The Glitch - A Friend in Computing

The Glitch was conceived during 2004, and started out simply as a site to assist people with computer problems. Today the site has grown considerably and has become a one-stop shop for many aspects of modern computing and communication


PROCESSORS & COOLERS

The Glitch recommends Intel processors, especially the Core 2 Duo range. I generally find the price/performance ratio of Intel processors to be so good these days, that I find it unnecessary to consider any other manufacturer.

Compound

 StarTech.com silver thermal transfer compound improves the effectiveness of CPU coolers by thermally bonding the CPU to the heatsink. StarTech.com chose this substance to put into the heat-grease because silver is one of the best conductors of heat known. Silver grease is twice as effective as standard silicon-based heat-grease. Negligible electrical conductivity. Silvgrease1 was formulated to conduct heat, not electricity.

One tube is good for 4 - 6 applications.
