OCZ recalls thermal compound
OCZ Technology, a well-known vendor of computer components such as memory modules and coolers, said it would recall its Ultra 2 thermal compound because it did not meet declared specifications. Apparently, the thermal grease contained no silver, even though it should have 25% of silver by volume and 70% by weight.
[blockquote]In response to an article published by OverClockers.com, OCZ has submitted another batch of Ultra 2 to a third party for extensive lab testing. This independent lab report shows that the most recent batch of OCZ Ultra 2 indeed contains less than 1% silver by volume. While simultaneously the company also received lab reports from an outside source indicating the silver content to be 30% by weight. This lead the firm to the conclusion that recent batch or batches of OCZ Ultra 2 from their supplier did not meet the agreed specifications.
