* Thermal Paste *
When looking for the best thermal paste for a laptop or computer, it is important to consider the composition of the thermal paste. High quality professional pastes often contain effective compounds such as carbon, graphite, metal oxides and metal particles that act as heat conductors. In addition, you should choose a paste with good viscosity values, which allows you to evenly distribute a thin layer of material on the surface of the processor. Choosing a top brand that specializes in thermal paste ensures that you get efficient performance when applying thermal paste.
Properly applied thermal paste can reduce temperatures by up to 20%. In addition, modern compositions are very stable over time, but at the same time provide efficient heat transfer from the processor core. Careful application is important to ensure proper volume, as too little can significantly reduce thermal performance.
* Liquid metal *
Liquid metal, due to its higher thermal conductivity and larger contact area, can provide a more efficient thermal interface than standard thermal paste. But, liquid metal can make poor contact with some metal surfaces, such as aluminum, if applied incorrectly or in excessive amounts; this can lead to sub-optimal cooling performance. Thus, liquid metal should only be used on copper-based heatsinks. Thermal paste is generally easier to apply than liquid metal and offers a lower level of performance, but is much less dangerous if handled incorrectly. As such, I recommend checking out the liquid metal application guidelines before using it.

Ps5 test soon??
@@klawi-khanez-dzi do not think he will because the ps5 uses Liquid Metal witch is better then regulair thermal paste there are also not a ton of difference between Liquid Metal thermal paste brands
Can I apply liquid metal to my laptop cpu?
Qqq
Thank you for taking the time to test these pastes and give numbers. I really appreciate this!
I did it! After remove a bunch of dusts and repaste the thermal gel, my XPS works as smooth as new right now. Thank you so much. Your video is really easy to understand. 🎉
Last time I built a PC the mx-4 was top, nice to see it's still near the spot all these years later
🚨According to Gamers Nexus, unlike CPU where you can apply the paste in many different ways, when it comes to GPU you should always spread the paste over the entire die surface.🛑
nice video, definitely liked your attention to detail through every step of the way. its nice to see continued comparisons of popular thermal pastes. personally use gelid gc extreme and always had great results in all applications.
GC Extreme solved my pump out issues on my old Sapphire Nitro R7 370 4gb.
would very much recommend it for GPUs, Laptops or anything direct die!
I'm happy you made this video. I just bought a new CPU/Mobo upgrade and wanted the best available paste but I already had a tube of Arctic Silver 5 so I was skeptical of buying something else. Now I know that I might have saved 1 degree total
@user-fiendly186 I have an HTPC I built over 10 years ago with Arctic Silver 5. Just recently took it apart and reapplied Arctic Silver. Never had an overheat issues with AS5 even in my desktop gaming pcs. The way I apply it is with a credit card and apply a thin layer to the entire top of the CPU. Worked great 10+ years ago, still works great today. You want minimal paste on the CPU, just enough to close up any gaps between the heat sink surface and the CPU surface. Less is more.
What isn't said in the clip is that Artic Silver 5, although the manufacturer doesn't say it, has a curing in period.
I spread a thin layer over the whole CPU and then put a 'dot' in the middle. My theory being just spreading can cause air being trapped, and with only the dot, you risk not covering the whole CPU.
Hm, that's quite neat idea 🤔
That’s actually really smart
I was just thinking about trying this the other day.
If I understand you right. You do the thin layer he showed, then you do a second layer "dot" and use that plastic thing to spread the dot?
@@lookingatdaisies9901 I think the process would be letting the dot in the middle to spread out naturally
Thank you for testing
Great results!
This really gave me new insight and was debating what thermal paste i was going to get and I had my eyes on Arctic MX-6 because i used to have the MX-4 and i loved but and this video helped be to decided to just stick with the MX-6. Thank you.
might as well buy grizzly or noctua if you have high budget
And how much life service have? @@iikatinggangsengii2471
Great testing method. I came to this video hoping to find that my NT-H1 tube was a decent buy. Turns out it was. 😊
Based on tests from tomshardware, the results varied when they used air cooler over water. The NT H1 and H2 swapped places when air cooling was used over water.
