Dropped My Load Temp by 30 Degrees!!!!!

First off I just wanted to say Hi to everyone. I have been reading these forums for 5 months now and this is my first post.

I have a 9300 that was PM from a 1.8-2.4. Depending on where I was my cpu temps were hitting 95C under a load (yes I was using AS5). This was way to high for me and looking at other peoples posts, I was not the only one with high cpu temps. My first idea was to put a watercooler in it! Using old watercooler parts, I tried to put the pump in the battery slot and mount the water reservoir under the laptop. I finally gave up on this idea because of the pain and time it was causing. Time for my next solution!!!!

Is AS5 really the best thing on the market right now? I believe so till I did some research. We have a store down the road from me called Frozencpu and they just got this new stuff call Coollaboratory Liquid PRO Thermal Interface Material. I am not going to go into all the specs behind it but this stuff is pretty much mercury! (Please read all the warnings and stuff) If you don’t do it right you will break your laptop.

It says it can't make contact with aluminum. I don’t know what the cpu heat sink is made of and it could aluminum? What I did is purchase a 40x40mm copper block.

I cut the block in 1/4, just enough to cover the cpu. Because the cooper block raised the heat sink, I had to remove the springs out of the cpu block screws to screw it down. (I used AS5 on the top of the cooper block touching the cpu heatsink)

It says it takes 48 hours for it to work at full strength. I am happy to let everyone know that my load temperature is currently 65C after 3 hours of F.E.A.R.

I can't spell

Cooper = Copper

Re-applied the AS5 4 Times

I agree with you guys that I may have applied the AS5 wrong. I re-applied the AS5 4 times. Each time I cleaned off the CPU and re-applied a nice coat of AS5 (Including the sides of the cpu). In addition, I tried to adjust the tension of the cpu heatsink without any success. The Laptop was cleaned out with a can of air many times and did help a little but was not the cause of the high temps. My friend has the same laptop setup and we both has the same results. I say for 14 bucks some of you guys try it and tell me what happens for you guys.

......

Yes I have been reading the Forums for a while and I see no need to post a question that has been asked so many times. I didn't have poor results with the AS5, just sub par. Before I pinned modded I was using my stock 2.0 with AS5 and it was running great. I was able to knock off 8 degrees with the AS5. My problem really started with my PM and thats it. As a group I believe we are ALL looking for the best solutions out there. I was just bringing to the table something I have not seen anyone try. I also understand that everyones computer is different and PM results will vary. I wish I could have a load temp. of 60 with AS5, but that never happened after repeated trys. Note: I am still using AS5 on my GPU and that works fine, my temps are hitting 70C with a 7800GTX 450/1200.

I can see how it looks like we are trying to sell a product, but this is not the case. I have seen other post about people and their cpu temps. Only solution I ever saw was.

Re-apply the AS5
Clean out the Heatsink grills

If you guys are getting 60C load temps with AS5 this is probably nothing you will need. Personally I was very nervous about using it cause it has a very good chance of shorting out your system. I didn't know you needed 100 post to recommend something that was helpful for you. You think maybe Pacific Breeze employees are trying to sell their notebook cooler here?
