I needed new thermal paste when upgrading the AMD processor in an older Dell Dimension system. I'd read that AS5 was considered a "high end" product, so I purchased a small quantity for this particular project. It seems to work well, but after "tinting" the heat sink and the CPU there was JUST enough material left for the final application. I'd suggest purchasing a larger quantity (> 3.5g) if a larger processor is involved and/or if more than one system is being upgraded. BTW, it apparently takes only about 8 hours - not 200 hours - for AS5 to become fully functional.

I have used a lot of different types and brands of thermal grease. This is by far one of the best. It really transfers the heat from the CPU to the installed cooler.

Ps4 fan was working overtime very loudly. Took off old thermal paste and apply cheap thermal paste and it continued to do the same thing after a day or two. Applied this Arctic Silver 5 and quiet as can be. Extremely impressed with this product cannot believe I went this long not using it. Worth every penny.

The quality of this Thermal Paste is extremely good for what I've ever used of it. Not only is it easy to apply but its properties of also being conductive helps a lot to. Just don't get any on your motherboard cause well ya know, bye bye motherboard. However, this stuff lasts for an incredibly long time and when I applied this thermal paste, it kept my GPU 20 degrees cooler over all, that's a HUGE margin. I would have anyone buy this Arctic Silver Thermal Compound for a replacement. It's really good. It's have my upvote in all aspects.

Was using another thermal proctuct until I purchased this paste about a year-and-a-half ago. And since then, I've been purchasing this product. It does exceptionally well. Keeps temps below 50°C on my i5-8600K on liquid cooled and about 60°C on my GTX1070 in my Alienware Aurora R7. This thermal paste is good stuff and recommended.

My computer had started to have shutdowns due to heat, core temps were regularly getting into 80'sC and went up to 100C! I went online and followed the instructions at the arctic silver website since it's been a loooong time since I've replaced thermal paste on my cpu. My desktop computer is now running great, with core temps of less than or equal to 55C as I'm typing this, and max of 78C. A little goes a long way, too, so I have plenty left over if I need more. Great stuff!
