IgorsLAB: Thermalright TF8 EX Thermal Paste Review

I don’t like doing things like this and I’m issuing a warning, but shortage management should not lead to customers being misled. That’s why I’m really disappointed with Thermalright and the latest TF8 EX. Thermalright used to stand for above-average performance at acceptable prices, but the new paste is the exact opposite. In terms of thermal properties, the original Thermalright TF8 was currently one of the best you could buy at a reasonable price, but it’s now almost impossible to find. With its 5W/(m-K) at the time, it even came close to established industrial pastes such as the DOWSIL TC-5888 or DOWSIL TC-5550. And now?

Hardware Busters: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti: 300 W TDP & Same Die With the RTX 5080

While the RTX 4070 Ti and the RTX 4080 used different GPUs (AD104 and AD103, respectively), their successors have the same to lower the production cost. The 16% more CURA cores will bring a performance advantage over the RTX 4070 Ti, but this model also has a super variant. The RAM will likely be at 16GB with a 256-bit interface, while the RTX 5080 will have 24GB.