There are tons of variables involved in assessing how effective it is like mounting pressure surface of processor cooler effectiveness...etc I guess the only thing we can really say is that a top 10 paste will all be around the same overall so it matters little (excluding liquid metal). We need long term effectiveness tests. No one does that.
Room temp & Humidity & Air in the room & heat caused by gpu/vrm & spread & air bubbles & tightness of cooler.
They all can play a role and be within error.
Plus just the way to apply it. You can't use the exact same amount for all of these pastes. Arctic Silver 5 is VERY finicky, but it's the best out of all of these when applied correctly.
And when I say it's finicky, I mean it. I've applied it, gotten temps that were 6C too high, then reapplied it and gotten -8C+ temps than I had just gotten. Too much is a bigger problem than what looks like too little. You can not coat the CPU like it's peanut butter on a slice of bread or you will not get the best results.
I'm not saying it's better than Thermal Grizzly, never messed with that stuff, but I've got years upon years of using AS5 on CPUs and GPUs and there is a special way you have to apply it and spread it, and a very particular amount you need to use to get the best results.
That said, that may make it the WORST paste for beginners. When you can get 8-10C temp differences just because of using a tad too much, that could be a problem. When it comes to AS5, less is more. It's SUPER thick and hard to spread, so it makes you want to just add more paste to fill in any gaps... but that will have you adding too much before ya know it.
Also, you spread paste, you don't put a pea size drop and squash it with the heatsink. AND you apply and spread some on the heatsink, also. I'm just saying, I've done this probably 100 times and have gotten it down to a science. I've watched so many reviews, and my Fuma 2 Rev B with AS5 gets cooler temperatures than everyone else I see online, and I don't even keep my house cold. I average 58C in most games, and 62C in BF2042 which pushes my 5900x to around 45% average usage which is around 115 watts average, I believe.
And that's not even talking about the core temps. That's the hottest temp on the die. Core temps are usually 10-15 degrees cooler than that hottest temp HWiNFO64 shows.
BTW, did I mention NASA used Arctic Silver 5 on a piece of one of their space shuttles?
Yeah... it's that good. They didn't use MX-4. They didn't use Kryonaut.
They used friggin' AS5. 'Nuff said.
@@stephenxs8354when it comes to using the top respected pastes yeah I agree the change is so nuanced and minute that you should just use the paste you like more for whatever reason you have. Be it easier to spread or use or you just like the name better or the color even, it really doesn't matter at that point because the difference is usually so negligible it's not worth fretting over.
Glad I chose MX-6! Great video, this is the best video for thermal paste on the internet!
Do you still use the same paste or applied a new?
For laptops you should compare clocks not just the temperature because most of them are thermally throttling around 90c.
How do you do that exactly? Sorry I'm new to this
In this test that doesn't matter as highest temp was 84°C.
Dumb, it is because regulations of Dell BIOS kernel. He says right. The video is detailed but missing the facts.
was shopping for some paste and got the mx-6 before watching this vid, glad i picked that one
Thanks for showing laptop-specific tests too! I'm thinking of redoing the paste on my 2019 Macbook Pro (a notoriously hot laptop that _really_ gets angry when I have to run Docker) once it's "decommissioned" from being my work laptop and I start messing about turning it into a personal server (running Linux of course). This is a great guide to know what paste to look for!
The brand paste and application techniques seem to all come down to only a few degrees C difference. It's only worth worrying about if youre a serious hobbyist & want every last bit of cooling, overclocking, etc. For regular use, pea sized amount is fine. Place the heatsink down and let it spread the paste itself. I have always used this method, since the 2000s, and done this countless times on CPUs, re-pasting video card GPUs, and a few laptops. I have done it on CPUs up to 125W TDP, with air cooling. I use Arctic Silver Ceramique 2. Great vid
Thanks a lot for going through this, for the tests. You deserve the subscribe💪
I used GD900 on March 2022 and keep notes on max temperature of my i7-4770 when running cinebench R15 multiple times. It was 61 C. Today, on April 2023, it still at 61 C max. I know for sure now that my GD900 is genuine, and it is just as good as my MX-4 in term of long term performance.
