GC-Extreme 1g

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.

So where do I begin 🤔 well first, let's look at the pics. They speak louder than words in this situation. When my custom gaming pc was built in 2019 I had idle temps in the mid 50's to low 60's. While gaming mid 70's. Well here in 2024, My pc started have major heat 🥵 🔥 spikes and just crash than shut down. As a gamer we all know that frustrating 😤 upsetting feeling all to well. I couldn't figure out what was going on. Thought I had a mobo going out, sensor issues, false reading from my software, outdated drivers. I mean, I was rocking my brain over what? What's going on with my PC? Which has never done that before. So I got on the internet like most PC owners do on Reddit. Googling everything trying to find out what this possibly is. Surely someone else has experienced the same, but much to my surprise. I couldn't find an answer. I even went as far as texting youtuber Techs to find out what could possibly be wrong with my pc, but with no response. All I kept getting on my google serched was,Make sure your fans are clean. Maybe ur fans when out, Make sure you're fans are facing the correct position for the intake and out take of your directional fans, Maybe it's your motherboard or GPU issues, check settings that you've previously done before the incident happened. Make sure your BIOS is updated. I mean,at this point you could imagine how fustrated I have become. I was so surprised there was no answers nowhere to be found to my problem. Well, I decided I'm going to tear my pc down and I'm going to re-thereal my CPU and my GPU. So with that in mind, I was on the next lookout for thermal paste. And I mean some good thermal paste. Because after all, this was my last resort. So after watching countless videos reading countless Reddit accounts on the best thermal paste out there on the market for hot temp CPU/GPUs that has a cooling agent that will cool your CPU to keep it at better temps. And I kept getting the same brand over and over again The Arctic 4. And for some reason, something told me. Don't go with that brand don't know why, but I kept looking,. so I continued to watch, Continue to read. And I found 1 video out of hundreds of videos that I have watched and found a thermal paste GC- EXTREME. And it was proven to be the best decision I made as far as my pc care. For me to have gotten such major results in the cooling side and proformance of my CPU and GPU, I was completely and utterly shocked. As you can tell in the pictures above my temperatures I was getting before I thermaled it and after I thermaled it. Even a video. And also I posted a picture of my results with the temperature only in the 40's after gaming for 2 1/2 hour run straight. So then I decided to do a major game night and I gamed for 12 hours straight and my temperatures only got to the 50s and this is no joke. This was so mind-blowing. I don't know how to feel about this one decision that changed my thought process on how vital it is to find the best thermal paste. In this vital situation popularity thermal paste has nothing to do with what is the most important. And it's only a brand name. I wanted something to actually work and achieve my expectations. Not something that was popular. Which would save you in the long run on expensive massive even in some cases, unnecessary cooling fans for your CPU. It is completely mind-blowing because ryzen as we all know runs crazy hot temperatures. And that's what I have is a full AMD pc build. So I will definitely say that if you build a pc. Or if you're just looking to redo your thermal paste, This should be your number 1 thought and anything that you do with your pc as far as pasting or you're just building PC this thermal paste will blow your mind. That is no joke. And I don't know why there is not many videos on this paste. Because this paste to me from my experience is mind blowing. I used Noctua paste In my first build and I thought that was good until I got a hold of this one. Don't get me wrong here, Noctua is amazing pc fan company which I have in my build, But this paste is amazing and I would not steer anybody wrong with a bad product. So with that being said, the pictures and videos speak louder than words. Take a look at the proof on how drastic the changes were. It's insane. If anything comes out of this review, I hope and pray that it helps someone who is looking for authentic genuine review on this product.

Ich habe diese paste seit Jahren im Einsatz und sie brachte mein Notebook von 84°C auf unter 70°C bei Volllast, ohne dass der Lüfter je verdreckt war. Die Masse ist etwas Zäh aber gut verteilbar und funktioniert schon 5 Jahre ohne Qualitätseinbußen. Ich empfehle die CPU/GPU zuerst mit alkohol reinigen und dann hauchdünn mit einer Checkkarte auftragen, sodass man die Schrift darunter gerade noch erkennen kann. Die Dose reicht für 10-20 Anwendungen und damit kann man auch nichts kaputt machen.

Despues de probar marcas buscando una buena, esta me ha sorprendido, bajandole esos graditos extras a la cpu

Thermal paste is of good quality for its low price. After cleaning heatsink and applying this thermal paste, my CPU & GPU temps dropped to 75-80°C on heavy gaming where as earlier it used to exceed 90°C and made my laptop lag a lot. Paste lasted 1 year before needing to be applied again. The spatula provided made it easy to apply too. Highly recommended for normal laptops & budget gaming laptops.

Pasta termica davvero efficace: nel mio caso dopo averla applicata la temperatura del chip è scesa un po' ma si è alzata di qualche grado quella della scheda madre, dei componenti che gli stanno vicino e dell'interno del PC in generale. Questo perché il dissipatore non riusciva a trasferire all'esterno il maggior calore "trasportato" dalla CPU al metallo. Dopo aver migliorato la ventilazione interna però la temperatura della CPU (rilevata con Speccy) è scesa di ben 13 gradi in totale ed anche quella di tutti gli altri componenti è scesa parecchio! Per chi come me non aveva un sistema di raffreddamento/areazione adeguato la consiglio quindi in abbinamento ad un buon dissipatore e/o ventole interne ed esterne, ed ovviamente una bella pulizia approfondita sia del chip su cui andrete ad applicare la pasta, sia delle varie ventole, radiatori e prese d'aria. Per ora l'ho usata su due CPU e una GPU e mi pare ce ne sia ancora (la siringa è coperta da un adesivo perciò non si vede quanta ne rimane). Aggiornerò la recensione dopo averla terminata. Per l'applicazione, nella maggior parte dei chip basta metterne una goccia (più o meno abbondante, dipende dalla superficie) al centro e riavvitare il dissipatore o ventola con cautela, così che sia la pressione ad espanderla su tutta l'area.
