Best one yet
« on: 02-August-12, 01:17:23 »
A friend of mine does tech support professionally and we were talking about silly things people do and I have now heard the best.

A person was assembling a computer and had run out of thermal paste. Well, the stores were closed and of course he couldn't wait to get his new gaming rig together, so as a substitute, he used peanut butter. I fairly sure he was able to get the peanut butter removed... the cpu didn't make it...

If they would have used 'squeeze cheese' instead, it would have worked out just fine. :yes:

Just a piece of aluminim foil, cut to the exact size of the CPU die could have sufficed.  :nooo:
Geez, if people cant even figure that the material to be used should have some sort of thermal conductivity. People like that should probably be told to use superglue.  :oops: :rofl2:

Not a thing, and thanks for clearing it up who wears it. ;-))

As for me? Being of male gender, I'm not inclined to ever consider to wear any. :biggthumbsdown:

Your CPU may have a preference of color however. :-*
