Product Description

From the Manufacturer

From the Manufacturer

Cooler Master HTK-002 thermally conductive compounds are grease-like silicone materials, heavily filled with heat conductive metal oxides. This combination promotes high thermal conductivity, low bleed and high-temperature stability. These compounds resist changes in consistency at temperatures up to 177°C (350°F), maintaining a positive heat sink seal to improve heat transfer from the electronic device to the heat sink or chassis, thereby, increasing the overall efficiency of the device.

PRODUCT FEATURES

- Suitable for CPU, chipsets on Mainboard, VGA card, etc. - Easy to use. - Zif Socket Templates ensure correct applying area with various CPU socket types. - Produces an even layer when using applicator. - Dielectric. - Wide range of application temperature.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than old paste/adhesive, January 28, 2010

This review is from: Cooler Master High Performance Thermal Paste - (HTK-002-U1) (Personal Computers)

This thermal paste worked as advertised and I found it easy to apply.
The only problem was the so called mask sheet that is a total pain in the rump.
Toss the mask sheet and if you are that particular, use some good masking tape to
block it in. The masking sheet is way to sticky and is more trouble than it is worth.
Since I have not tried to remove a processor after a long period of time using this paste, I cannot say if it will actually stay pliable over a long period of time (years). From my experience, some paste/adhesives used are a total pain when trying to remove the heatsink/fan assy.

The little strip of thermal paste that came with a replacement heat sink for my laptop was garbage. The old cooling fan burned out because it was running overtime. The replacement fan was still running at top speed whenever it was on, so I ordered this. The CPU is now running substantially cooler. Before, the air coming out of the back of the laptop was just a bit warm, now that the heat is being transferred to the heat sink properly, it feels much hotter. The only problem I found was that there was no included template for laptops, so I had to make my own. Not a big deal, just a bit of a pain.

Quick and easy to use. I didn't bother with the templates, they seemed like too much hassle. Helped my system run cooler and now I can go back to video editing.
