Toothpaste as thermal paste?

[Stoic Sentinel]

Well... if you say toothpaste works as thermal paste, would thermal paste work as tooth paste?

I so think someone that isn't me should test my theory.

Lol, agreed... for a month! Just to see some results... someone that isn't me either

Stupid idea honestly...like said wait until you get some TP

I don't think toilet paper would work either.

well mine needs to have new thermal pasted applied i need to buy some and i'm going to tomorrow or friday(yeah christmas woo woo)
I can't buy anything online though I wish i could volt mod my 8500 GT (AFTER THERMAL PASTE OR I COULD COOK A CAKE ON IT xD)but i can't find anything for the evga one

Just use MSI afterburner tool. It allows GPU voltages to be changed and it works for most cards (I use it on my Gigabyte 4870x2). You can download it here

it works until it dry's up (dries up??? how the hell do you spell that??? ) Anyway the hotter the cpu the faster it goes. It works as long as its moist .

dries

+1, and me neither, it is bad enough getting that stuff off my fingers, never mind my teeth and gums, would look like some kind of geezer

Was I supposed to use my CPU to brush with or a tooth brush?

yummy...

Seems to keep popping up that you can use tooth paste temporarily as thermal paste and works for like a day or so. Anyone ever tried it? Half tempted to try it til I can get some thermal later tonight.

Tried it on a Pent D 925....really...it`s as good as real cpu paste, but don`t expect it to last longer than 3 days....

Plus, it`s EXTREMELY hard to remove it....

That would be frickin hilarious if someone was dumb enough to be convinced to try super glue as thermal paste!

Please do! I'm sure it would be highly entertaining... That way we can put it in the "Youtube Thread" in the Off-Topic Forum