GD900 is really as good as Mx-4 when CPU max Temp continuously stays under 75c. But if you use a more powerful CPU and play CPU demanding game where temp stays above 80c... Then you will get a difference.
Can i apply gd900 on my Laptop. Is it suitable for it ?
Thank you for this video! Very informative and well-put! ❤
Shit.. I built my first PC and the cpu arrives tomorrow but the thermal paste I I got is the one literally at the very bottom of the list 😂
Only thing I can say is that the directions on the package is recommended for applications with a heatspreader. Always spread thermal paste on a direct die application…there is a small chance the difference in mounting pressure can crack the bare die.
GD900 hands down. Bought a 30g 3 years ago. Have build a decent amount of pc's with it, never any issue. Use it on my laptop XMG Apex 15 ( Ryzen 9 3900 , 2070 mobile ), no issues, temps are fine. Repaste every year and it's fine. 30g GD900 tube costs the same as a 4g MX4 tube where i live, not a difficult choice for me then. This reminds me, i need a new tube....
@@gibonzproject9710 30 g in bed ? Is that some weird fetish or something ?
@@gibonzproject9710 maybe u should read what i said. I change the paste every year and i have build alot of pc's with the 30gr tube.
Great work! Thank you so much for the information
i would highly recommend thermalright tfx - due to its high viscosity and the fact that it doesnt pump out. i used kyrounaut and mx6 and both pumped out (the mx6 after 2 months , i started having higher edge temperatures and the fans spinned faster). highly recommended for gpus and laptops.
I would like to see an updated testing suite that includes graphine thermal pads as well.
Amazing video!!! Super efficient and informative. Keep it up.
The temperature differences between thermal pastes are so small, that the best thermal paste is the one, which can last longer, and will not loose its performance over extended periods of time. Who needs thermal paste, which should be replaced after 6-9 months?
Noctua NT-H2 wins 5 years lifetime
I have very good expirience with Arctic MX-4. I have used it for 8 years or so & only changed it every 3 to 4 years on both CPU & GPU in my desktop gaming PC. I do have good cooling on both of these which definitely helps a lot, but I'm also very confident in recommending the MX-4. It has a good price & gets zero complaints from me.
Hi. Great video! Just subscribed! Thank you! ❤
I used the Artic MX-6 a few days ago to re-do my 5 year old Termal paste X) it was about time.
I ran out of paste so I thought about it for a few minutes and all I had was High temperature axle grease so I used it. Two weeks now and it is working better then regular paste.
Great job, but are those test results with considering pump out or did you just apply it and went to the races?
Congrats, the best guide of termal paste in The net !!!🎉
Excellent video !
Love your testing video! Also, I came across a brand called " Iceberg Thermal" and their thermal paste performance is as great as those big brands! Maybe you can test it next time.
Thanks so much for this information, surprised that arctic is as good as noctua.
Ive heard tfx is very viscous and last a very long time id be interested to see how preformance compares to the rest of these paste especially since such a thick paste would be less susceptible to pump out over time for gpus and laptops.
Very good video, thank you.
2:56 All thermal pastes for the procesor- perfect! 1-2 degrees is not a problem!
I would've liked to see the newer coolermaster offerings like the CryoFuze Nano against the older mastergel pro v2.
A great video, thank you very much
Beautiful video thanks a lot 💯👍
What stress/stability software, do you recommend, to check the GPU and CPU temps of a laptop?
How about a vid comparing laptop vacuum coolers or cooling pads?
Thank you for the video.
Hi! Have you bought Noctua NT-H1 this year, or previously? I see now they use other design of packages
With Kyronaut after 2-3 weeks temps are getting worst and worst. After 6months 30% is gone, and the rest is just dry. If the MX-6 can sustain the same performance for like 3years than it is very good paste, but still is it better than PTM7950?
Such a good job 👍
Bro, i love your channel.
