    Alright, as we know, IC diamond 7 thermal compound will scratch out the etchings on your GPU and CPU core after sometime due to the diamond powder.

    What I worry about is, after prolonged usage, would it be possible that the ICD 7 might scratch into the core and cause damage to the circuit inside the semiconductor core?
