Thermal compound

I grabbed this last spring and used about half of it so far.

Whitehawk how does that work for you? I'm in desperate need of some paste as I'm almost out.

OGMCVilleTC · Jul 28, 2015

Should I just grab this up? It's what I use on my main rig.

GC-Extreme is great paste but it's 10g and for the same price you can get 30 g Prolimatech PK3 or the 65g Mx 2 I linked above. You not going to notice the difference between the 3 they are all great.

Is the mx2 good for sub ambient? I don't use any paste that is conductive either.

Mandrake4565 · Jul 28, 2015

I use it for sub ambient and don't have any issues with it.

MX-2 is not conductive and is just fine for sub-zero cooling. :thup:

I've had good results with it, I heard there was a real good review in a magazine and the electronic and computer stores could not keep it on the shelves. This was a few years ago but it's good enough for me.
It's none conductive and does not dry out.

BTW, the big jar is 1 pound (454g) of paste :rofl:

I picked up three of these at Canada Computers for 9.99 CDN when they were clearing them out. Great stuff just like the extreme but cheaper. http://www.amazon.com/Gelid-Solutio...&qid=1438173314&sr=8-1&keywords=gelid+supreme

Arctic MX2 (cheapest in big tube) - my favorite.

Noctua is good to, but expensive.

Has anyone seen heard of the Grizzly paste. The site is German but supposedly it was developed with der8auer and can knock 6 degrees off your temps. http://www.thermal-grizzly.com/

Heard of it... and it is highly rated in looking at some review roundups...

I'd try it out but it has to be ordered from EU or UK AFIK so might be a bit prohibitive cost wise. But yeah I checked a few of the reviews, it's quite impressive.

EarthDog · Aug 4, 2015

Yeah, just like most other pastes, its within a degree or two of things readily available. I'll stick to the missionary/tried and true.

My local supplier has it so i might give it a try.

I did notice this stuff though

I 'm wondering if for air/water cooling it will reduce the hassle level of changing CPUs frequently v any performance loss. I might give it a try.

That is something that is used under board H/S like VRM coolers , it's not for CPU cooling just FYI
