Very poor
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It cools ok but nothing more . Its pain in the neck to apply this paste . It gets hard as soon as you push it out of the tube . I was looking forward to try this paste and boy am i disappointed . I bought double pack and i have 1 full and most of the second tube left . Sorry Corsair but i have to say no to this . To be honest , i tried a little bit out of the second tube to make sure that is not only one tube bad . Nope , they were the same .

Posted .Hi Hector1908,
If the thermal paste is difficult to apply, you can place the tube in a cup of warm water to help loosen it's consistency for easier application. If you'd like assistance with installation and application, please feel free to reach out to our support team, we'd be happy to help you out: support.corsair.com

Wish i could rate worse
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.corsairs thermal paste is not good it doesn't like to spread at all even with the included spreader. the keeper is garbage and far to thin to be of any practical use. even the keep out zone area is too small to fit all current processor manufactures ihs. for the price vs just the tube it should have included one for Ryzen and one for intel. Hell for the price it should have included some actual thermal paste too but I guess that's asking for too much.

Careful
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this from Best Buy so I could replace the Xbox 360 thermal paste that was dry. Unfortunately this thermal paste I bought from Best Buy was also dry. Be careful on the thermal paste you buy because it affects the health of any technical device

No paste included
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.No actual thermal paste in the box. Had a nice plastic piece to smear the paste and a nice sticker. Just an empty slot in the plastic container where obviously the paste syringe would be. Box was sealed. Figured it was not added at the factory.
