Review on 🌑️ Cooler Master HTK-002-U1 High Performance Thermal Paste by Marco Maurer

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Really innovative applicator method but poor quality control

I wanted to replace my Gelid GC Extreme paste and compare it to the new 2019 Mastergel Maker after hearing about it on different forums. I was very excited and looking forward to seeing if it was as good as advertised. I was very satisfied with the applicator, very good quality, with a smooth mechanism and wide enough to apply quickly on my processor (Ryzen 3700 and 3600). Unfortunately it all ends here. The first tube was dry and very flaky. I was expecting the first twist to be a bit dry, but the whole tube came out like a semi-dry putty and didn't spread. I contacted Amazon and as always they were fantastic and they sent a replacement the next day. I got it and unfortunately the second tube was just as painful. I tried heating it in a ziplock bag and warm water. no luck, not sure if it's a bad batch but for now I'm back to GC Exteme Paste.

Pros
  • Cool
Cons
  • No insurance
