I was just reading the Thermal Paste Aplications Thread and it reminded me.....
About a week or so ago, My brother, A city over from me, Had pulled his heatsink for cleaning and didnt have any Thermal Paste to put it back on with. So he just didnt use any. He Said he "Polished" both the CPU and HS before putting them together. I tried to tell him that Polishing takes days, Starting with an extremely fine grain sand paper and ending with a polishing compound and has to be done to a Mirror Finish. But he didnt want to go without being able to use his computer.
So what kind of destruction is going on under there? About how long does he have before his "Abrupt Lesson" is learned?
