Noctua NT-H2 3.5G, Pro-Grade Thermal Compound Paste Incl. 3 Cleaning Wipes for Desktop PC (3.5G)

UPDATE: Used it to re-paste my old laptop. Considering it gives out more heat now during load operations, I'm assuming it's working great. But then again, my laptop is more than a decade old so....yeah.Summer temperatures update:Alright. Summers are here in full effect. Ambient temperatures here in Dehradun are around 38° C average. Nowadays, the idle temperatures range between 50° to 55° C. Under full load when stress testing, maximum obtained temperatures were always around 80° to 82° C. When rendering videos in both Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, it averages around 75° to 80°C. And during gaming, temperatures never go past 72° C. Yeah....the temperatures have risen considerably now, compared to winters and spring, however I'm just using a budget air cooler, so it is still decent. Also, it's still better than what I used to get with the stock cooler and paste (+95° C on full load and +82° C when gaming). Also, my only exhaust fan died too, so there's that as well. I'll be upgrading my cooler, fans and maybe cabinet too, sooner or later, so maybe I'll post a third temperatures update here.This thermal paste lives up to its name. I personally used it for repasting my desktop. The processor is AMD Ryzen 5 3600, paired with a Cooler Master Hyper H410R RGB CPU Cooler. Even in the heaviest benchmark loads, temperatures never crossed 69° C (nice 😀). On idle, I get around between 30° to 40° C and between 55° to 63° C at the most when gaming. These are winter season temperatures, by the way. I'll update the summer season temperatures too.As for applying the thermal paste, it might get a little difficult first time, so I'd recommend watching some good application tutorials. The paste, in good conditions, is neither too liquidy nor too solid. Simply put, make sure to clean off the old thermal paste using +90% isopropyl alcohol, then just apply a dot of the thermal paste in the middle of your processor's TIM: around 2-3mm in diameter for Intel processors and around 4-5 mm in diameter for AMD processors, then mount your cooler. DON'T PUT TOO MUCH THERMAL PASTE. It's easy to get overboard.Don't be alarmed if the temperatures, immediately after repasting, aren't desirable or even higher than before. Thermal pastes have a specific cure-in time to spread and set properly, so continue using your PC as normal and the temperatures should normalise eventually; considering if you were sure the paste was in good condition and you didn't mess up both repasting and cooler mounting procedures.In my opinion, it's worth the Rs. 617 I paid for.

Very good thermal paste, value for money, very good thermal conductivity, recommended

I used this for my hp pavillion gaming laptop15.Specs:i510300h and GTX 1650.Saw drastic decrease in temps, especially for the CPU. The previous paste i used Arctic mx4 had pump out which made the paste useless after 2 weeks.This does not show any performance degradation with time.Also you will have to use the system normally and make it go through some heat cycles for the paste to work as intended ,even tho they claim there is no curing period.Overall a very good product.

My laptop’s CPU would normally cross 95C and the GPU 88C. After cleaning out the old paste and applying this one, both the CPU and GPU stay under 85 most of the time! I don’t have proper benchmarks but there’s a noticeable performance boost!

It’s is a help to reduce the temperature, CPU and GPU in laptop and PC desktop and increase the performance and all device compatible for this product and this is the product is all-time best product. If you have use one time then at least minimum time required to replace the paste, around 38 months approx three years and this product really best, and it’s a helpful all device,

Purchased the product after checking various comparison reviews. there are not too many available and some are very old reviews.Found Noctua NT-H1 to be one of best though may not be THE Best. However the few that are better than this have too big a price difference for a very small change in performance or are not readily available in the market in India. Though not accurate I would say the comparisons found this at a relative score of 8.5 out of 10 approx. Following are the features as I noted or experienced while using the product:(Note: I own a HP DV7T early i7 from HP, And it used to heat up very badly and giving blue crash screens too often. Please also look at cleaning the fan and its ducts to see if that solves your problem first before using the thermal pastes. Also you may also think of installing a software that will show you the exact temp difference before and after the use of paste which I have not done.)1. It was non conducting to electricity (important as I know I would be very clumsy and make mistakes while applying)2. It was very well priced. and was also the best of the lot and also readily available on Amazon.3. It was easy to apply. (You can keep a dot of it on the surface and just press on the heat sink or you may also use a plastic card of some kind to spread it. It should not be too thick a layer as its only purpose is to remove air gaps and at the same time conduct heat.4. I could sense that it brought down the heat considerably (I however do not have a software to measure it before-after). (Note: cleaning of the fan and ducts also helped. But overall it removed my heat related errors and now allows me to use the laptop)

Best thermal paste every but it's expensive

I purchased this to change my stock thermal compound which has been making my system crazy hot, with nearly 100 degrees in temps and a constant at 99 degrees. Not a surprise my stock thermal compound was solid while I was changing it.Coming to the temp differences:- Before new paste constant 99-100 degrees- Drop in temps from 6-8 degrees- Max temp reached under stress is reduced from 100 to 95 degrees- Playing GTA is not frying my laptop.For the testing, I used Aida 64 and ran the test for 13min 10sec up or down and the above images are the before and after application benchmarks. All the components involved have been kept the same for both runs.I would highly recommend this compound if you are changing the stock thermals or for regular-use systems for high performance then go for a different one.
