How to wipe silicon to the CPU to properly apply silicone grease to the CPU

With the improvement of computer performance, the CPU power consumption is also increasing, although now because of improved technology to achieve a certain degree of mitigation in power, but because of the increasing performance of the graphics card in recent years, also began to take the CPU power performance proportional to the old road, power consumption is still a worthy of attention, power consumption, Directly produced by the damage effect is the rise in temperature, because the palpitation over Pentium D that high outrageous calorific value baptism, now most of the friends have a high degree of attention to the heat dissipation, however, most consumers for the heat dissipation is simply considered to buy a powerful CPU heatsink, heat dissipation problem can not worry. In fact, this idea is very one-sided, because the CPU heat dissipation in addition to the CPU and radiator two obvious keywords, there is another non-negligible noun-thermal grease.

Tools/Materials

• Thermally Conductive Silicone grease
• Alcohol
• Make-up cotton

Method/Step

1. 1

   CPU Surface cleanup

   Clean cotton or cotton balls should be cleaned, carefully wipe. If some stains do not rub off can use some volatile liquid, such as: alcohol and so on. Do not use these liquids too much, cotton cloth or cotton balls are a little damp.

   For stubborn stains, to be repeated wipe, to avoid the use of hard items to smear, if the use of hard objects clearly will cause uneven surface, there will be scratches. After wiping clean the processor to dry, to ensure that the surface drying.

2. 2

   Radiator Check Cleanup

   See if the bottom transparencies are intact with the heatsink base. Before use, the players may have some residual adhesive on the film after they have removed the transparencies, which can be carefully scrubbed with a cleansing spirit or clean water. Dry the heatsink base after cleaning and do not use hard objects to touch the ground during the cleaning process to cause scratches.

3. 3

   Replacement of silicone Grease

   First determine the heatsink base and CPU contact surface size, in the center of the CPU surface heat conductive silicone grease, and then put the finger on the rubber sleeve (anti-impurities, rubber jacket is included), the thermal conductivity of silicone grease smear evenly, the amount of smear less. The use of finger sets, if there is no finger sleeve can choose plastic bags, remember not to apply directly with the hand, and then in a direction to apply the silicone grease to the CPU contact area, this is to ensure that the silicone grease can be filled with uneven heat dissipation place.

4. 4

   Squeeze a little thermal grease on the center of the CPU surface, then press the radiator and press the arrows to indicate the direction of rotation, ensuring that the thermal grease is evenly expanded and free of air bubbles.

   END

Precautions

• Silicone grease When you must remember not to too much, many of the poor heat dissipation will affect the CPU and the middle of the radiator fit.
• Silver-Containing silicone grease does not necessarily work, some silicone grease in the metal particles will be larger, such silicone grease effect is not very good. Too much silicone grease, such as the use of silicone grease inside the water is evaporated after the thermal effect will be reduced very obvious, thick silicone grease for small white and entry-level players have no experience, the thickness of the effect is not up to a good heat dissipation effect high.
• As far as possible to ensure that no air bubbles, no impurities, as thin as possible to make the silicone grease has better heat dissipation effect.
