FUZi0N Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 Yes. I've used it to attach heat sinks to various memory chips, primarily video cards. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psywar Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 I have used it back in the day to attach a TEC to a heatsink as well. Oh and my old ghetto ram cooling back in the day when I attached Pennies to my Ram to create cheap ghetto heatsinks.. I think this was like back in 2002..

ohldboy Posted August 24, 2013 Posted August 24, 2013 Tape is not as efficient as paste. Can be difficult to apply with too. Works, used by OEMs in some applications. There is also permanent epoxy thermal glue. http://www.frozencpu.com/cat/l2/g8/c125/list/p1/Thermal-Thermal_Epoxy_Adhesive.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puck Posted August 28, 2013 Posted August 28, 2013 Tape works for memory and low heat stuff but is not as good as even cheap TIM. It loses its stickyness and falls off over time as well...the RAMsinks on my video cards back in the day used to fall off, so I would run AS5 with a dot of crazy glue on each corner. This is back when GDDR ran hot as heck and actually needed sinks, and the AS5 was noticeably better then tape. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
