Arctic Silver 5 AS5-3.5G Thermal Paste

Perfect! did the job. I only used a little and will save the rest for another job.

6700k 45c on load (heavy gaming).

Not the best thermal paste, but, it works

It is what it is

My 6 yr old Acer Aspire 77xx had started shutting off intermittently due to high temps. As expected, the problem got progressively worse. This laptop still seems to have a lot of life in it so I ordered this product based upon INET reviews. Fortunately my laptop was designed for easy fan/heatsink service with a separate cover allowing full access to the heatsink assembly w/o removal of any other parts/components. (Kudos to Acer for that) I removed the heatsink/heatpipe and cleaned the 2 relevant motherboard chips and corresponding heatsink surface pads with alcohol. One chip had a thermal pad which I discarded in favor of this thermal grease. The other chip had a dried out grease spot that I just cleaned away. I used a shop vac in reverse to blow out the heatsink radiator fins and fan housing (immobilize the fan impeller if you do this). I applied a moderate film of this product to the two chip surfaces and two heatsink pads and re-installed the fan/heatsink. Re-assembled, and so far, so good. In 7 hrs of runtime, the fan still kicks on to moderate and high speeds, but my CPU temps have stayed below 58C vs 90C shutdown. Ill come back with 5 stars if this lasts the remaining life of the laptop.

Could not be happier with Arctic Silver Thermal Compound. Great product; Works as its supposed to and my computer runs much cooler. Just make sure you apply it as directed. Thin coating evenly spread.

The RIGHT part delivered FAST at a GOOD price. What more can you ask for?

Works excellent!!!! Thank you. Good thermal compound.

The best out there.

I bought this by reputation only and it does what it is supposed to do. I would recommend it because it is easy to use.
