very easy with a Razor or Credit Card

AS in the Center, Krazy Glue on the corners

That's sounds good, jay. I think I'll do that. Plus, I can use crazy glue on things besides the computer (helps me justify to my girlfriend why I'm spending more money on the machine).

My spoon is too big!

yes, sticky on both sides. One side sticks to my fingers, the other side to the trash can
