well bought some arctic silver 5 and put it on my barton 2500 but my temps didnt go down, im still at 35 degrees celcius with slk800 and a vantec tornado 80 mm, what is wrong?? and should i put some silver on my vid card
 
your cpu temp doesn't seem that high, but check the arctic silver site to make sure you applied it properly. About the video card, i think you need the epoxy for that, but i'm not sure.
 
Also, if you read the fine print, it says AS5 takes like 300 hrs to fully "break-in" and reach its optimum performance.
 
Interesting i've never read that fine print... so there must be a point where artic 5 breaks down no?.. would anyone know when?
