High-volume thermal compound for system builders
This pack provides ten 12.0 gram tubes of Arctic Silver 5 for workshops or enthusiasts maintaining multiple systems. The compound is optimised for modern high-power CPUs and contains 99.9 percent pure silver particles to maximise thermal transfer. Each tube covers 50 to 55 small CPU cores or 20 to 25 large CPU cores, supporting large-scale deployment. The formula is not electrically conductive, eliminating short-circuit risk during application.
Syringe dispensing with long-term stability
Each syringe allows precise placement on small CPU cores, large CPU cores or heat plates without specialised tools. The grease uses over 88 percent thermally conductive filler by weight for improved performance and long-term stability. It is engineered to resist separation, running, migration or bleeding over the full operating range. Particle size remains below 0.49 micron to ensure consistent particle-to-particle contact across the interface.
Wide temperature range with measurable gains
The compound operates reliably from minus 50 to 130 Celsius long term and withstands peaks beyond 180 Celsius. Testing with a calibrated thermal diode embedded in the CPU core shows 3 to 12 degrees Celsius lower full-load core temperatures versus standard compounds or pads. Thermal conductance exceeds 350,000 W/m2°C at a 0.001 inch layer, while thermal resistance is rated at 180 °C. These figures translate into cooler, quieter operation under sustained loads.
