FREE Innovation Cooling 7 Carat Diamond TIM Giveaway!!
ALL POTENTIAL PARTICIPANTS MUST POST THEIR INTENT TO PARTICIPATE IN THIS THREAD IN ORDER TO RECEIVE THEIR FREE TIM (BEFORE OR AFTER PM'ING ME).
PLEASE BE SURE TO BENCHMARK YOUR CPU TEMPS WITH YOUR CURRENT TIM AND RECORD YOUR RESULTS BEFORE USING IC7 FOR TESTING. WE NEED BEFORE AND AFTER PLEASE! :thumb:
First off, a huge thanks to Gav, HWC administrator for allowing the giveaway to happen and ALL HWC staff! :biggrin:
In conjunction with HWC, Innovation Cooling has been gracious enough to extend HWC Forum and Folding Team 54196 members 50-100 Syringes of IC Diamond 7-Carat thermal compound for free (and yes...I'll even pay for the shipping via CP snail mail). What's the catch? Well, not much! Upon accepting the gift, we'll be asking to test the compound and give feed back to the forum in data form in a future results thread.
A snippet from the website:
" IC Diamond 7 Carat Thermal Compound maximizes thermal heat transfer between the CPU core and heatsink by taking advantage of diamond's superior thermal conductivity.
Purified synthetic diamond has a thermal conductivity of 2,000-2,500 W/mK compared to 406-429 W/mK for pure silver.
Diamond's five times better thermal conductivity compared to silver makes it a superior heat transfer material for cooling high performance CPUs and is electrically non-conductive and non-capacitive.
The giveaway is not just a great way to get folks like you and I our hands on a product, but worth even more by having us show results to use. We get to experiment and learn what works and what doesn't, IC gets to compile data that helps further product, and it's just quite an interesting adventure for us all.
Presently IC7 is not sold in Canada (but will be very soon!) so we thought what better way to break the Canadian ice than to debut it on the best Canadian tech forum! :canadianwave:
Who Qualifies?
How to get your sample
The first 50-100 qualifying members will receive their free ICD7!
The TIM results thread will go live on April 1st, 2009 and await all member's data results. Keep in mind, even if you don't get the free swag, you can still give application method feed back! All info and data gathered may also be used for consideration on the official website main page.
Please refer below for further instructions. All requests will be processed in the order they are received and due to time limitations, I will not be sending confirmation emails. If you need to contact me, an alternative is email as I'm not always able to access HWC from a PC. Please send all emails to nademon1 at gmail dot com, this may be the fastest way to contact me but ALL FREE PRODUCT REQUESTS MUST BE SENT VIA HWC PM SYSTEM (in the event my PM box becomes full, only then should you email me your request).
I will post up the closing time for the last request once the quota is reached. Sorry to anyone that misses the deadline or falls just outside the quota.
All general inquiries and minor support will be handled by myself and all heavy technical support requests will be handled by an IC7 Guru who will rear his big brained head shortly!
THOUGH THIS TESTING IS GEARED TOWARDS CPU'S, FEEL FREE TO USE IT ON YOUR GPU'S AND MOBO CHIPSETS AS IT'S COMPLETELY SAFE FOR THOSE APPLICATIONS. ALSO FEEL FREE TO POST UP YOUR RESULTS ON THOSE APPLICATIONS.
So start sending me your requests and let the testing begin! Remember to look below at the next post for important info and have fun!
Tubes will begin shipping next week. Please allow some time for delivery.
SIGNUPS NOW CLOSED.
THANKS TO ALL THAT SIGNED UP. PLEASE REFER TO THE RESULTS THREAD FROM HERE ON.
:canadianwave::canadianwave::canadianwave:
Please make sure and read at least the first 3 posts before continuing on!

Diamond's five times better thermal conductivity compared to silver makes it a superior heat transfer material for cooling high performance CPUs and is electrically non-conductive and non-capacitive.
Key Features
Each tube of IC Diamond Thermal grease contains 7 carats of micronized diamond with diamond particle loadings @ 94% by weight. Material loading above 90% is recommended as the best combination of rheological and thermal properties to minimize interface pump out due to thermal cycling.
Stability: IC Diamond is designed for stability - it will not bleed or separate under normal use.
Key Specifications
- Superior bulk conductivity
- Excellent thermal impedance
- Tight particle distributions
- < 40 µ maximum particle diameter
- Silicone free
- Lower viscosity
- Greater stability
- Non capacitive or electrically conductive
Stability: IC Diamond is designed for stability - it will not bleed or separate under normal use.
Key Specifications
- Thermal Conductance: 4.5 W/m-K (data acquired with an ASTM D - 5470 thermal interface test instrument)
- Thermal Resistance: 0.25oC-cm2/W@ 100 µ BLT
- Average Particle Size: <40 µ maximum particle diameter
- Compliancy: RoHS Compliant.

Who Qualifies?
- 1) Must meet one of the Following
- Must have a valid account at HWC for over 365 days/one calendar year, OR
- Be folding for HWC team 54196, OR
- Just be a forum member with over 100 posts (Any attempt at spamming to get into the 100-post window will be severely beat with a trout and immediately disqualified)
- 2) Must agree to test the product and give feedback to the forum, and thusly to Innovation Cooling (Current load/idle/ambient temps then load/idle/ambient temps with IC7; feel free to include what TIM you were using prior to testing IC7)
- 3) Must be a citizen/resident of Canada (Innovation Cooling is only agreeing to ship to Canada, which shouldn't hinder most of our members from qualifying) The more data you feed, the better off this will work. You'll also be able to get assistance with your products and/or methods as well. This can be a very hard task for just one person to do, but it's not all that difficult while 50-100 or more others are all working together. The specifics will be posted in the Results Thread, we'll be looking for simple data feedback, but are really looking forward to actual comparisons in application methods and even comparing products from other manufacturers. I'll also be hand picking several HWC members to send these other brands to in order to do these comparisons, which will include each having a blind sample as well.
How to get your sample
- Post here saying that you agree to test for Innovation Cooling and are stating that you will absolutely give results.
- PM me with a topic Title of "IC Diamond" with your name, FULL SHIPPING ADRESS (unit#, street, city, postal code), and validity of your qualifications (all personal info including name and address will be kept strictly confidential. It will never be given out nor will it be used other than this one time to mail out your IC7. Once I'm satisfied that everyone has received their tubes, all name and mailing info will be destroyed). I can tell post count and join date, but I may not know your actually folding for 54196 since we seldom use our forum names.
