Thermal Paste HELP

[Mahbub]

so i originally planned to get the  kryonaut.. but in my place its nowhere avaibable... and importing it is a major hassle.. the best i can get here is deepcool z9.. so i want to know how much is deepcool z9 compared to kryonaut.. is the deepcool z9 good?

Deepcool Z9 works, but in Tom's Hardware's testing, it performed around 7C worse than Kryonaut on a GPU application. IC Diamond 7 would be better at around 3C worse than Kryonaut.

 

If you can get IC Diamond 24, IC Diamond 7, Cooler Master MasterGel Maker Micro, Gelid GC Extreme or Kingpincooling KPx, those would be better than Deepcool Z9 (though Kingpin's paste is quite expensive IIRC)

also how is noctua nt h1.. that seems to be available here

[Mahbub]

i am from india.. and in my particular place noctua nt h1 seems to be the best paste available.. how is it? how worse is it compared to kryonaut and ic diamond?

[porina]

It is a decent paste, just use it and don't worry about differences between it and the "best" ones. For normal use it doesn't matter. Note they also include it with Noctua coolers.

It's good and hard to go wrong with. 

 

Please don't make multiple threads about the same discussion -- threads merged.

In my own testing I get about similar perfomance with noctua nt-h1.. about 1-4 degrees in difference at most (was very hard to spot) Get noctua its also spreads nicely with just a small blob in the middle.
