GPU Thermal paste?

[Ripjaw]

Im wondering if this is a done thing? Im planning on getting some better paste for my cpu and cooler and wondered as im getting a decent sized tube is it worth putting it on the gpu aswell? Is it a done thing?

Don't bother unless your gpu has overheating problems

If you do repaste MX-4 is the best.

I beg to differ. I found Gelid Solutions GC Extreme was 1-2c better than my MX-4.

Well I beg to differ x2

I've used both and MX-4 came up on top 2c better.

My findings regarding Gelid and MX-4 were the same as when Stulid did a review of all the pastes that ocuk sell. Gelid was definitely the better of the two, infact i found mx2 to be marginally better than mx4.

Well that's nice.

I did my own tests, but don't have any graphs and MX-4 was better.

It's good to know both are amazing

Sounds like a classic case of PEBKAC to me.
