Legit Reviews posted a review on the Prolimatech PK2 & PK3 Nano Aluminum Thermal Compound
We are only as strong as our weakest link, this becomes apparent when we start looking at our Thermal Interfacing Material (TIM), or commonly referred to as thermal paste/compound, because the cooling efficiency of our computers is greatly determined on how well the heat that is produced from a computer component (Ex. CPU) gets transferred to our heat sinks (Ex. CPU cooler).Prolimatech PK2 & PK3 Nano Aluminum Thermal Compound Review
Prolimatech PK3 Volumes
When it comes time to choosing the right thermal paste/compound for our computer systems, we have a multitude of options that we can choose from. These choices range from the standard silicon based formula to the more elaborate silver based formulas, and just about everything in between. We also need to keep in mind that not all thermal pastes/compounds are created equal, some do very well while others fail miserably. So which brings us to how do we choose the right thermal paste for our computer systems. We can do one of three things to determine on what is the best thermal paste/compound for our computers: We can start purchasing various different types of thermal compounds and try each one out on our computer until we find one that best suits our computing needs, which will get rather costly and very time consuming. We can ask around in our favorite computer related forums for assistance, which will both help us and at the same time confuse us. To finally, we can start reading reviews of thermal paste/compounds at our favorite computer related review sites, for instance here at Legit Reviews. Or, we can do a combination of any of the above.
