Thermal Paste & Compounds (7)

Thermal Compounds

The majority of computer users won’t need to trouble themselves about thermal compounds. However, anyone with an interest in high-performance gaming rigs, overclocking and building systems from scratch should be familiar with these highly conductive thermal pastes. Ebuyer offers compounds from a wide range of trusted cooling brands to help you get the most out of your system safely.

Cutting Down On Excess Heat

Usually arriving in syringe-like tubes, thermal compounds are used to form a conductive bond between components. The most commonly bonded components are CPUs, which can emit a great deal of heat when a system is pushed to its limits, and heatsinks, which help to draw away waste thermal energy so it can be dissipated by a fan.

Users are recommended to use only a tiny amount of thermal paste as any more than a rice-sized blob could leak onto the motherboard when the compound is heated. Contrary to popular belief, a pea-sized amount is considered too much, so use caution when applying.

At Ebuyer, we stock a wide range of thermal compounds suitable for both business and personal use. Find your thermal compound using the filters on the left of the screen. Don’t forget that with Ebuyer you always get fast delivery and low prices.
