IC Diamond 24 Giveaway/ Reliability Survey

[dookie11]

Probably time to define a procedure for laptops, we have not had much urgency as you guys have been doing pretty well on your own.

Better too much as the excess just squeezes out, we have mic'ed this and @ 60 psi ambient room temp for 2 hours and Bond line thickness (BLT) is 95% and overnight 99%, of/ resolves down to the average particle size.

too little has the potential for a bad install which on a notebook is more of a problem than you would have on a PC if it had to be redone.

Hi,

I emailed support yesterday regarding the giveaway. What would you say is the expected delivery date of the sample (if we qualify)?

Thank you! I'm really looking forward to a repaste cuz it's getting hotter down here in SoCal.

Thanks Andrew for the ICD which I received this morning, I'm waiting for my thermal pad for the IGP, once I received that I'll apply and post the results.

Got mine today! (took like 4 business days from emailing)
Will install it on the T420 Thursday or Friday after midterms are over.

I have applied ICD24 today and these are the results before and after applying(after running Orthos for 10mins)
I found it easier to apply, first applied a small amount and put the heatsink back and tightened the screws, then removed and checked the die and the heatsink to see how the compound had spread, cleaned them again and put the right amount of ICD24 and let the heatsink spread it for me. For laptops the size of a grain of rice is all you need.

I'm in the same boat as you man. When i subscribed, they hadn't started the strike yet and it's uncertain whether we'll ever see the tube due to the strike. It will depend on when the tube makes it to customs and if it can get through. I can't find ICD at NCIX either and i can't find another place to order from in Canada.
