Available in various application quantities and complete with application tools, Polartherm products are ideal for both single-use projects, and larger-scale system integrations.
Why Thermal Paste Matters?
Thermal paste, also known as Thermal Interface Material or short “TIM”, is a heat-conductive material. These materials, such as thermal paste, thermal pads, or liquid metal, play a critical role in transferring heat, primarily from processor (CPU) and graphics card (GPU) to your cooler, preventing overheating and maximizing performance. Other components like memory and storage devices such as SSDs also benefit from good cooling. Without a high-quality thermal paste, heat transfer is less effective, leading to potential system instability or reduced lifespan of components.
Thermal paste is made from a base material like silicone oil and contains microscopic particles such as aluminum oxide or zinc oxide. It is applied, for example, to the heat spreader (IHS) of the CPU before the cooler is mounted. The paste fills microscopic gaps between the surfaces of the IHS and cooler to effectively transfer heat.
Choosing the Right Thermal Paste
The most important criteria for selecting a thermal paste are its thermal conductivity and viscosity.
Viscosity refers to how thick or fluid a substance is under pressure. Water has a low viscosity and is very fluid, while toothpaste has a high viscosity. Low-viscosity thermal pastes are easy to apply, while high-viscosity pastes require a bit more effort.
The thermal conductivity of a paste depends on both the ingredients and the size of the particles. Smaller particles fill the gaps better than larger ones.
Why Polartherm?
Polartherm thermal pastes are an affordable and high quality alternative to the pastes often included with budget CPU coolers. In contrast to many low-performing stock thermal pastes typically included with cheaper coolers, Polartherm thermal pastes offer good conductivity and viscosity resulting in easy application, long-lasting durability and pump-out effect resistance even in demanding conditions.
Using low-performing thermal paste can reduce the cooler’s effectiveness, especially since manufacturing savings in budget coolers can result in larger microscopic gaps on the contact surface with the heat spreader. This is why using a high-quality thermal paste, particularly for budget coolers, is so important.
