Im looking to grab som GOOD thermal compound and mouse feet from the same site, cant find one. If anyone can recomend a site with both ( and supply link ) it would be very much appriciated.

Also, which compound should I get? I hear they are all very similar, so Im not going to be picky either way.
 
if you want them on the same site, youre going to get screwed for one or the other, since sites with cheap artic silver will also only sell brand-name and processed teflon feet at huge prices. on the other hand, electronics supply shops that would sell the mouse feet for 50 cents also would rip you off for a 1 oz tube of compound. its a tradeoff if you want them from the same place.

AS5 is the best compound.
 
I ordered some Nanotherm PCM+ last night, I thought Ide get quick responses with this thread, but I wanted to order before I went to sleep. PCM+ is good right? Ive heard alot of good things about it... *shrug*... anyone recommend any teflon tape? Like, any brand from a certain store or something?

Also, I saw that on newegg, but was kind of set on getting PCM+ for some reason, I didnt get a response here fast enough =/.
 
By the way... Im hoping this stuff will lower the temp on my SLK900U + smartfan2 with a 3200+. Ive got some gay Coolermaster paste I purchased from a local "your not supose to know shit about technology so we raised the prices on everything!" shop.

Basic Antec case EVERYONE has = 150ish. Gay.

You'll be lucky to get a couple degrees difference with the Arctic Silver paste. The Coolermaster paste does pretty well against the Arctic Silver. The main reason the arctic silver is better is cause its easier to apply and it does transfer heat slightly better.
 
I personally prefer Nanotherm XTC, it seems to have the biggest difference on temps.

For the it's cheap and it works, I just got some fragtape from fragware: http://fragstore.fragware.net/

But after I already ordered the tape, I saw these Xtrac Mad Dotz that look kind of neat: http://www.jab-tech.com/customer/product.php?productid=2038&cat=104&page=1

jab-tech also sells Arctic Ceramique for 3.99 with free shipping, but you already ordered Nanotherm, which is probably better anyway.
 
I noticed the optical mouse pads in that link. Normally with a smooth desk surface, I don't need a pad with optical mice. But I have noticed at my Mom's house and now at mine that the desk surface is a bit rough. Should this optical mouse pad help out?
 
I use Nanotherm PCM+ and I like it...FOr mouse feet, just look for teflon tape meant for mouse...
