Your cart is empty.Contains 99.9% pure silver: Arctic Silver 5 uses three unique shapes and sizes of pure silver particles to maximize particle-to-particle contact area and thermal transfer.Not Electrically Conductive: Arctic Silver 5 was formulated to conduct heat, not electricity. (While much safer than electrically conductive silver and copper greases, Arctic Silver 5 should be kept away from electrical traces, pins, and leads. While it is not electrically conductive, the compound is very slightly capacitive and could potentially cause problems if it bridges two close-proximity electrical paths.)Absolute Stability: Arctic Silver 5 will not separate, run, migrate, or bleed.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: The 3.5 gram tube 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.Important Reminder: Due to the unique shape and sizes of the particles in Arctic Silver 5's conductive matrix, it will take a up to 200 hours and several thermal cycles to achieve maximum particle to particle thermal conduction and for the heatsink to CPU interface to reach maximum conductivity. On systems measuring actual internal core temperatures via the CPU's internal diode, the measured temperature will often drop 2C to 5C over this "break-in" period. This break-in will occur during the normal use of the computer as long as the computer is turned off from time to time and the interface is allowed to cool to room temperature. Once the break-in is complete, the computer can be left on if desired.

I'm not a thermal paste expect by any means but the is my go-to for decent thermals. It's short tubes but they put a lot in them. It can be a bit of an effort to get the paste to come out. Technic over brute force. Slowly squeeze the tube over a piece of paper until it starts to come out.

One of the most reliable thermal paste I've used. Easy to use and it lasts a long time.

Arctic Silver 5 Thermal Compound is like magic for your computer. It helps keep your CPU cool by filling in tiny gaps between the processor and the heat sink. This means your computer stays cooler and runs faster, which is great for gaming or heavy-duty tasks. Plus, it's easy to apply and lasts a long time, so you don't have to worry about it wearing off. If you want to keep your computer running smoothly, Arctic Silver 5 is the way to go!

Been my "go to" thermal paste for over 10 years. Great results.Easy to install and manipulate, can be conserved in a fridge for many many years!

Aproveche la oferta de 2x1 y la verdad es que estoy muy satisfecho con el producto, lo ocupe en un XBOX ONE X que sufria de sobre calentamiento y lo soluciono, tan solo me basto una gota de este producto para dejarlo como nuevo, sin duda habra mejores productos pero por relación calidad precio este va muy bien. El envio llego muy bien protegido por desgracia el producto solo llego en una bolsa transparente sin empaque original, eso si el producto esta rotulado con la marca.En conclusión si estas dudando en comprarlo hazlo con toda confianza, este producto es de calidad y no te decepcionará, si hacer overcloking habria que revisar versiones alternativas aunque estoy seguro que incluso esta pasta haria bien su trabajo.

I have used Arctic Silver products since about 2002. I have been through the interations from Arctic Silver (no number), 2, 3, 5 over the years. If you want your processor to run at the lowest possible temperatures (given Heatsink and air circulation limitations), Arctic Silver is the best by far.Heat is the great destroyer of computer components (HD, CPU, Memory, etc). Anything that reduces heat will greatly increase the longevity of the components. Adequate air flow should be the first consideration but when it comes time to transfer heat from you CPU to that airflow, the thermal compound (Arctic Silver 5) is phenomenal in that heat transfer from the CPU to the Heatsink/Fan and then into the airflow.Over the years, I have learned that less is better. The thinnest continuous layer (without air gaps) of Arctic Silver applied to the CPU surface provides the highest level of performance with regard to heat transfer. It can take a little time, effort, and practice to achieve that superthin layer but the results are astounding. I have tried thermal compounds from other suppliers and none come close to the superior performance that Arctic silver exhibits hour after hour, day after day, and year after year. As long as you do not disturb the heatsink relative to the CPU, you should not need to reapply thermal compound because of age.Arctic Silver 5 is just great stuff!

This stuff works well and has been widely recommended for years. It is reasonably priced and you get a lot in this two pack - enough to last many applications. Make sure you follow tutorials on how and how much to apply. It does apparently have a break-in period before it reaches peak performance which I noticed myself. I've seen reports that offers better performance (were talking a degree C or two) and if I'd known that I would've just used the compound that came with my cooler.

Simply the best thermal grease on the market. Laptop running beautifully cool again and so too my desktops graphics card. Great value in this Pack size as well, but remember a little goes a long, long way!
