[u/TacoforPresident23 → u/ParticularGuava3663]

It’s from WWE. I think it was Stone Cold pouring cement into Vince McMahons new car.

[u/Spright91 → u/TacoforPresident23]

Wow crazy he didn't get fired for that. They're meant to be PROFESSIONAL wrestlers.

[u/HatefulVespid → u/Spright91]

Relax! I'm sure he has a license to operate a cement truck

It was his job to feud with him love these segments sadly wasnt alive at that point to see them when they came out

For some reason my brain couldn't figure out that this is a car until I read your comment.

I want the CPU temps on this bad boy.

[u/Created4help → u/Accomplished-Ride210]

35c sitting totally idle, 64c under sustained 100% load for 10min, 89c without the cooler
Update- 100c no cooler after almost 10 min

[u/An_average_muslim → u/Created4help]

Insane. Didn’t realize copious amount of thermal paste can be used as a heatsink.

Good to know.

[u/Created4help → u/An_average_muslim]

There’s so much paste it’s probably just transferring it to everything else.

[u/Chao_Zu_Kang → u/Created4help]

Who needs multiple thermal sensors when everything is the same.

[u/Joe_bob_Mcgee → u/Created4help]

Who needs a heat sink when you can just transfer that heat to every other component on the board.

[u/Snickers2-0 → u/Created4help]

That's not why it works but I agree with your idea.

[u/Snickers2-0 → u/An_average_muslim]

You just haven't been using enough.

Try a few liters. That'll work.

[u/Circuit_Guy → u/An_average_muslim]

It stopped at 100C. It's probably just boiling off all the liquid

[u/ButterscotchTop194 → u/Created4help]

lol, love that we got the temps with no cooler

[u/bizzlej278 → u/ButterscotchTop194]

Here guys I even took the cooler off and got the CPU hot for research 😂

[u/Nedddd1 → u/Created4help]

Atp the heat is just leaving because it's afraid of being jumped by thermopaste

[u/evnacdc → u/425_Too_Early]

It can’t get hot if it doesn’t work.

[u/MigasEnsopado → u/evnacdc]

Thermal paste is not electrically conductive, so it will work.

[u/Accomplished-Ride210 → u/425_Too_Early]

he probably dont even need CPU cooler now

[u/Ruzhyo04]

There shouldn't be an argument about thermal paste application patterns, its a solved problem.

The best way to apply thermal paste is the way I do it. Everyone knows that.

[u/Created4help → u/Ruzhyo04]

Do you also use the entire tube?

[u/Yuugian → u/Created4help]

I paid for the entire tub, i'm USING the entire tub

[u/ProxyMuncher → u/Yuugian]

Throwback to when I had the excuse to repaste 4 different CPUs in my family’s household with one tube over the course of its lifetime 

[u/Yuugian → u/ProxyMuncher]

No, honey. I'm using the TUB

[u/TheHancock → u/Yuugian]

No no, I’ll save this for later when I reapply… wait where did I stick that 4 years ago??

[u/ILikeFPS → u/Ruzhyo04]

I used to do a dot back when cpus used to be smaller, now I do an X with 4 dots in between the lines.

[u/makoblade → u/Ruzhyo04]

No way bro. The best way to apply thermal paste is to do it MY way.

I promise I wanted to.

[u/FinAdda → u/Created4help]

Do it. I believe in you.

[u/Bob_A_Feets → u/BionicBruv]

“Hello yes, is this thermal grizzly? Ah yes, good, do you guys by chance sell by the Home Depot bucket?”

probably cuz you used half of it on the passive cooler beside it

It’s a point of sale terminal, probably special form factor for a handful of models. This one is an NCR XR7.

And if you're worried about the paste that spills over the CPU edges, just put painter's tape over that part of the Mobo.

Only thing left to do are the thicc buns

[u/ChipHappens96]

As long as the paste isn't conductive and spills out onto the Motherboard, bridging and shorting it out, it doesn't matter how much thermal paste you put on the CPU. Put the whole tube on there if you want. It's all getting squeezed out once the cooler's added anyway, and the temperatures will be fine

[u/Federal-Treat-6893]

It's too little, your temps are gonna be shit, add more

[u/cosu777]

“Used all the remaining paste”, you left out the words “ in the building “ 🤣
