    I just recieved a load of watercooling from HERE. They would seem to have what you need.

    Quick and painless delivery.

    What kind of chiller you got? And what type of CPU are you planning on using it with?

    The previous link has both the dielectric grease (called Heat Conduction Compound on the site) plus the neoprene shims sold as a kit for the various socket types...all made by Vapochill if you have one of their units.

    The description on the Asetek site is vague. Had a read through the forums and found a link...its a site I've used without probs.

    Coolercases.co.uk

    The dielectric grease is at the bottom of the page.

    Thanks for the replys. I am using a beer cooler which i think has a 1/3hp compressor in it. I am cooling an Opteron 144 which i bought a couple of months back. On water it does about 2.75GHz with about 1.612volts more voltage doesnt help that much as it takes nearly 1.7V to get to 2.8GHz. Temps were 44C load on water and with the chiller setup were 20C. Could get lower temps with the chiller by modding it and removing the thermostat as the chiller cuts of at about -5C. Not sure if i want to as i might want to cool beer with it aswell.
