Best Thermal Mediums

[Colin094]

Hello, first time posting here. I was wondering what in your opinion is tue best thermal pads, paste, and Liquid Metal for Pc use. From what I found most companies like thermal grizzly make all these claims but don’t actually give the numbers or even have their product be sold by any retailers

You can buy their stuff from Amazon and lots of other places. They do give numbers (e.g. 12.5 W/mK for Kryonaut), but as with any claims made by manufacturers, look at independent reviews instead. In the end you'll likely find it makes very little difference in many cases, unless you're extreme overclocking and need the absolute best.

yee, thats where ive been looking and from claims from thermal grizzly minus pad extreme should be the best thermal pad "260% more thermally conductive than minus pad 8" which would make extreme have a conductivity of 20.8W/mk which just sounds too high to be true
