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.
