I applied this thermal paste on the Intel i7-12700H in my laptop. It performed really well for a bit, then its performance dropped considerably within one month, with the laptop running warmer during normal usage and heating up very quickly when put under load.

I have never used good thermal paste in my life. Only 3.5 W/m-K or even 1.5 W/m-K depending on where I look. I was having trouble cooling my 14700KF on my Noctua NH-D14 with that paste where I couldn't put more than 100w of load through it but now that I have moved over to this paste with 10.5 W/m-K I can put 180W of load through without cresting running into problems

My initial thoughts were that it is a very thick paste compared to what I was used to and the included spreader was doing nearly nothing so I had to use the mounting pressure to spread the paste out. That is the only reason why it is getting 4 and not 5 starts. I guess it might be better at resisting push-out but I can't test that

It came with a spatula/spreader, an alcohol cleaning pad and the thermal paste

R70 for 2g of paste is great value

Haven't seen more than 60C since application on my AMD 5600 using a Deep Cool Gammaxx 200T.

It is very thick and tends to pull itself along when you try to spread it, but I can't fault the performance at this price.

Works perfectly on an 13600KF

so I've used different branded thermal paste before and the high quality thermal grizzly and cooler master master gel is pretty much in the same ball park when it comes to temps, the paste is a bit thick and not easy to spread which is why its a 4 out of 5 stars for me but for the temps its really good , 35c idle 60c gaming 75c stress test, i am not sure if there is a burn in period as i cant seem to find reviews for this but for the R70 price range for 2g and 10.5 W/m-K you cant ask for more
