Thermal GrizzlyKryonaut Extreme - 2 Gram - Extremly High Performance Thermal Paste - for Maximum Thermal Conductivity While Overclocking CPU/GPU/PS4/PS5/Xbox

If your looking for thermal paste thats the best of the best you’ve found the product your looking for. The viscosity of the paste is rather thick, however it comes with a spreader to make using it easier. The heat transfer helps keep my PC running cool. I would recommend to anyone looking for a high quality thermal paste.

This easily dropped temps 10 almost 20 C under load. I was so skeptical and I thought I would just be wasted my money but I am a believer. This stuff works!

Now First, I have to say that I am pleasantly surprised and very satisfied with the results of this Thermal Grizzly Extreme Thermal Paste. In this review I will not be comparing Apples to Apples exactly, but what I will share is what I have seen and learned about cooling a CPU two ways in terms of the contact material between the CPU and the CPU Cooling Block.If you are considering trying a Thermal Pad vs Thermal Paste: Please ReadSo my Base test is a Ryzen 9 3900X (not OC'd) cooled using a Cooler Master MasterLiquid ML360P AIO and an IC Cooling Graphite Thermal Pad. Here is the IC Cooling Thermal Pad: https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B08BL3SCWH/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_EYAN2WXM5GZ0Q1VVTDXK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1Now with this setup I idled around 42 - 46 C and Under Full Load maxed out at around 84 - 86 C. So Now to the Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme. Here I upgraded my Ryzen 9 CPU to the Ryzen 9 5900X. Now both the Ryzen 3900X and the Ryzen 5900X have the same TDP of 105W but I understand they are different CPU's. However, with the Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme Thermal paste on the 5900X (Not OC'd) with the Same Cooler Master ML360P AIO I achieved 39 - 42 C at idle and 74 -76 Under Load! Huge Difference!Application is a tad trickier than "traditional" thermal paste or the non Extreme version of the Grizzly Kryonaut Thermal Paste, but should not stop anyone who has applied other thermal paste to CPU's before. With this Thermal Paste it is "stickier" than the many others I have used and pink, but not impossible to spread across the CPU. It sort of cakes up once spread initially after it has left the syringe. So use one of the 2 supplied Spreading Heads attached to the syringe and simply start towards one side of the CPU and slowly depress the syringe and move the spreader until the entire CPU Lid is covered in as thin of a layer of Paste as you can apply (it IS NOT Conductive). The included Manual showed how to apply it and I simply looked it the directions first and applied it without issues.Value for the money depends on how you think in terms of costs associated with building high end rigs. Some parts just cost a lot. Here the amount of Thermal Paste in that Syringe is good for 2, TOPS, CPU Installs. They could have given you a little more than they did. But hey it works Great and for $20 something Bucks, my CPU is MUCH cooler than with a Thermal Pad so I am happy.My Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme Thermal Paste was Verified Authentic on Thermal Grizzly's Site for Authentication Verification. Mine was sold by DS-Distribution. No Issues.

Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme, Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad 8, the list goes on and on and each time, it's certified authentic via Thermal Grizzly website. Onyx PC is my definitive trusted source for authentic pc maintenance merch and should be yours too if you don't want headaches. Always authentic, always delivered quickly and always a great experience! I love buying from Onyx PC! Sorry, but they deserve a shoutout with the current imposter merchandise landscape.Now onto the review.Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme in most consumer use case or general overclocking scenarios performs marginally better than standard Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut such as air cooling, AIO or even custom loops, but read on.Although my temperatures did reduce by roughly 1°-2° Celsius at idle or under 100% stress test load in comparison to standard Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut which might appear to insubstantial to some, what isn't insubstantial is how quickly it was able to dissipate heat overall no matter the load, before, during and after the fact. It's quite efficient!I'll explain why this matters to even the average user. Although I tend to heavily overclock my systems, so it's an obvious benefit for me to utilize extremely high end thermal compounds, in many ways, it's just as beneficial for a standard user.In terms of gaming, you will maintain a higher average core clock speed on the CPU and GPU, because of how efficient Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme dissipates heats. Think of it this way....When in a usual gaming scenario, you're not constantly involved using the maximum 3D clock speeds, no matter the game. In this day and age, Nvidia GPU clock speeds are variable unless you force voltage. So, that being said, throughout your gaming session, you're in the in game menus, options menus, pre-game lobbies etc. When this happens, the graphics card automatically lowers the variable clock speed.In this scenario, when this occurs, there's a shocking amount of heat that gets dissipated using Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme. This is where Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme is worth every penny. Your GPU and CPU clock speed averages will be substantially higher, because of how effective it is as heat dissipation.Although I utilize Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme in my overclocked gaming desktop, where I was most impressed was when I applied this to my sons CPU/GPU within his Asus TUF 15F 3060 gaming laptop. His overall temperatures were reduced dramatically (+- 12° Celsius difference) and his average core clock speeds went up by +- 15%. So it's quite clear that if you're using this in more extreme thermal conditions where efficient thermal dissipation is key to performance, it's going to perform extremely well.If you're an advanced overclocker like myself, it's a no brainer and I surely don't have to explain to you why using this will serve you well, but for the average user I felt that explanation was important, as they might not fully understand why high end thermal compounds are beneficial to them.

This paste is super sticky and last a long time, it came with a spatula which I recommend you use. Extremely good heat transfer as you would expect from a great product, easy to install with spatula and zero noise level. This stuff is super thick and makes for great cpu cooling paste for use with AIO or fan, highly recommend.

Quality & performance of this paste are superb. I had MX4 in my Asus RTX 3080ti TUF fans running 88%(Core 72, Hotspot 84,Mem 88).After applying this, GPU temps under 100% load,same fan speed, while playing RE4 Remake, OW2, Cyberpunk 2077, dropped by 9 degrees(Core 63,Hotspot 76, Mem 80)Only negative point is the high price for only 2 Grams which is practically 2 maybe 3 applications.

The product is great at keeping temperatures cool, and is definitely top-tier. However, i am giving a 4 star due to the hard application when trying to use the spread method. It is very thick and likes to stick to itself rather than having a nice flow of thermal grease. A great alternative to this that doesn't subtract from this high-tier quality would be Kingpin Cooling as it was easier for me to apply and the cooling aspect was very similar in performance
