The most popular thermal paste of all time KPT-8 The most popular thermal paste of all time KPT-8

Hi all! I decided to expand the range of thermal paste at my retail outlets. The choice presented was small, these are KPT-8, KPT-19, GD900 and Arctic Cooling MX-4. I asked for price lists for ordering from suppliers and saw many other offers to expand the range. I may be wrong whether these are new thermal paste positions, but I have not seen them before. Perhaps they have been on sale for a long time at other points. But I decided to order for expansion, as I wanted.

When servicing office laptops and computers, I always use the GD900. I am very pleased with this thermal paste. I order a 30 gram jar on AliExpress, which lasts for a very long time. The price is about 350 rubles, you can order from a trusted seller on AliExpress here. Or you can buy it at any computer store, but it will be more expensive, but you won’t have to wait for the package to be delivered from China.

For gaming machines I use Arctic Cooling MX-4. This time-tested paste has never failed. But the price and volumes are no longer so affordable. I think that if you are not a computer technician, but an ordinary user who independently monitors and carries out maintenance on his equipment, then you can pay a little more and purchase this option. For 4 grams of MX-4, get ready to pay about 550 rubles, the same AliExpress site is full of options, you can order from a trusted seller here. There is an option to purchase at a regular computer store, but the price will be a little higher, but you won’t have to wait so long for the package to arrive from China.

I try to do without using KPT-8 thermal paste, as I believe that there are better quality options. Many will disagree with me, a large number of people still use it successfully. Here each person has his own choice. A year ago, I successfully used KPT-8 and didn’t need anything else, everything was fine. This paste is sold in almost any computer store; it is better not to order on AliExpress, as the price tag there is very high. I can’t understand what this price, course and delivery costs are connected with.

As for expanding the assortment of thermal paste at my retail outlets, I indiscriminately ordered various options from suppliers. I didn’t read reviews or study the characteristics, I just ordered from the list. I’ll put it up for sale, try to use it myself somewhere, and listen to what buyers say somewhere. If everyone is happy with everything, I will carry more options, and on the shelves KPT-8 and MX-4 will have to be moved, but not removed. According to sales statistics at points, KPT-8 is the leader, how can it be removed, regular customers will swear. Ordered: AlSil-3, Gembird FreON Special, Gembird FreON Ultra and Gembird FReeZzz. Anyone who has already used these pastes, please leave a comment regarding the quality of these products. As I understand it, the thermal paste market is expanding rapidly, there are a lot of different offers, and soon it will be difficult to navigate this choice. What is truly worthy of attention and what is not. I’ll leave a photo from the order and what it looks like. I still opened the packages and didn’t experience anything. When the opportunity presents itself, I will write short reviews.
