are these two kryonauts the same?

Go to solution Solved by Mephi00,

Its just different tubes

hey guys, been meaning to repaste my laptop that i recently bought with some better thermal paste; mainly looking at kryonaut as it's apparently the best (do leave recommendations otherwise).

 

but i've been looking online and it seems like there are two different packaging styles. 

 

(1)

(2)

TG-K-0001-RS-th2.jpg

 

looking around youtube, i see that most people are using tube (2).

is there a difference between the two in terms of cooling performance?

or are they the same compound but just in different and updated tubes.

 

would love some help on this, thanks!

i've googled a little bit more and have asked around some online sellers.

they said that the compound is the same, but the tubes reflect different weights.

 

the smaller tube (1) is for 1g and the longer black tube (2) is for 5/5.5g

Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut is the worst Thermal Paste I've ever used! Starts out great for the first 3-4 days then you'll see the temps start rising slowly each day to a point where your machine becomes unusable.

The best non-metal thermal paste is Phobya NanoGrease Extreme  and the best Liquid Metal is Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut.

i got myself a tube and replaced my previous generic paste with the new Kryonaut.

been getting some improvements, obviously.

went down from 50c idle to around 35c with an additional 10mv undervolt; totalling 110mv undervolt.

seems good so far, just as you've described.

i think im on day 4 right now.

 

i'll be sure to check up with temps and performance to see if there are any degradation as you've described.

Fair enough.

 

 

Just did a test on my Alienware Area-51m playing Battlefield V for 20 mins. see: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/official-alienware-area-51m-owners-lounge.826831/page-1275#post-10922743
