I've used a variety of thermal pastes over the years, and Noctua NT-H1 continues to be one of the most dependable options for both personal builds and client repairs. The application is straightforward, no need to spread manually, and cleanup is just as simple, requiring only a dry paper towel. Performance-wise, it delivers excellent thermal conductivity. I’ve seen noticeable temperature drops compared to stock paste, especially on Ryzen and Intel CPUs paired with aftermarket air coolers. It’s also safe to use across a wide range of devices, including GPUs, consoles, and laptops, thanks to its non-conductive and non-corrosive formula. The 3.5g tube provides enough for multiple applications, roughly 15 to 20 depending on the CPU size, and the compound holds up well over time. Noctua recommends up to five years of usage on the CPU, and I’ve never had to reapply prematurely. For anyone looking for a high-quality, no-nonsense thermal paste that performs reliably and is easy to work with, NT-H1 is a solid choice. It’s not flashy, but it gets the job done right.

Works excellently, and very easy to apply! I have an i9 so heat is definitely on my mind, but just with the Noctua NH-D15S, this paste, and a little undervolting, I'm able to keep temps relatively low. I'm not regularly benching or anything, but with gaming/streaming, I hardly see temps get over 80C. Side note: I ended up returning mine because my CPU cooler actually came with this already bundled, so be sure to check that!

Bought a Noctua D15s a few years ago and used it multiple times on cpu upgrades and cooler changes. After I took the bottle out again to use on a new cooler I was out of it and didn't have enough. Ordered Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut. Read a few good reviews on that stuff and it was in a little tube like AS5 I used back in the AMD 955 days. I used that and it was watery out of the tube and felt cheap and meh. My temps were even high in games so I'm not sure if it was fake or not but I bought of from Amazon from the first seller there that has the letter O in it. Anyway. My temps immediately dropped 4-8c usiing this one. I feel like its better quality. It's a bit thicker so it's easier to dispense and keep it where you want it. The packaging is outstanding for such a small thing at a low cost. The packaging is probably worth half of the product and it's only $8 total lol. Super inexpensive. The cap has a nice female connector that twists and locks in place when you store it so it doesn't pop off when it's moved around or anything. Cooling a 5900x and doesn't see over 90c with a D15s and the EKWB 360 AIO Basic which I both tried this paste and that thermal grizzly kryonaut in the same temp room and the kryonaut paste made my temp hit 91c in occt+furmark testing. Immediately no from me. Now I stay under 85c. Coming from a 6700k I under seen over 65c so I'm not sure if this is a normal temp but reading reviews on this chip seems to be normal.
