Heyy wassup? guys! I am having a one year old laptop and I want to buy a cooling thermal compound paste also called TIM for both CPU and GPU.
As I can see in charts Thermal Compound Roundup - February 2012 | Hardware Secrets
Best options are arctic silver 5, antech formula 5/7 and DeepCool Z5.
I am avoiding arctic silver 5 for its corrosive nature and antech is not available in the online market. I liked Deepcool Z5 3.0g because of its cooling performance and easy availability.
So guys tell me should I buy it or not? Is there any problem in this product. Here is the review Deep Cool Z3, Z5, and Z9 Review | Skinnee Labs
