    Used this to replace the paste on my processor and i have immediately noticed a drop in cooling temp, probably 10 degrees at least. would def recommend for helping to reduce the temp on air or water cooled setups, worth the extra money

    I tried the paste for a day and was not impressed. The paste was runny, so i wasted some and then applied the second attempt. I thought that the paste would need a spreader, but instead it needed toilet paper.

    I got this kit because I thought I would need it for building my new computer, but the new heatsink came with some paste. I will hold onto this kit, though, if only because of the template included that I can use for future builds.

    Average Experience

    Not sure if I got a bad batch, but my temps were acceptable at best. Not good especially with my AIO cooler from Corsair. My idle temps on my Ryzen 5950X was around 45 C. The moment I switched to Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, I hit 36-37. When I asked around if my temps were fine at 45 C, I got a general consensus it was fine. But coming from an i9 9900K, I felt like it should be at least similar in temps. Since it wasn't as good as the other guys I had to knock off a star considering the competition did a little better. And the last star docked was the stencil for the application. Definitely bias towards Intel which made using the stencil on AMD Ryzen a little more challenging. I would have preferred to have an AMD stencil included as well. So overall, pretty average experience I'd say. Between the mild cooling capabilities, and stencil issues, I would say it's a C+
