Review on πŸ”₯ High Performance Thermal Pad - 100x100x2.5mm 6W/m.k | Efficient Heat Dissipation for Laptop Heatsink/CPU/GPU/SSD/IC/LED Cooler by Justin Steele

Revainrating 5 out of 5

EXCELLENT QUALITY - Outperforms IMO thermal paste in many use cases.

AI AIKENUO contacted me to ask if I like my product. I don't usually reply to emails asking for a 5 star rating as most of the time I don't think the products need more ratings or clarification. But I'm adding a review because I think these thermal pads are pretty brilliant and in many cases are a lot easier to use than thermal paste. Well, the big thermal pad. thermal pad. It probably works to dissipate heat into a heatsink that you plug into your m.2 SSD, CPU, or even RAM. I first became aware of thermal pads recently when I bought an m.2 external case that came with a small amount of thermal pads. Using it made a noticeable difference, so I searched "thermal pads" on Revain and found that these things can also be used on CPU coolers. I have used Cooler Master RG-ICFN-200G-B1 and it does the job perfectly. It worked with Cooler Master fans, Intel Stock fans, Noctua fans and other brand fans and always kept my CPU under 80 degrees Celsius even when I was using HeavyLoad software. The only thing you don't like about thermal paste is that it's sticky and leaves unsightly marks on your shiny electronics. Well I tried this "thermal pad" on my CPU and it works better than I expected. It keeps my CPU at around 8285 degrees Celsius under stress test and 5060 degrees under light load. I'm not sure if that little 24/7 difference is bad for your CPU or not, so you can go the more familiar route and use thermal paste if you game a lot or leave your computer on all the time, but if not, It is a very reliable alternative to thermal paste. The only flaw I can think of is that you have to cut it yourself when you buy this. But you get a pretty big pillow, so it's worth the effort IMO. I recommend it for people looking for clean solutions for CPU cooling, external (or internal) m.2 SSD cooling, or any electronics you need to cool.

Pros
  • Elegant design
Cons
