IT workers are well aware of the importance of prevention and diagnostics of computer technology. It is the annual maintenance and proper operation that will guarantee the long-term operation of the computer and office equipment. One of the important conditions is compliance with temperature conditions. Ordinary users believe that the presence of coolers is everything, but this is not the case.
The system unit contains components that are exposed to very high temperatures during prolonged load. The video card chip or the processor on the motherboard can heat up to 100 ° C, causing it to melt and fail. Thermal pastes are used to create correct and efficient heat dissipation.
We have compiled a list of the best thermal pastes based on expert opinions and reviews from real customers. Our recommendations will help you make the best choice for your requirements and desires. There are many competitors on the world market for equipment, but we have selected the best manufacturers and recommend that you pay special attention to them:

Thermal conductivity: up to 6 W (m * K)
The main advantages
- The paste is resistant to extreme temperatures from -40 to + 150 ° C. Despite the average thermal conductivity, it can be used in any computer equipment of the entry and intermediate level
- Thermal paste is supplied in a special syringe, which greatly simplifies the process of applying the consistency to the processor or video card chip
- The mass of the paste can be applied in a thin, uniform layer. Due to the physical features, the formation of air cushions between the heat exchanger and the heating source is excluded
- Minimum thermal resistance significantly increases efficiency, thereby reducing the processor's operating temperature by several degrees
- The syringe contains 3.5 g of the mixture. This volume is guaranteed to be enough for all heating elements with active or passive heat removal

Thermal conductivity: up to 6 W (m * K)
The main advantages
- The manufacturer guarantees that during operation the thermal paste retains its properties and does not dry out from constant thermal stress
- The structure of the paste is quite heavy and viscous, therefore, during the application process it retains its shape and does not spread to the surrounding areas of the board
- The chemical composition of the thermal paste is completely inert, which means it will not react with copper or aluminum surfaces
- The ointment is safe for humans, non-toxic and non-corrosive. You can work without gloves and special masks
- Thermal paste effectively copes with thermal loads in the range from -30 to + 100 ° C. Ideal for office laptops and PCs of all sizes

Thermal conductivity: up to 6 W (m * K)
The main advantages
- The paste has a homogeneous mass without grains and other foreign inclusions. Apply effortlessly for an even layer without air
- The guaranteed service life is 6 months. The product is easy to remove, leaves no residue and does not "stick" to the chip surface
- The composition does not have flammable substances, therefore, the risk of ignition is completely excluded, even at high temperatures
- The manufacturing technology of the product is simple, therefore it is easily mastered by domestic manufacturers. The price for this product is much less than foreign analogues
- The ointment is supplied in a tube that greatly simplifies the process of applying the contents to the heated element

Thermal conductivity: up to 6 W (m * K)
The main advantages
- The kit comes with detailed instructions with pictures showing the correct application of the product to the processor
- Has an average viscosity. This prevents the thermal grease from spreading outside the plate and simplifies distribution over the entire area.
- The syringe is equipped with a rubber stopper that protects the contents from drying out. The packaging will reliably preserve the heat interface for a long period of time
- The maximum temperature at which the paste does not lose its qualities is in the range from -50 to + 150 ° C
- Thermal conductivity is 1.13 W / mK, which is quite enough for standard office processors

Thermal conductivity: over 6 W (m * K)
The main advantages
- The structure of the paste is elastic, which greatly simplifies installation. For installation, it is enough to apply one large drop in the middle of the heat sink and press down on top of the radiator
- Thermal paste ensures high performance from the very beginning of use. The product does not require additional heating or shrinkage
- The mixture does not contain solvents and other toxic substances harmful to humans and PC elements
- The composition contains components that prevent premature drying of the product. Unique technology helps to use the mixture for several years
- The ointment is fully compatible with all metals. Suitable for servicing laptops and gaming grade PCs
- Thermal paste is recommended for use with both air and water (including liquid nitrogen) cooled

Thermal conductivity: over 6 W (m * K)
The main advantages
- The ointment is supplied in a special syringe with a reusable cap, which is securely packed with plastic wrap to prevent leakage during transport
- The kit includes a reusable spatula that helps to apply an even and thin layer on the heat transfer plate of the heat source
- The paste has shown good wear resistance at high temperatures. The ointment retains its physical properties even at + 150 ° C
- The thermal interface is accompanied by instructions in Russian and English, which explains in detail the process of replacing thermal paste.
- The ointment layer also plays the role of protecting the pads from oxide or corrosion. This is especially important when using computer technology in high humidity conditions.
