Gelid Solutions GC-Extreme 3.5g with Tooling - Thermal Conductive Paste for Heatsink | um Thermal Conductivity | Easy Application | Not Corrosive.

Tried various thermal paste for my laptop and each and every one failed miserably.Gelid is quite thick and it works wonders for every laptop,pc and whatever u use it on.From thermal throttling to normal temp,the difference was stark.It is very longetive for years.Totally value of money and perhaps the best one i ever used

This is the first thermal paste which I have bought. I applied it on my laptop Asus TUF 505DT which was been on the stock thermal paste for the past 3 years. The results were surprising. 30-40fps boost in games, GPU temp is around 60C and CPU is around 60-65 on idle. When playing games 5-10C rise only. I think this is one of the best thermal paste for laptops.

I used GC extreme because it was recommend to me and I'm thankful that i did. I used to hit TJ-Max on both my CPU and GPU as soon as i started playing RDR2 on my laptop. (With AC on at 25/26 degrees)I finally changed it's stock thermal paste after 3 months of use. Even though i don't play much, my stock thermal paste was almost dried out on GPU and CPU.Pros-1. Very reasonably priced.2. Works flawlessly3. Non-Conductive4. Much much better than stock thermal paste or the generic thermal paste these companies apply to our laptop in the name of "service".5. Heavy games like RDR2 are showing temps under 85 degree Celsius without undervolting/disabling turbo boost, which was not the case for me previously on the stock thermal paste. Idle temp was around 30-40. I'm personally very satisfied. (with AC on at around 26 degree Celsius)Neutral-1. Bit difficult to apply but good thermal pastes are generally thick and they are not easy to apply. I have also not done it before so, Kinda new experience for me.ConsNone as of day 1.Things to note-1. This is a day one review. Will edit it in the future as the need arises.2. If you want to have a rough idea about the temps (like really rough) use Hwinfo app and monitor idle/gaming temps. If you Want a better idea run Antutu, 3Dmark and other benchmark tests before and after applying this thermal paste.If someone is not willing to change the thermal paste themselves (which is fine) ask your laptop service guy to apply this thermal paste (buy it yourself), if the service guy is hesitant tell him that this is non-Conductive thermal paste (it won't damage the motherboard even if some of it spills on to the motherboard).

Good thermal paste

This is great for laptops. It has high viscosity. And it comes in good quantity for the price compared to other options.Earlier i got my paste replaced at a repair center and they used cryofuze violet. Within three months my laptop was severely throttling and i saw many frame drops even after reducing quality settings. Read a lot of reviews and suggestions about high performance paste for laptops and how they are not suitable, about pump out effect, dry out etc. This has lower conductivity at around 7 while violet has over 12. However, that doesn't matter when the paste just spills over. This is much more viscous (and harder to apply and spread but manageable). After application I have noticed significant temperature drop in idle. Although my laptop still throttles under load, that's because of the bad cooling design of asus TUF a15 (2020).

The paste was purchased and applied on 1st of May, and this is on 9th of May. I had to remove it since i saw the temperatures getting a bit high. It was doing fine, well below 80 during the initial days of pasting. I don't know if this is pump out or if the temperature rise is due to bad pasting method (Ignore the mess on sides :-)). So this is most probably NOT for gaming or high end video editing. If this is really not pump out that's seen in the pictures, my apologies. (For experimenters, maybe try thermal hydronaut. Apart from that the product packaging and the delivery were excellent from both amazon and sellers side. Overall Good for normal desktop use as temperatures did go down for normal use.Edit: Temperatures are rising to levels higher than stock thermal pastes. Apparently re-pasting doesn't work with laptops?

It's best thermal paste I have tested and in this price it's the best thermal paste you can get. I tried on legion 5 pro I wasn't able to get ptm 7950 that's y and surprisingly with a cooling pad I didn't ran into thermal throttling issue easily on balance my laptop GPU goes around 75 in performance it goes around 84 and these are with cooling pad andon CPU it balance it goes around 85 and in performance it hit 101 but it's not surprising considering ryzen 5000 series have 105 Max temp limit and 101 it's the bracket set by amd and if I turn off the boost then CPU sticks to around 80-85 over all its best and i dont think I will pump out in a year you should go for it.

I have been using kryonaut for the past 2 years because it was the best, till I realised that it isn't suitable for 80c+ temperature and dries out fairly quickly.Under full load of cinebench r23 with ryzen 5 5600h 60watts the temps never crossed 90c which is a big win!EDIT:After a week of using it the temperatures are significantly higher, 90c with 45 watts of power, it's the same as every other mediocre paste out there.I have tried almost every paste, the best ones were kryonaut but it usually lasted 2-3 months before it dried. This paste is good if you don't want to repaste for like a year or so.Next thing to try is conductonaut.
