Noctua NT-H2 3.5g Thermal Paste AM5 Edition

NT-H2 is the further improved second generation of Noctua's award-winning hybrid thermal paste. It combines the outstanding application comfort and proven long-term stability of the popular NT-H1 with a novel, further optimized microparticle formulation for even better thermal performance. Whether for air or water cooling, CPU or GPU applications, overclocking or silent systems: NT-H2 consistently delivers top-notch results, and thanks to the included cleaning wipes, the paste is as easy to remove as it is to apply – an enthusiast solution for the highest demands! The AM5 Edition also includes the NA-TPG1 sealing cover, which prevents thermal paste buildup in the side recesses of the heat spreader of AMD AM5 processors – a simple yet highly effective solution for keeping AM5 CPUs clean.

• Based on the award-winning NT-H1
  The NT-H2 is based on Noctua's renowned NT-H1, which has received more than 150 awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines. The NT-H1 is a popular choice among overclockers and hardware enthusiasts around the world, making it an established reference for high-quality thermal pastes.
• Award-winning performance
  To further improve the award-winning NT-H1, the mixture of metal oxide microparticles for NT-H2 was consistently optimized to enable even lower thermal resistance and thinner layer thicknesses at typical contact pressures. This allows NT-H2 to achieve even better results in most application scenarios .
• AM5 Edition with sealing cover
  The pressure applied by the cooler forces excess thermal paste outward. On AM5 CPUs, this excess paste often collects in the side recesses of the heat spreader, where it is difficult to remove. The NA-TPG1 sealing cover prevents this undesirable phenomenon easily and safely.
• Easy to apply
  NT-H2 spreads excellently under pressure and therefore does not need to be manually spread before installing the cooler: simply apply some paste to the CPU (see application instructions for details), put the cooler on - done!
• Easy removal with included cleaning wipes
  The 3.5g pack comes with three large NA-CW1 cleaning wipes moistened with a special active ingredient solution, making NT-H2 removal a breeze: simply wipe the paste off the CPU and the cooler's contact surface with one of the wipes, and you're done!
• Optional NA-SCW1 set for frequent use
  For power users who frequently disassemble and reassemble their coolers, we recommend purchasing the optional NA-SCW1 set, which includes 20 NA-SCW1 cleaning wipes. These wipes make it easy to remove NT-H2 from CPU heat spreaders and the cooler's contact surface.
• Non-electrically conductive, non-corrosive
  While the use of some high-end thermal pastes and pads is risky due to their electrical conductivity or corrosive properties, with NT-H2 you are always on the safe side: no risk of short circuits, trouble-free use with CPU coolers of all types (copper, aluminum, with or without nickel plating, etc.)!
• Excellent long-term stability
  The paste's special formulation demonstrates excellent long-term stability, even after intensive use. NT-H2 can be stored at room temperature for at least three years and, thanks to its excellent curing, bleeding, dry-out, and thermal cycling characteristics, can be used on CPUs for five years or more.
• No run-in time required
  Some thermal pastes require a longer break-in period to reach their full performance, and some thermal pads require a separate burn-in process. In contrast, NT-H2 is fully operational immediately and requires no special preparation.
• 3.5g pack for 3-20 applications
  The classic 3.5g pack is perfect for users who only occasionally install coolers. Depending on the CPU size, it is sufficient for approximately 3-20 applications (e.g., approximately 3 applications for large CPUs like TR4, 15 for AM4/AM5 or LGA1700, and approximately 20 for small CPUs like LGA1151).
