Best ever TIM
by JonI used this between my Corsair H100 AIO water cooler and an i5 4690K. It's overclocked to 4.5GHZ and was previously using Arctic Silver 5. I read some great reviews about this Kryonaut and decided to give it a go to bring my temps down a few degrees when testing using Intel Burn Test and small FFT's in Prime 95. I was blown away with the results... Previously my max temps were 81 degrees after a few hours CPU stress testing. Using this Kryonaut and applying it with the 'credit card' method instead of a blob in the middle of the CPU, my max temps were 71 degrees! That is a truly amazing 10 degree drop in temps. It may be a combination of the thermal paste and applying it on the CPU with a different method. I held the syringe in my hand for 5 mins or so to make it a little easier to apply using one of the 2 adaptors supplied and simply painted it on as thin as possible. Works a treat. I did seem to use a little more than I thought I should, but the results speak volumes. I certainly applied a lot more than I would using the size of a grain of rice in the middle of the CPU.This stuff is simply the business and will work well on my laptop CPU's, as apparently metal based thermal paste like AS5 shouldn't be applied to aluminium heat sinks, as they degrade the aluminium.Use this paste... you won't be disappointed with the results and worth the extra wonga
