About the product
Antec's Formula 7 thermal compound protects your CPU even when your rig is running on all cylinders. Since little of the CPU's surface actually touches the heat sink, you need a solution that isolates and facilitates the transfer of heat.

What customers say about "Key Specs"
Antec Formula 7 Nano Diamond Thermal Compound
  • This provides good thermal transfer.
  • This stuff is great. Excellent cooling.
  • Good price, fast shipping, worked good.
  • It works just fine. Cap stays on well after first application.
  • It keeps a low temp on the cpu, works better than most thermal pastes in the market.
ARCTIC MX-4 Thermal Paste
  • This stuff has excellent thermal conductivity and lasts much longer than other pastes!
  • Extremely efficient heat transfer and is non-conductive.
  • Easy to apply with very good heat conductivity.
  • More easier to apply due to lower viscosity and gives good results without having to wait for it set.
  • I used the supplied paste and the temps were great, never going over 76C with all cores at 4.1GHz.
