Moonman,
     A suggestion if I may. There is a very high quality after market
thermal compound called 'Arctic Silver 3'
http://www.coldcpu.com/product.asp?alphacatid=THERMGR. Simply use some
rubbing alcohol to remove the existing thermal pad, and apply the Arctic
Silver as you would a typical thermal grease. When used in conjunction with
a high quality sink/fan combo, the cooling capabilities are excellent. I
don't know if you do any overclocking, but if so, this method will yield
you much better results than the typical cooling solutions provided by the
chip manufacturer.

I'm working my third week end attempting to make my Intel P4 upgrade work.
Never mind the MS OS and Office crap, I just would like to know what, on
that two ton massive heat sink, Intel uses to to dissipate heat.

It is a film/tape medium as it rubs of on my finger tips. It makes sense
that it is highly carbon loaded as it is such a good thermal transfer
mechanism. I have about two grand in this crap build after having replaced
the Intel crap mother board with my old standby Asus variety with much
easier install stuff.

I love and have used my P3 stuff for over a year now but must move up. Damn
this crap anyway. Anyway, does anyone have a line on what Intel places on
the heatsink to dissipate heat and can I use a thermal grease or other tape
that works "equally" as well? I sure as hell don't want to buy another
Intel
P4 processor just to get the heat sink crap thing.

MoonMan
