Maxtor CTG 9EL 2.0 g syringe

This Maxtor Thermal CTG 9EL compound is a 2.0 g syringe of high-conductivity paste rated at 13.5 W/mK. It targets PC builders and overclockers who need reliable heat transfer between a CPU or GPU die and its cooler. The material stays stable from -50 °C to 250 °C, so it suits sustained high-load sessions. No electrical conductivity is claimed, so standard non-conductive handling applies.

Application method and spread consistency

The supplier outlines a four-step process: clean the surface, place a dab at the centre, spread with a scraper to roughly the thickness of an A4 sheet, then mount the cooler. This technique aims to give a uniform thin layer that minimises air gaps without excess paste squeezing onto the PCB. The paste is described as non-volatile, meaning it resists drying out and maintains its consistency over long periods. No applicator tool or spare wipes are mentioned in the bundle.

Capacity and thermal headroom

At 2.0 g the syringe covers several standard desktop CPU applications or a single large GPU die with margin left for rework. The 13.5 W/mK rating provides headroom for high-TDP processors and moderate overclocking, while the 250 °C upper limit exceeds typical junction temperatures. Builders running extreme sub-ambient cooling or multi-die server chips may find the volume insufficient for repeated reapplications.

Questions about this item

Will the 2.0 g syringe last for multiple CPU or GPU applications?

Each application uses roughly the thickness of an A4 paper layer, so the 2.0 g tube covers several mounts depending on die size.

At what temperature does the compound start to degrade during continuous high-TDP loads?

The rated long-term operating range is -50 to 250 °C, so sustained heavy loads stay well within limits.

How hot does the paste itself get when the cooler runs all day?

It remains stable across the full -50 to 250 °C range and is described as non-volatile, so it does not dry out or pump out under constant operation.
