I removed my original factory heatsink and fan and used this thermal compound in place of the factory stuff.
It made a big difference in the cooling of the processor.

I installed a new liquid cooling fan in my computer and needed thermal paste. All reviews online said to get a good one. I purchased this and have not had any issues.

I had to switch out 4 cpus. Plenty of compound in tube. Don't know if it will last, but still have compound left. Spreads easily, cleans up easily with isopropyl alcohol.

This product works great and comes in a plastic syringe and also a small piece of plastic to help to spread the product evenly. Product is a light grey in color. Good stuff.

I bought this for a one time use when upgrading my CPU. It functions as it should. Just wished they sold the paste in smaller sizes. It’s just sitting in my toolbox now.

My local best buy did not have the wide of a range of thermal compound as you could imagine so I chose the best looking one and it works great but I would prefer Arctic silver thermal paste.

I've overclocked many a CPU, and this was the first time I've used this thermal paste. I was putting an i7 quad in a tiny 12" laptop, using copper shims and this paste, I ended up with a beast of a portable machine with no overheating issues.
Nice to know I can run out to my local Best Buy and get some decent stuff for computers. Not many stores that carry this kind of stuff these days.

This thermal compound seems to work fairly well. I've used it on two CPUs and haven't had any overheating problems. Hasn't been that long in use (a couple of months), so I can't comment on longevity.

Not really much to say, it did the job it needed to do. I'm happy with the product and the fact I didn't have to buy online, it was in store.

This works great and allows my computer to run cooler by enabling the heat from my processor to more easily pass to the cooling fins.

This thermal paste works well. I think a name brand might be more effective, but I've had it on my CPU cooler for over a month with no meltdowns on my OC'd processor.

The thing I appreciated most was quite possibly that the output from the syringe is easy to control. I recently had an issue with the paste that was included with my CM CPU fan. With the CM paste, the plunger went from barely moving to what felt like almost negative resistance and drained the entire syringe in an instant. You know how hard it is to clean this stuff up? Not a problem with the Insignia syringe; consistent pressure on the plunger = consistent flow of compound.
