* Thermal Paste *
When looking for the best thermal paste for a laptop or computer, it is important to consider the composition of the thermal paste. High quality professional pastes often contain effective compounds such as carbon, graphite, metal oxides and metal particles that act as heat conductors. In addition, you should choose a paste with good viscosity values, which allows you to evenly distribute a thin layer of material on the surface of the processor. Choosing a top brand that specializes in thermal paste ensures that you get efficient performance when applying thermal paste.
Properly applied thermal paste can reduce temperatures by up to 20%. In addition, modern compositions are very stable over time, but at the same time provide efficient heat transfer from the processor core. Careful application is important to ensure proper volume, as too little can significantly reduce thermal performance.
* Liquid metal *
Liquid metal, due to its higher thermal conductivity and larger contact area, can provide a more efficient thermal interface than standard thermal paste. But, liquid metal can make poor contact with some metal surfaces, such as aluminum, if applied incorrectly or in excessive amounts; this can lead to sub-optimal cooling performance. Thus, liquid metal should only be used on copper-based heatsinks. Thermal paste is generally easier to apply than liquid metal and offers a lower level of performance, but is much less dangerous if handled incorrectly. As such, I recommend checking out the liquid metal application guidelines before using it.
