How to apply Thermal Paste to your i5 i7 heatsink - TESTED - SPREAD VS PEA METHOD

2012-09-11
hey YouTube what up this is bronies you just coming back to you guys today with a comparison and this time I will be comparing the pee method of applying thermal heatsink paste versus the spread method okay so basically first off I'm going to do the spread method okay okay we're going to apply the spread method now and something interesting to note guys is that yeah silicon grease is still pretty pretty moist like it's relatively wet and I've applied that for about three months now I think so silicone grease is great is a great thermal place basically now the reason I'm doing this guys is because people have said like ah you know the pee method is just the god method you know so I'm going to test them today I'm going to compare head-to-head spread versus pee okay guys and as you can see we're at 25 degrees ambient temperatures here so let's begin the spread method oh yeah okay guys we have real temp running and we're just about to stress test this just stress test in place maximum heat booyah let's let let's give that five minutes guys spread method let's give it five minutes and - when we come back see what temperature's we have okay guys we've given that a good you know more than five minutes and as you can see this is the spread method we've reached 65 degrees 74 71 degrees 70 degrees and 66 degrees Celsius max across the board at fifty four point two gigahertz as you can see there anyway let's get on to everybody's favorite the pee method let's test it b.p method this time so let's got real tamp open here in place maximum heat power consumption some Ram tested now let's give that five minutes in we'll come back we're coming back five minutes later and we can see we've got 66 degrees 72 degrees 72 degrees and 67 degrees on the pee method okay guys so there we have it the spread method verse the pee method now the spread method one by one degree but we can put that down to variance as the minimum temperature was also one degree higher which means that everything probably heated up whilst I was doing the test the actual room temperatures so the bottom line is guys there really is no difference how you apply your thermal heatsink paste what is crucial is that you apply a thin layer and I mean thin guys a thin layer of thermal paste between your heatsink and your CPU so there we have it guys if you are doing the pee method aka the god method as you guys consider it please do not give people who do the spread method as all in all they really don't make much of a difference so I remember one of my subscribers Kevin you put me onto a tech syndicate link and I was watching that video thoroughly and I noticed that Tek syndicate had said that they had tested the spread method and it was horrible so my results here are quite the contrary they are the same so anyway guys if you've got any comments please leave them in the comment section below I hope this video has enlightened a lot of you guys or has helped you guys and please subscribe to keep the Brian easygoing and peace out for now guys
