Hey all - I was wondering what your thoughts are regarding cpu shims for protecting your cpus? Whether you consider them worthwhile or not. I'll be using Arctic Silver III therm cpd with ThermalRight AX-7 heatsink and Thermaltake Smart Fan 2 on my Athlon 2500+ xp. I'm going for a conservative 10% to 20% performance boost for this, my first overclock, and I haven't setup yet (very soon!).
Thanks.
Thanks.
