What is thermal paste?

Thermal paste is a viscous or creamy substance applied to heat-generating components to fill the gaps between the component and the heat sink. This allows for better heat transfer and improves cooling performance. Thermal pastes come in different types and material compositions. For larger gaps or uneven surfaces, thermal pads are a suitable alternative.

What is thermal paste used for?

Especially in high-performance computers, significant heat energy is generated inside. This must be reliably dissipated using air cooling or water cooling, as otherwise sensitive components can suffer performance loss or even damage.

Even with careful assembly, small gaps usually remain between components. The air trapped inside acts as an insulator and prevents efficient heat transfer. Cooling performance may decrease, and particularly during overclocking, heat damage to the CPU, GPU, and other parts can occur quickly.

That’s why thermal paste is used: it fills even the tiniest gaps between components and, thanks to its excellent thermal conductivity, ensures optimal heat dissipation.

Which thermal paste is best?

In our shop, we offer a wide selection of high-quality thermal pastes for CPUs and other temperature-sensitive components. Products from brands such as Alphacool, Arctic Silver, or Thermal Grizzly differ mainly in material composition, which affects thermal conductivity and additional properties.

Liquid metal thermal paste

Liquid metal thermal paste is made from a gallium alloy and provides extremely high thermal conductivity. However, it is electrically conductive and must be applied carefully, making it more suitable for professional use.

Silicone-based thermal paste

Silicone-based thermal paste is the standard version of thermal compound. It offers limited thermal conductivity but is inexpensive and very easy to apply, making it ideal for beginners.

Ceramic thermal paste

Ceramic thermal paste typically contains zinc or aluminum oxide and offers solid thermal conductivity. Another advantage is that it is electrically non-conductive, preventing short circuits.

Metal-based thermal paste

Metal-based thermal paste often contains silver or copper particles, which makes it electrically conductive. It should therefore be used with caution to avoid short circuits. However, the thermal conductivity of metal-based thermal paste is excellent.

Important: Before you buy high-quality thermal paste from our shop, always read the product description carefully. There you will find detailed technical information and application notes to ensure you choose the right thermal paste for your needs.

How to apply thermal paste correctly

Even the best thermal paste can only perform properly if applied correctly. Regardless of whether you choose GPU thermal paste or CPU thermal paste, the application process is the same:

First, make sure to completely remove any residue of old thermal paste. Then apply a very thin layer of new paste. This is crucial, as too much paste can create an insulating layer and block heat transfer.

The products in our shop are designed for easy and clean application. They come with special applicators and accessories for hassle-free use. Discover our range now and buy the best thermal paste for easy application.

Common mistakes when applying thermal paste

If thermal paste is applied incorrectly, it cannot function as intended. This may cause performance throttling, overheating damage, or even short circuits. Common mistakes include:

Applying the thermal paste too thickly, causing it to insulate instead of conduct heat.
Failing to remove old thermal paste thoroughly. Old residues often lose their thermal conductivity and can trap air bubbles, reducing heat transfer.
Applying the thermal paste unevenly, leading to irregular cooling and temperature variations on the surface.
Incorrect use of electrically conductive paste, which can cause short circuits and severe damage.

When should you use thermal paste instead of thermal pads?

Thermal paste is commonly used for graphics cards and processors. It is ideal when a smooth, thin, and even application is sufficient to fill small gaps between components. For uneven or larger gaps, or when a clean application is not possible, thermal pads are a good alternative.
