How to choose thermal paste products, a series of thermal paste on the market is dazzling, time-consuming to choose, and may not be able to choose a good product.

At present, the main role of the thermal paste is to reduce the small gaps and irregularities of the cooler, the surface and the integrated heat sink of the CPU, which is built into the metal sheet on the top of the processor.

A good thermal paste can have a long-term impact on your performance, during long-term use, the normal to keep the waste heat in the radiator transferred to the cooler, thus keeping the processor cool to run.

If the equipment you are using is overclocked to a large extent, it is also important to choose a good thermal paste, which can make the CPU use reach a slightly higher CPU overclocking.

At present, the heat transfer paste on the market is mainly known as: thermal conductivity compounds, thermal silicone grease, thermal interface materials, heat dissipation silicone grease and so on. Most pastes consist of ceramic or metal materials suspended in proprietary adhesives that are easy to apply and spread and simple to clean up.

　　Thermal paste has conductive and non-conductive two different performance, the main difference is their formula, which conductive thermal paste can transmit current between two points, it should be noted that the product in use do not get on other components, otherwise it may damage the motherboard and CPU in use. A single drop can cause a PC to crash, so extra care must be taken.

　　Liquid metal compounds are almost always conductive, so although these materials have very good properties in use, they should be more careful. In contrast, conventional thermal paste compounds are non-conductive for most.