I use Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme on a 13900K with a Kraken Elite 360 and sit a 30 C idle and the hottest I have seen is 62 C under heavy use
the laptop part was informative and I made the right pick not that I have a laptop but I do have a steam deck and both are similar in that space is tight shame metal is to risky for deck use
Great comparison, loved it! I own a laptop with an i5 and GTX 1650. I don't really kill it but I've had it for about 3 1/2 years and was thinking of a deep clean and new thermal paste. Even if I don't use it to the edge of death would it be smart to use liquid metal? I would assume that regardless of use the better thermal agent would help substantially right? Thanks
Metal is fine for Laptops - if the die is facing down, there's no risk it can get on anything else. For standard pastes, Kryonaut is literally 10-20c cooler than anything else I've tried for my 15w non-gaming i7 Dell, but expect maybe 10c under load in gaming laptop over stock and other pastes. It doesn't make sense, but Kryo is by far the best in Laptops, especially if they have low thermal mass and bounce off 100c when turboing like most newer Laptops do. At around 4 years old, just cleaning the fan/heatsink is gonna net way lower temps, and Kryo or LM isn't strictly necessary since you're not limited by temps and can't overclock. The biggest gains when not limited by cooling are just peace of mind and typically quieter fans under load, which you may not care about.
I have been using liquid metal on everything, for years. Awesome stuff.
My only question is what kind of load did you put on the system? Was it a load that maxed out what's being tested?
Thank you for this video. I have a question about pump out and dry out for direct die contact. Have you seen or experienced any of those from long term usage from any of the pastes? I read they Kryonaught will dry out after long term exposure to 80C.
Kryo hasn't lasted me less than a year or so on very hot Laptops with shitty cooling (15w, non-gaming), and between the tiny die of my i7-1065 and and the shitty cooling, it's by far the worst torture you can subject Kryo to. It runs at 100c under load on any other pastes and maxxes out between 18-23w CPU package power, while Kryo runs 10-20c cooler inexplicably and somehow also acts like more thermal mass, not hitting 100c even under the ridiculous 50+ watt short-term Turbo TDP but still it averages 85c or so and hasn't noticeably degraded faster for me at 90c for hours a day than laptops with way better cooling at 60-70c.
It's just a short-life paste no matter the temp, and anyone who cares about this stuff is gonna replace it before it gets really bad after 12+ months. I just tried Hydronaut because I'm tired of paying Kryo prices and my last tiny 1g syringe was defective and too dry to use (it came out like nearly dried silicone caulk and was impossible to apply because it kept sliding off my 1065 die), and as I feared it's as bad as all the other pastes I've tried and I'm back to 100c load though at full clocks (but Kryo never would hit 100c as same clocks/power).
TL:DR any paste as good as Kryo for direct-die is because it's similarly dense/viscous, and is going to dry out faster than shitty pastes that dont matter for Desktops with integrated heat spreaders and far lower thermal loads per die area. For gaming laptops/direct-die desktops, GPUs it'll handle 80c for a year pretty easily, for small-die 15w CPUs with shitty cooling that area designed to turbo to 100c sustained, it's probably one of the worst but still as stated I can get about 12 months
Test them in a closed airflow systems like inside a case, testing it open air of course it will have nice results.
thanks! put mx6 on my 3070ti - got better temps for 1-2 C!
Interesting. So why did you only test the SYY 157 in the cpu test and not the rest? Is it because it's similar to the thermalright?
Really well done testing. I use Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut for everything (GPU, CPU, Laptop, Multi/single processor Mac Pro, etc) and have for years. I have a friend who works on just as many varied units as I do. He exclusively uses Arctic MX-6. Guess what? It doesn't matter! Any of these top rated pastes will work fine although some will last slightly longer than others. I have taken apart hundreds of MacBooks over the last 25 years. Many of them have never had their bottom cover off and are over a decade old. So how does the paste look? Most look just fine. And my testing shows that new paste can sometimes help but normally not a whole lot.
Do you have any comparison between Thermal Pads like Kyrosheet and Carbonaut for gaming laptops?
Thanks for doing this as I know it takes a lot of time to compile and do the tests. If you are ever inclined to update the comparison would appreciate if you added a very old standby which I use frequently (Arctic Silver Ceramique or Ceramique 2). Mainly as it's a /LONG TERM/ paste (i.e. 10 or more years in active use) and extreme temp limits (-150C to +150C). I've done small comparisons in the past but nothing as comprehensive that you've compiled. I mainly do datacenter (as well as my own home) work so 'cheap' and 'good' are both important when doing 1000's of systems a year from laptops to mainframes.
