> 3 dayIve never over-clocked a CPU before, so had never used thermal paste before. I followed the instructions, which guided me through the best way to apply the thermal paste to my particular CPU in order to get the best possible heat transfer to my heat-sink. Everything went well and I now have a faster PC running at a stable temperature, so Im very pleased. There is enough paste left to do this again and Ill be much more confident after my first go.

> 3 dayI honestly don’t know what I bought but my friend who understands all this says it what I needed so I can’t really write a review other then to say it (in his words) the correct one you don’t need much

> 3 dayThis is perhaps a misunderstanding on my end, but so far it’s really been a let down. It didn’t work at all for the purpose I was trying to use it for. I was basically replacing a hot end with new wiring. I added a fair amount of it to the wiring and none of it dried in a helpful manner, it was still not snug. My thermistor didn’t work at all. After repurchasing a different brand and using it again it worked right away. This is definitely not something I’ll order again.

> 3 dayAfter getting a very thin, even coating and re-installing the CPU Cooling block, I got almost NO Cooling (i.e. thermal transfer) at all. I had to use another brand (Arctic MX-2) before I got the necessary cooling effect. Also, When I removed the cooling block, there was ZERO adhesion to the cooling block. The CPU coating seemed to act like a coat of paint!

Greater than one weekIt was a life saver when we messed up the original compound on the cooler.

Performance
3 to 12 degrees centigrade lower CPU full load core temperatures than standard thermal compounds or thermal pads when measured with a calibrated thermal diode imbedded in the CPU core.
Coverage Area: A 3.5 gram syringe contains enough compound to cover at least 15 to 25 small CPU cores, or 6 to 10 large CPU cores, or 2 to 5 heat plates. At a layer 0.003" thick, the 3.5 gram syringe will cover approximately 16 square inches
Arctic Silver Thermal Cooling Compound Paste 3.5g High-Density Polysynthetic Silver
Arctic Silver 5 does not contain any silicone. The suspension fluid is a proprietary mixture of advanced polysynthetic oils that work together to provide three distinctive functional phases. As it comes from the syringe, Arctic Silver 5"s consistency is engineered for easy application. During the CPU"s initial use, the compound thins out to enhance the filling of the microscopic valleys and ensure the best physical contact between the heatsink and the CPU core. Then the compound thickens slightly over the next 50 to 200 hours of use to its final consistency designed for long-term stability. (This should not be confused with conventional phase change pads that are pre-attached to many heatsinks. Those pads melt each time they get hot then re-solidify when they cool.
The viscosity changes that Arctic Silver 5 goes through are much more subtle and ultimately much more effective.)
