Product Description

IC Graphite Thermal Pad is a permanent thermal interface alternative to thermal paste for CPU’s, GPU’s and Game stations. This product features top tier thermal performance that is uniquely stable across a wide temperature range -200C to +400C and, when used long term, should last the life of most electronic components.

IC Graphite is 100% pure graphite and non-toxic. This pad is a solid-state modular solution, with no messy applications to clean, no guessing if you have used the proper amount, just place pad and mount sink.

Troubleshooting Tip - The key to great performance is that fundamental to all thermal interface materials, whether it is a thermal compound or thermal pad, all require good contact and pressure to realize full performance. Thermal performance in this regard can be affected by several degrees, so as you would with thermal paste, be mindful of good contact and pressure for optimum performance.

Caution: IC Graphite is electrically conductive! Any contact with electrical components when the computer is turned on can permanently damage the components. Please ensure that the system is turned off during the application process and that no stray pieces are contacting any components before powering on the system.

Customers are mixed about the heat of the heat sink. Some mention that it puts out great temperatures, runs plenty cool, and dramatically reduces heat on CPU's and GPU's. However, others say that the heat is just so concentrated on the die that it removes. It's not better on cooling than paste, and the thermal resistance is a function of contact pressure.

CPU: Ryzen 9 3900XTCooler: NZXT X63 KrakenI at first tried with the stock thermal paste that came on the AIO (I went through 2 different coolers by this point because of the issues I was having with temps, found out now, it wasn't the cooler!!)... so I was not happy with the temps... I switched to using Mastergel Maker (not a cheap paste) and was not happy with the results I was getting. Temperatures were fluctuating oddly, I thought maybe something was wrong with my CPU, or bad mount, cooler sucked? (this happened both with stock paste and Mastergel Maker and can say it did make a LITTLE bit of a difference, not by much)... so I did some testing and tried different methods of applying the thermal paste and different mounting pressures... was almost running out of the paste, so I ordered this thermal pad.I have now had this thermal pad (40mm X 40mm) on for 2 days. I have done some testing... shared a picture, the max temp is after a Cinebench R20 benchmark.. 57.6c!!!! What??? Roughly around 32c at "idle" with multiple programs running in the background including.... Steam, a couple Google Chrome windows open (including this one currently while typing and another with a YouTube video running), Discord, ROG GPU Tweak II, NZXT CAM, Open Hardware Monitor, and on 3 different monitors at once, all programs with hardware acceleration off (so not using GPU to render said programs) I have also seen lower, around 27c with all programs closed, could go lower I'm sure of it with the fans on my radiator turned up, just no reason to. I am happy with 32c with all of these programs running. I am sure if I turned on hardware acceleration, it would be even lower temps because it would move the grunt of the load over to the GPU. (Yes I know even with hardware acceleration off, it still uses SOME GPU, but is mostly software rendered, which is using the CPU)Lol... okay this is way to long... long story short. DO IT. Don't listen to the haters, this is a legit review. These results are real. I was so worried about my new PC build until now. I thought I was doing something wrong. This thermal pad is amazing.Also, have not tested with 2 yet... might still do that... but have no reason to honestly! I am VERY satisfied with the results. Oh and also, I ordered on the 23rd, got it on the 26th. That is pretty fast. I also ordered late at night, so maybe it could have got here quicker?I saw some of the reviews with messed up thermal pads. I can say, mine arrived perfectly fine. No damage at all. I ordered the 2-pack 40mm X 40mm... MAKE SURE YOU GET THE SIZE FOR YOUR CPU!! Ryzen 3000 series NEEDS 40mm X 40mm. It does hang over a little 1mm-2mm maybe? (VERY LITTLE and you could trim it if you are going to be a perfectionist, I usually am, but I didn't trim it) the 30x30 will be too small... and yes it does slide around on you, but be patient and just make sure it stays in place. Do check, because it could short something out. With my motherboard, I'm really not worried about it as there aren't really any components near the socket, and it stayed in place for me pretty easily, the pad became a little concave, so I flipped it so the curvature was pointing up, as if it is hugging the CPU. Anyways, just wanted to leave a legit review with true experience.Totally worth it. Very satisfied. Okay, I'm done. Good luck fellow gamers and creators!! This is what you were looking for, I promise. OH, and yes I am overclocking, obviously from the screen shot.
