ARCTIC TP-3: Premium Performance Thermal Pad, 100 x 100 x 1.5 mm (Stackable to 2.0 mm Without Performance Loss), 1 Piece - High Performance, Particularly Soft, Ideal Gap Filler, Bridging Gaps

Replaced the worn/degraded stock thermal pads on my M.2 SSDs in my gaming rig with this 1.5mm ARCTIC TP-3 (stacked a bit where needed to hit ~2.0mm gaps). Big improvement: CrystalDiskInfo shows significantly lower temps now—worth the swap if your SSDs were running hot/throttling. Tips for sizing/cutting: Measure your gaps precisely (calipers help), then cut with a sharp tool like an #11 scalpel or model knife for clean edges. The 100x100mm sheet left plenty of leftovers for me, so small mistakes weren't a big deal—I only tossed one tiny messed-up piece. It's thick but compresses exactly as the compression chart on Arctic's site promises. Not super "sticky" like some pads, but has a nice tacky/moist feel that makes positioning on the SSD easy—no sliding around. Arctic's website support is excellent if you need extra guidance (charts, manuals, etc.). Highly recommend for anyone refreshing SSD/VRM/RAM pads—performs great without the hassle.

Bought to repaste a MSI 3080 x trio lhr 12g. 1mm is for the vram chips around the GPU die. Absolutely phenomenal. Not only are they cheaper but the definitely make better contact vs the gelid kit which is actually almost double if not double the price. They also ran slightly cooler. Memory pre re-pad and paste was at 94-97c/ fans 65%. Gelid kit memory max that i saw was 85 at 65% and the arctics was staying at 83 but max of 84 at 65%. Reason for removing the gelids is because i didn't feel like they were making sufficient contact just by eyeing it but i could be wrong. But for half the price and in my opinion better contact and 2c less i would definitely go with arctic!

So far so good on this putty. Replaced my OEM putty on first-gen PS5 along with fixing the massive APU dry spot (separate review). The factory putty was pretty dry. This ARCTIC putty was easy to use and seems like good quality. I recommend the 1.5mm version. Sony doesn’t really give a way to measure CPU temperature, but it seems to run normally just fine for hours.

Worked great on the memory chips in my PS4 pro. The fan doesn't work as hard and the system runs cooler overall. I just cut the squares to the size of the chips, peeled the back off, stuck it to the chips then peeled off the blue film to ensure maximum contact with the metal plate.

I have been working on Nintendo Wiis for a long time and there has been a debate about how to do the thermals. Some say use paste, others say use another pad, others want to go with phase change material. The truth of the matter is that it's built for pads. Thermal grizzly is nice but the pads don't stack well. You will need about 1.2mm of thickness to fill the gap. Enter this pad. These are nice and they are rather high performance for the price. They are easy to use. Just trim what you need. Peel one side off. Plant it down. Then peel the other side off. The pad will expand a bit. Then plant your heatsink down and go. Yea, it's that easy. For what the Wii is this pad is kinda overkill but it's one of the few pads on the market that you can stack up to 2mm without any issues. It transfers heat very well and it's soft enough to fill any gaps. My Wii's not working itself to death anymore and it has since developed a large silence to it. If you need a pad that's thick without a loss of performance this is the pad for you.

Never an issue, always just works is intended.

Great value for what it is. Stuck well to the heat sync on the motherboard.

Good thicker pad. Used to replace the thermal pads on an old Wii unit. Everything works great! Sticky enough to stay on whatever surface you lay it down on but not so sticky it sticks to your hands.

Die Wärmeleitpads waren sauber und sicher verpackt, alles kam unbeschädigt und ordentlich an. Die Qualität macht einen sehr guten Eindruck, das Material ist sauber verarbeitet und lässt sich gut zuschneiden. Sie sitzen ordentlich, und erfüllen ihren Zweck zuverlässig. Auch der Preis ist für die gebotene Leistung absolut fair. Insgesamt ein solides und empfehlenswertes Produkt.

Thermalpads de calidad, muy bueno si te hace falta cambiarlos en la ram o la tarjeta grafica.

Arctic har aldrig svikit mig förr och denna är inget undantag, grafikkortet (RTX2080) behövde nya och har fått nytt liv igen!

最近のMBに付いているM.2用ヒートシンクパッドと同じくらいの厚みです。
