GELID Solutions GC-Extreme 1gr with tooling - Thermal Conductive Paste for Heatsink | Maximum Thermal Conductivity | Easy application | 8.5W/mK

Great item. Fast delivery. Well packaged. Highly recommended. 100% good One of the best thermal paste I’ve used

Great product but very expensive. But if you want the best, you have to pay more.

no difference at all

I've used this to repaste a Dell G5 SE (AMD), it takes a quick google to see that this gaming laptop runs *hot* and this helps a lot with that, around 5-10 degrees difference in heat and although this isn't much the performance overhead is much improved. The clocks hit their maximums on turbo boost within the previous thermals where it would normally have throttled (before repasting it would barely get above 2.8GHZ and now hits 3.9-4.1GHZ when under load. AC Odyssey has a 5FPS average improvement on the benchmark from just repasting. The 1g should be enough to repaste a CPU and GPU (on a laptop) 3 times before you run out. I have plenty left and will use it again in 6 months to a year when it dries out (80+ Temps are not your friend). I did not use the supplied spreader tool and used a line method of applying the paste as laptop heatsinks don't apply as much pressure as desktops. I haven't removed it again yet to see how well the die was covered but will report back if I remember.

Second time i have ordered now. Absolutely brilliant paste nice temps in idle and underload. I would not personally recommend spreading it with the spreader i find the usual pea/grain of rice blobs worked just fine however you are free to do as you please.

Laptop started getting noisy high fan speed and the odd blue screen, I have applied this thermal paste and I'm using the laptop now it quiet and faster since the temps have reduced a fair bit now. Burn in test worked no errors and I'm back on the laptop as if it was new :)

For your CPU this is a first class option, easy to apply, little risk of pump out and great thermal results. For a GPU die, however, where the paste needs to be spread thin, it’s difficult. The paste is very thick like putty and the included spatula does very little to spread it thin; I found using a finger was by far the most effective way to spread it out over the GPU die. Temps have dropped on the 7800XT though, so can’t complain.

Easy enough to apply/spread and great performance from this paste.
