Extreme Performace Thermal Paste?

[Lew123]

There’s 3 different thermal pastes I can choose from one being extreme performance. Does it matter in the end?

Care to let us know which 3 exact thermal pastes you are looking at?

It would really help to know the 3 pastes you can choose from.

The 3 different “levels” of Corsair thermal paste. I can’t recall the names in particular.

in THAT instance, it doesn't matter:  They're all pretty much fuck-off terrible.

 

Buy real thermal paste from Noctua, Arctic, or Thermal Grizzly.

Is there really that much of a difference? I bough the Extreme Performance Corsair stuff already. Not currently applied though.

if you already have it, i would just use it. corsair paste isn't bad, it's just more expensive than products that are better, at least in my experience. why ask after buying it?

I would just let my friend use it instead. Always looking for new, better options is all.

i usually like grizzly kryonaut(favorite), or mx-5(mx-6 now i think).

Thermalright TF7 is what they give away with their coolers, but it’s actually really good stuff.  I usually use SYY-157 because it’s cheap and also very good. TFX is probably my favourite.

in reality?  A few C.  Nothing huge.

But Arctic is 1/3 the price, and better than Corsair's "Extreme".  Hell, Noctua and Kryonaut are cheaper!  (If your product costs more than Noctua?  Ya doin something WRONG!)

Yeah lol. I’m just one of those dummies that sees the price and assumes the quality meets it..
