High-conductivity thermal paste for CPUs and GPUs

Maxtor Thermal CTG8 is a 12.8 W/mK compound built for processors and graphics cards that run hot. The syringe holds 4.0 g of non-volatile grease, enough for several socket applications. It targets gamers and enthusiasts who need reliable heat transfer without frequent re-application.

Covers multiple mounts

The 4.0 g volume handles several CPU or GPU installs, giving comfortable coverage for mainstream and high-TDP processors. Very large dies or direct-die bare-die mounting may consume the syringe faster, so buyers planning many builds should note the limited quantity.

Stable from minus 50 to 250 °C with no pump-out

Rated for continuous operation between -50 °C and 250 °C, the paste resists drying and pump-out under normal loads. Typical mounting pressure spreads it to roughly A4-paper thickness, keeping thermal resistance low and fan noise down because the cooler does not have to spin faster.

Questions about this item

Will the 12.8 W/mK conductivity work with an older CPU cooler that still uses a standard mounting bracket?

Yes — the 12.8 W/mK paste is a universal compound that fills microscopic gaps between any CPU or GPU die and the cooler base, regardless of bracket design.

How can I verify the paste is performing correctly after I apply it?

After mounting the cooler, monitor CPU and GPU temperatures under load; they should stay within the rated -50 to 250 °C operating window and show lower peaks than with the previous compound.

The listing mentions 20 g — does the box contain a single 20 g syringe or multiple smaller tubes?

The package includes one 4.0 g syringe; the 20 g figure refers to the multipack quantity, so additional syringes must be purchased separately for larger builds.