Can you do the addition of the thermal pad PTM7950 Honeywall?
Thanks
Can you create a video for ptm7950?
What you think about tf9? Is it gonna be better than tf8?
Wanna buy it for 13600k and replace mx6
sir how would "Asus ROG RG-07 Performance Thermal Paste Kit" fit in this ?
very nice video. very informative. Thank you!... lazy ppl like me.. please use MX-6 or 4.
I bought a 1g Kryonaut for my ROG GL703GE. The reviews were convincing. And it was great...for a while. Kryonaut seems to suffer from the "pump out effect". The most demanding games I played on this laptop so far are Dying Light, Mirror's Edge Catalyst, modded Minecraft, and Subnautica, and I don't even play them very frequently. In less than 3 years, I already used up the 1g. :/ Other laptop users have similar experiences. *Tl;dr: Kryonaut is not ideal for laptops in the long term.*
MX-6 seems to be my most affordable better alternative here in the Philippines. MasterGel Maker was also recommended, which's twice the price of the MX-6.
I wish reviewers would test the longevity of the thermal compounds. I bought some gd900 after seeing reviews about how great and cheap it was, not knowing I would have to reapply it like every 12-16 weeks on my 3070ti. I'm now looking for something that lasts longer so I don't have to teardown my gpu so frequently. How is MX6 working for you??? How often do you have to reapply?
@@ZuckerbergDaReptilian From what I've heard the "pump out effect" he mentioned only affects laptops, or coolers that don't apply high enough pressure on the CPU/GPU. I don't think it affects CPUs in desktops at least. Not sure about GPUs.
Hi, can you recommend an amazing affordable thermal paste for Tuf Gaming Laptop?
I think I had that effect on the TM30 paste I was using on my 5900X. Switching to the NT-H1 brought down my temperatures significantly.
Thanks for this added insight! Is helpful for me in my situation ❤
I have hp pavalain 15 gaming laptop which tool I use to check the heat temperature of my laptop which thermal paste should I use?
ben using cooler master gel for a while no pump out effect..it works !
mx4 pumps out ..terrible..temps will rise in a month!
Quick note: If you don't use a heat spreader, SPREAD THE PASTE. Don't use the dot method. Uncovered areas of the die could cause severe hot spots, including damage that may go undetected by the thermal sensors. So make sure no part of the top of the die is showing.
MYTH.
I use a generous pea in the middle and it's never been an issue for me. After removing the mounting I see it's had even spread every time, as long as you fasten the cooler properly it should be fine. On bigger CPUs though it's a different story, but for the smaller ones it's fine. I've successfully built more than 30 PCs over the past 20 years, fyi.
@@JamieR would you recommend the pea method for a acer nitro 5 laptop
speaking for laptops, spreading it can cause air bubbles and is much riskier. best way for anyone who's inexperienced is to apply thermal paste in a dot, apply the heatsink and then remove it again to see if it spread properly. if it did, reapply it the same way and you're all set. the surface area on a laptop die is really small anyway, which will make applying too little very hard unless it's actually a ridiculously teeny tiny amount. applying too much seems to be a much more common issue among laptop users
@@lavishlyvice Fair enough. Though apparently air bubbles aren't nearly the risk they were made out to be. Apparently they quickly dissolve or work their way out after a thermal cycle. I'd be interested to see if anyone has tested or measured this.
@How-FixIT
Is it okay to put a 0.2mm thin Thermal Grizzly Carbonaut - Carbon Thermal Pad on the CPU & Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Thermal Grease Paste extremely lightly smeared on the heatsink to fill in the fine milled surface that has hills & valleys ????? Both materials are highly conductive & transfer heaps of heat.
The reason why I ask is that if I use one or the other then I don't think that there will be adequate transference of heat. The amount I'm talking about smearing on the heatsink would be so little that it would only dull the surface of the heatsink & fill in the valleys of the heatsink.
So I am watching this video because I have a drone that uses thermal paste on the goggle receiver. You mention in the video that thermal paste will loose it’s heat absorption the longer you heat it up. Does this mean every certain amount of time I will have to take my whole drone apart to reapply thermal paste?
