Need better thermal paste

This cooler is a trigger cooler for the price. It wasn't the most complicated cooler I've ever installed, but certainly not the easiest either. The supplied thermal paste was of poor quality. If you want this cooler invest in a good brand of thermal paste. The plate and pipes were quite uneven so some extra paste might be needed and also make sure to manually spread the thermal paste all over the CPU as the unevenness of the radiator plate will prevent you from spreading it evenly. Once I have the correct connection, the cooler seems to work fine. In closing I would like to say that I like the cooler and for the way I run my system it works fine but if you plan to overclock and run at a higher than stock voltage you should consider another option in To consider.

Pros
  • Good for many
Cons
  • Some trouble
