Hello Technetizens,

I'm investigating whether it makes sense to apply a connector lubricant to gold fingers on DIMM connectors and riser cards.  These are all small PCBs that plug into an edge connector with gold-plated contacts. The hope is to prevent those annoying failures that are "fixed" by removing and reseating the DIMM or riser card.

Does anyone have either experience with or advice on connector lubricants they would care to share?

Best regards,
Raye Rivera
