Ich habe einen Mac Pro (Late 2010) mit zwei Intel Xeon X5680 Hexa-Core CPUs. Der Hersteller hat folgende Warnung auf seiner Webseite: "Caution: We do not recommend using Arctic Silver 5 on the older slot type Intel Xeon processors with large multiple square inch CPU to heatsink interfaces. The huge contact area and large gaps between the processor and the heatsink require a thermal pad or thick mesh-reinforced paste. Arctic Silver 5 can be used on socket type Xeons without a problem." Welche der beiden (im Text erwähnten) Varianten ist im MacPro5,1 verbaut? Oder konkret: Kann ich Arctic Silver 5 im classic Mac Pro verwenden?

It shouldn't be a problem in my opinion, many YT tutorials use Arctic Silver 5 or similar for the CPU replacement on the Mac Pro 2010, I myself did it in March with this paste here: Cooler Master MasterGel Maker (11W/m K, 4g) and have had no problems so far.