Is cooler master cryofuze violet electrical conductivity safe? I'm a newbie hence asking, wanting to repaste my laptop.
For those wondering what is the best way to 'spread thermal paste' there is a good trick that I stand by but you need an extra tube, order yourself some small sheets of clear perspex plastic, you can then try applying your choosen paste by making contact with the cpu or gpu with the clear perspex plastic and visually check the coverage, the idea behind this is that 'spreading paste' with a tool has to be done with more more 'care' as you can create microscopic air gaps in the paste as opposed to just laying a bead down and letting the two surfaces mate and resolve the spreading by pressure, various bead patterns will ensure the best results, i personally avoid any pattern beyond a line as those two beads joining under pressure can 'catch' air between them and create tiny air pockets 'or hot spots', try this method out :)
What electrolytic capacitors are on that board? They are all solid polymers
thx very good video
My god, i have never heard AIDA said in English before. Just say it like Aïda (the opera). Btw, very, very good video, the details, the tests, so spot on! Thank you!
I'm a little sceptical of TF8. I used it on my CPU a few days ago. I was getting a steady max temp of 80°c in Linpack. A few days later I was getting 87°c
TF8 easy dry and turn solid...
I've been using a tube of TF8 for multiple cpu and GPUs, even though I agree that TF8 dries out quickly (in like a year or more). The performance stays similar to almost the same even when dried.
Have had multiple GPUs and CPUs on the TF8 paste for more then a year, been maintaining steady temperatures so far.
Interesting to see that actual robots have their own RUclips channels nowdays.
Is it okay to applying the paste on the heatsink surface that directly touching with the cpu & gpu ?
Because i was doing that on my laptop 😅
Very thanks❤❤❤
which thermal paste and thermal best for dell 1525 plz say me
if l kept the thermal paste in its syringe closed does it expire after couple years? please l need an answer before l buy new one
You should have tested GD 900-1. I have seen tests and it is better than thermal grizzly kryonaut ( tested on 140W ryzen ). Would also love to see GD 900-1 vs Thermal grizzly kryonaut on CPU/GPU that takes tons of electricity.
MX4 lasts around 6 years in my extensive testing. For a barely used laptop, it was around 12 years.
Prolimatech PK-3. .Year lights ahead of Kyronaut (wich has more flaws than features).
Wish you could have tested the Thermalright TFX
Also no matter what thermal paste or dust u clean, if the room you are in is hot, it still wont help much. The room needs to be cool during summer.
Where did the GC Extreme go on the gpu test
Ya my laptop keeps shutting down so I figured I'd try replacing the paste and it worked it's probably been on like 4 years I'm pretty sure i got it before the pandemic and replaced the paste probably unnecessarily it ran fin it was juat an older unit and I figured why not put the best thing short of liquid metal on it
Good thing i bought the TG Kryonaut
Mind if anyone suggest the best thermal paste to use. i have an acer predator 2021 i5 10th gen RTX 3060 and play games with turbo mode. CPU reaches 80-100c while gpu reaches 70-80c. Ambient room temp is around 29-31c. Turbo mode is not exactly overclocking right?
how would you rate gelid gc-4 ?
Honeywell 7950SP is the best thermal paste i ever used😀😀
Thermal conductivity of GD900 is 4.8 W/M-K,
What about GD007 (Thermal conductivity 6.8 W/M-K) and GD900-1 (Thermal conductivity 6 W/M-K)
sir please make a similar video on the types of thermal pads from different companies and how to apply them on the gpus' vrams, mosfets, power delivery, backside of mobo where the vrams are connected to backplate , because theres not a high quality video like this one on thermal pads application , only small size youtubers have dont it in a haphazard way , because they are of different sizes , different specs and not the same gpu needs various size of thickness pads for different components , it becomes difficult for user to change them , but it really affects gpus temps and life
8G of MX-6 is on sale for $9 at Amazon right now, killer deal!
Very Thanks Sir Good video, explained 👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌🤝👍👍👍👍👍🎉🎉🎉🎉🍫🍫🍫🍫
Would you like to inclue a new brazilian thermal paste in your tests
