Lives up to its name. [UPDATED: Good for laptops too]
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.

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

Great for laptop CPU
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.

High quality
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!

Best product
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,

Great temps for a regular use system.
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.

Best thermal paste every but it's expensive

Great Product worth its price
Its been a few weeks since i used noctua thermal paste, it was recommended by my brother and this thing is dope guys. I have predator helios 300 and its been over 1.5 years since i bought it. This was the first time its thermal paste was changed and it improved the performance by good amount earlier on normal usage my temps would be 60-65 C and above 80 C during gaming, if there was some heavy load then temps would even reach 95-98 C. After applying thermal paste temps have improved a lot now its stay 38-45 on normal usage and stays around 70 during gaming even during heavy load temps are around 82 average, there are sometimes spikes in temps but happens rarely. Its a great product for its price.Its important to know how to apply the paste properly. Don't use too much of it as it will just go to waste and not even work properly. You just need to apply a small amount that just enough that it covers the cpu and gpu completely when you put the heat sink back on. There are many guides on youtube, look for one that shows changing for your laptop model.Pea drop and line method are best depending upon the shape of component i.e. if its square or rectangle. Don't spread it yourself chances are you might leave an air bubble which is not good, just apply the paste and then put the heat sink on gently, after which just leave it for 20-30 minutes. Don't remove heatsink again to check the spread. Oh an important that i almost forgot before applying new paste properly remove older one from cpu/ gpu and also the heatsink.
