Hi there, thanks for contacting HP Global Social Media Support! I am here to help! Yes, this pad will certainly work better than simpler, cheaper thermal pastes due to the particles it contains, even without (complete) burn-in, but you won’t get anywhere near the values of a good paste. Let me know! Regards, HP Support
Thanks for getting back to us, Since the laptop does not get very hot I'd suggest you try getting a thermal paste from a reputed brand, that should keep you going without any issues for a long time. Although, A reputed brand thermal paste could be a bit on the pricier side. Hope this helps! Regards, HP Support
@@HPSupport are y'all asking me or telling me that the laptop doesn't get very hot? This sounds like AI. I just want a clear answer on PTM 7950 or Thermal Paste.
It's better than any paste on the market. You definitely have more thermal head room, but most importantly you won't need to open your laptop for years. Regards, HP Support
So... Would PTM 7950 work better than thermal paste/grease?

@@HPSupport So I should use PTM 7950 instead? I don't think the laptop gets hot enough for the pad to melt and cool it down, which is why I'm asking.
