Abstract: You know it (or at least you should if you're a Guru3D regular!) thermal paste, also called TIM as in thermal insulation material, is an often-overlooked part of most computer setups. You can simply use the pre-applied goop, or the thermal paste that comes with your cooler, and sure, still get reasonable processor temps at stock speeds...

When you're looking at where to buy thermal paste, there are a wide variety of options. Remember to carefully consider pricing and your own needs. TIM matter more when you plan to tweak your processor. We're not going to give away awards here as the appli...

Noctua has improved on an already great thing! The NT-H2 is a serious, high performing, thermal paste that is easy to apply and clean. The best paste for novice and any seasoned computer geek! Now let us check out the Noctua paste and wipes in greater d...
Well… that was unexpected! All pastes performed comfortably within a margin of error, with no anomalous recordings on any of the 16 test runs. This is interesting, as in previous testing that I've done, I have seen some more significant variation on other...
So as you can plainly see NT-H1 is clearly competitive to that of the current thermal paste monster "Arctic Silver". These findings are actually a bit of a shock to myself, clearly the stock thermal compound is no match for either paste, though as I st...
Although, the Tuniq TX-3 beat the Noctua NT-H1 thermal grease by 1 or 2 degrees, I would still highly recommend it. It basically boils down to ease of application and performance. The NT-H1 and TX-3 both provide really good performance dispite the temp...
Great performance, Easy to use, No burnin time, Subzero Cooling, Electrically nonconductive
Slightly more expensive
From this review, it is evident that thermal pastes do not cause a great deal of difference in temperature and so for the general user, it is not overly important which one you use.That said, overclockers and gamers looking to optimise cooling in every...

The Noctua NT-H1 Thermal Compound did better than many other compounds I have used in the past. I was very impressed with its overall performance and it was very easy to apply with the right tools (ie a compound putty knife). It gets an added bonuses f...
I must admit that I was really impressed by the Noctua NT-H1's performance today. NT-H1 was very easy to apply; demonstrated a better stability than the other greases and provides very satisfactory results straight out of the syringe. If you're looking t...
