About this item
- A convenient syringe makes this Liquid Metal very easy to apply and goes exactly where it should be: on the CPU Cooler, GPU Cooling or heat dissipation rib plates
- Thanks to long tests, Conductonaut has a very high thermal conductivity and excellent stability even with prolonged use. Due to its composition, it cannot be applied to aluminum components as it will cause corrosion.
- A popular choice for very experienced PC builders because of its extreme heat dissipation, but also because it conducts electricity!
- This thermal solution is compatible not only with computer parts or laptops, but also with consoles: PS3, 4, 5, Xbox 360, One, Series S and X; Great for dissipating heat from Macbooks
- Conductonaut Must not be used in conjunction with aluminum as it can permanently damage the surface and can be used directly on copper or silicon.

Special mixture of metals
Conductonaut by Thermal Grizzly is a high thermal conductivity liquid metal thermal compound made from a unique mixture of metals such as tin, gallium, and indium. For optimal long-term stability and performance, it is recommended to use Conductonaut on nickel-plated surfaces.
Great compatibility
Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut is a highly effective thermal compound that can be used with both air and water cooling systems. It is best suited for temperatures ranging from 10°C to 140°C. This liquid metal compound is ideal for applications that require very high thermal conductivity. Unlike conventional thermal greases, Conductonaut can compensate for even the smallest irregularities.
IMPORTANT WARNING!
To ensure optimal long-term performance, it is not recommended to use Conductonaut thermal grease with aluminum heatsinks, as it is a liquid metal compound that can leave visible residue. Additionally, using Conductonaut with aluminum components can increase the risk of corrosion. We advise using coolers with a nickel-plated surface instead.
Storage
Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut should be stored boxed and under dry conditions at room temperature.

1) AMD Rx 6000 series reference coolers
if you, like me, were unfortunate enough to think that replacing the carbon thermal pad the GPU core comes with out of the factory with ordinary paste would help, then this is a solid solution to the absurd temperature problems you’re probably dealing with right now. Seriously, I went from 87C edge 115C juntion temp on my Rx 6800 with Kryonaut paste to maxing out in the mid 80’C on junction temp after using LM - and that’s with a vastly higher power limit to boot.
2) Very high thermal density chips
if you have a component that outputs a LOT of heat in a very small area then it can be very hard to adequately transfer that heat away. LM can help woth this over regular paste. A good example would be something like a delidded Ryzen 7 5800x. A chip like this would benefit from liquid metal, although unless delidded the IHS will prove to be a limiting factor.
3) Very high power consumption
I have an RTX 2080 ti that pulls up to 850w when under load. Paste works, but goodness me does it sometimes struggle when power consumption stays high instead of spiking. LM helps a lot here.
For pretty much every other possible use case it’s simply not worth it. Although more thermally conductive than paste, don’t be fooled by the w/mk figure on various paste. The way this is calculated makes it extremely manipulatable, and in fact Thermal Grizzly has made statements about this. They themselves manipulate this number on their products, although in fairness to them all of their competitors do too, so at least they’re honest about it. Aside from that, there are some pretty serious downsides too:
1) Electrically conductive
if this stuff gets on running SMDs then you can say goodbye to whatever that component the SMD is on.
2) Corrosive
LM alloys contains lots of gallium, which will eat away at some metals, notably alluminum and tin. what this means is that if you use this on an alluminum cooler, the gallium will alloy itself to the cooler and destroy the structure of the cooler. Not great. Also, if a little bit lands on a PCB and manages to not short something out, you can bet money that it’ll eat its way through a solder joint and once again, bye bye component.
3) Staining
This will stain copper and nickle. Not a deal breaker, just ugly. Also, copper in particular is a pain to clean off, as the LM will bond to it leaving small bumps. These can be scraped off, but it’s time consuming and not much fun.
4) Expensive
This is probably the most obvious one. If you don’t need LM for your usecase, you can spend less money and probably get more paste at the same time. Personally I’m partial to Thermal Grizzly Aeronaut, but just about any well known paste will do you just fine. I believe many of Noctua’s pastes are usually quite well priced.
In conclusion, if you know you need LM then you probably already know all of this and are going to get it anyway. If you don’t, then you should probably just get some Kryonaut or whatever and call it a day.
After with undervolt may just touch 95C then settles at high 80s and GPU still mid 80s.
Great results on CPU and I've very happy that my CPU isn't thermal throttling and can operate at full frequency/power. Would probably not use on GPU again, stick with paste.
Long story:
My MSI GS65 9SE, [9750H and RTX2060] would constantly thermal throttle the CPU at 95C during tests and games, even with max fans. Undervolted by -.145mvolts, and still throttled, but was able to gain a couple hundred megahertz. I repasted with Noctua NT-H1, but with undervolt was worse than before. I believe this wasn't the pastes fault, but perhaps my torque sequence was off, and had poor pressure. Paste had been fairly well spread.
Decided something had to be done to get the temps inline, 95C was not acceptable. So ordered Conductonaut after watching many videos on use and results. Have to admit that the fear factor on this stuff out in the media is a little off putting, but I came to believe that it seems to be more hysteria than the result of it being that dangerous.
I used high temp electrical tape to surround the dies on the CPU and GPU. This seemed like a better approach than using conformal coating. The application to the dies was pretty easy, but being my first time using it, judging the correct amount was a bit hard. I went with just enough to leave a liquid coat, that you could see just a slight flow of liquid, and was opaque over the die.
However applying to the copper heat sinks was a different story. The copper appears to bond to parts of the thermal paste, causing it to dry out during application. As I understand it the copper can absorb liquid metal to a degree. So I made multiple applications to the heat sink to build up a coating, which in the end was lighter and thinner than that applied to the dies.
Once I had it back together I was quite happy. With the undervolt it would not thermal throttle and would settle around 86-89C. With Intel XTU the benchmark rose 20 points. Cinebench R20 gained about 200-300pts. The CPU was able to hold the boost frequency, 4.1mhz, for the entire boost time then settle and hold 3.8mhz. The GPU really saw no appreciable change, and I would no recommend using LM over a thermal paste for the GPU.
Conductonaut has made it possible for me to fix the one major flaw of the GS65, thermals.

Lo consiglio a tutti ma state attenti perché il metallo liquido conduce l'elettricità: acquistate del nastro isolante liquido resistente alle alte temperature e isolate i componenti elettronici accanto al die di CPU/GPU. In questo modo, se il metallo liquido dovesse fuoriuscire dal die, non rischiate un cortocircuito. Ultimo suggerimento, applicatene una quantità davvero minima, sia sul die che sulla placca dell'heatpipe. Il prodotto si spande facilmente e ne basta uno strato minimo.
Consigliatissimo.
La temperatura es impresionante, 90°C con una pasta térmica de alta calidad y el procesador al máximo, ahora no sube de 68°C. Eso sí, los primeros cinco minutos me asusté ya que en reposo no bajaba de 45°C y era bastante más de lo que tenía antes, ahora en reposo no sube de 33°C.
