Review: Alphacool Thermal paste linup

0

Conclusion:

We’ve come to the end of this test. With its Apex and Rise, Alphacool offers an interesting new range of thermal pastes. Where the Apex is very effective on CPUs but not very suitable for GPUs, we have the Rise to adapt to all situations. Subzero is very effective on GPUs thanks to its fluidity. As for Silver, we can’t recommend it given its composition, which can be dangerous for certain components, and its very poor performance.

As a reminder, these thermal pastes are available at €8.98 and €15.98 for the Rise and Apex models in 4g. And €14.98 and €12.98 for the Silver and Subzero models in 30g and 3.5g
