Halnziye HY-2610 High Performance Thermal Putty 100G

About this item

Thermal pads of the wrong thickness can leave memory chips running hot after you reassemble a graphics card or laptop. Halnziye HY-2610 high performance thermal putty is listed here in a 100g size. It suits PC tinkerers who would rather press a compound into a gap than measure pads.

Is thermal putty a good replacement for thermal pads?

Putty conforms to uneven heights, which helps where you don't know the right pad thickness. The title doesn't list a thermal conductivity rating, so check the description for any figures the seller provides.

• Container: look at the photos to see how the 100g is packaged.
• Application: plan on gloves and a spatula, and ask whether any tools are included.
• Where to use it: common spots are GPU VRAM, VRMs and laptop components.
• Cleanup: keep isopropyl alcohol on hand to remove old material.

Before you buy, read any seller notes on storage or shelf life.
