UK Gamer has posted a review of RDJD´s K702 heatsink/fan for Athlon (Slot A) CPUs.

UKGamer has posted the first UK review of the Arctic Silver thermal compound.
The common white thermal paste which most of us use is made up to silicon. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this, however the conductivity of silicon isn´t as good as silver.
