kahless Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Hi, I bought one of the new H115i 280mm Platinum coolers that were just released. Set to deliver Thursday. Its going onto a new 9900K / Maximus XI Code build. I have a new tube of Thernal Grizzly Krynonaut. Should I clean the Corsair paste off and use the Thermal Grizzly in place for better performance?

DevBiker Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 You certainly can. You may see a couple of degrees of difference but it won't be a whole lot. Take a look at this: https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/thermal-paste-comparison,5108-8.html - you'll see that the range isn't that large. I'd also, personally, recommend using the "lentil method" rather than trying to apply the Kryonaut according to the instructions (with the little painter-thing). I didn't have much like with that - it looked like a kindergartner's finger painting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
