![]() A repaste is recommended after ~1 year for maximum effectiveness. The effectiveness of liquid metal based TIM is shorter than Gelid GC Extreme, but is often worth it to achieve optimal system temperatures. We recommend Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut for heavy CPU usage (intensive gaming sessions, heavy CPU based rendering). Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut Liquid Metal - Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut – 73.0 W/mK Thermal Conductivity, Electrically Conductive, Up to 10C drop in system temperatures (sometimes more if manufacturer did a poor TIM application at the factory), Effective for 9-12 months. We recommend Gelid GC Extreme for light to medium duty usage and for those who want to perform as little maintenance as possible. Gelid GC Extreme - 8.5 W/mK Thermal Conductivity, Non-Electrically Conductive, Up to 5C drop in system temperatures (sometimes more if manufacturer did a poor TIM application at the factory), Effective for 1-2 years. ![]() ![]() There are benefits and advantages to both. ![]() HIDevolution offers both non-conductive (traditional thermal "paste") and conductive (liquid metal) thermal interface materials (TIM) to achieve lower system temperatures than stock.
