Arctic Silver

Arctic Silver 5 thermal paste .12 oz

SKU CH-XT91-J7K7J

High-density silver-ceramic thermal compound for CPUs and heatsinks, .12 oz tube

  • High-density silver filling maximises heat transfer
  • Micronized particles fill microscopic gaps for stable contact
  • Optimised for modern high-power CPUs and heatsinks
  • Compatible with water-cooling solutions for versatile builds
  • RoHS compliant for environmentally responsible use

Premium Thermal Compound

Arctic Silver 5 is a high-density polysynthetic silver thermal grease formulated for modern high-power CPUs and performance heatsinks or water-cooling solutions. The compound uses micronized silver and enhanced ceramic particles to deliver reference-level thermal conductivity. It arrives in a 0.12 oz syringe and is RoHS compliant.

Enthusiast CPU Builders

This paste suits builders who need reliable thermal transfer for overclocked processors or sustained heavy workloads. Users seeking a non-conductive formula or a larger volume for multiple applications should consider alternatives. The material is optimized for thin bond lines rather than gap-filling tasks.

Sustained Load Stability

Under continuous operation the compound maintains consistent thermal resistance without pump-out or separation. The high-density filling resists drying and ensures stable temperatures across extended sessions. Performance remains predictable from the first cycle through long-term deployment.

Highlights

  • High-density silver filling maximises heat transfer
  • Micronized particles fill microscopic gaps for stable contact
  • Optimised for modern high-power CPUs and heatsinks
  • Compatible with water-cooling solutions for versatile builds
  • RoHS compliant for environmentally responsible use

Questions about this item

What CPU socket or cooler mounting hardware do I need before applying Arctic Silver 5?

Arctic Silver 5 is a thermal compound applied between any modern CPU and its heatsink or water block; you only need the correct mounting hardware for your specific socket and cooler.

Will Arctic Silver 5 work with an older heatsink that has a larger gap to the CPU?

Yes, the compound is optimized for a wide range of bond lines, so it remains effective even with the thicker gaps sometimes found on older coolers.

How can I confirm Arctic Silver 5 is performing correctly after installation?

Monitor CPU temperatures under load; they should be lower and more stable than with the previous paste, indicating the silver-filled compound is conducting heat efficiently.
