How come my temps get higher after some time of using? I use PTM as well. I reed it somewhere it can last up to 10 years or something but I am not sure what's really happening here.
So the pads have to be hot enough for a while to melt then it will have good performance, but it's not that good while the PC is still cold, it's actually amazing
just a heads up noctuas paste is unsuitable for any modern cpus and gpus, especially in a direct die role. If you have to use itll last longer on a chip with a heatspreader. Its temperature range is way too low causing the thermalpaste to separate due to small portions of a direct die and heatspreader exceeding its design limits causing a pump out effect of the silicone oil which aids in pushing out the transfer material in waves. This is the pump out effect. ideally the thickest paste has the best durability before requiring replacement, thats why these phase change materials are excellent theyre so thick they solidify at cooler temperatures.
@@ps3customgamer Search "Thermal Migration Noctua Paste" and you'll probably find Forum and Reddit discussions on the topic. It's not JUST Noctua's pastes; most Pastes will thermally migrate and/or separate on thermally-dense silicon. My MX-4 application on my Vega 10 16GB card, has 'lost performance' over the last 4-6months, and it's not merely 'dust'. When I put the MX-4 on, I noticed the previous owner's TIM-application (that replaced the Synthetic/Pyrolytic Graphite pad) had both migrated and 'cooked'.
@@ps3customgamer Most gpu manufacturers are starting to go with ptm 7950 because it has better application then noctua paste which is garbage anyways.

The stuff works great. I recommend cutting it smaller by ~3mm on all 4 sides. It makes it much easier to 2nd peel, and you'll still achieve full coverage since ~80% will flow out once it melts. Needs a good burn in to achieve it's thinnest. I recommend a good 2 hours at around 80C on both CPU and GPU die. Best paired with Thermal Putty, rather than pads, as putty compresses much better than pads do. This gives the CPU and GPU core more of the heatsink mounting pressure. Lots of good options for aftermarket putties out there these days. Avoid K5 Pro like the plague.
@@ValorHederaG i think thermal pad should be good, i haven't change my laptop thermal pad vram since i bought it on 2019, and i have no issues, just replace my proc & gpu thermal paste so far.
If you can access the advanced bios of the asus tuf via the SERP smokeless bios method, you can enable undervolting on the i5 11400h. Alternatively there's a simple bios tweak you can do to unlock undervolting. Once the CPU + GPU are UV'd + OC'd, you can prolly get an even higher score and more performance while not increasing temps.
In addition you can use memo fl08 cooler at 1500 rpm (quite and good air flow ) and you will get absolutely lower temps around 10 - 15 C on cpu and 10 - 20 C on gpu and if you don’t give shit about noise you can max the fan speed and you will see huge difference (PTM7950 + K5 Pro + Pressure Air Fan Cooler = Cold Laptop at maximum Performance)
I have my llano v10 on the way and the ptm 7950 + upsiren u6 pro has already dropped my 90c 12500h to 72c. Once i have the cooler, my aorus is gonna be crazy cold haha
In low compresion scenarios PTM7950 outperforms KPX because it has a lower viscosity than KPX (once it changes phase). In high compression scenarios KPX outperforms PTM7950, at least during a 12 hour test. That being said, PTM7950 usually improves over time so it's possible it could eventually match KPX performance given enough time. I tested it out on a GPU Die (Low Compression with 4 little spring screws, rather than X bracket), and also tested it on CPU (High Compression Noctua NH-U12S).

Hello, its getting close to the end of the year now, and I was wondering how the performance is holding up? I am looking to do this to my Razer Blade 16, which is hitting crazy high temperatures on the i9 13950HX hitting temperature sikes of 107*C momentarily and throttling down, and with average temps while gaming sitting between 95-100*C, if this can actually decrease temperature by 10* i believe I can get the CPU to finally stop throttling.
Is NVIDIA not using this on RTX 4090 FE as well now ? anyway i keep hearing it performs as close if not better then liquid metal while not having to worry about conductivity and frying hardware I wanna apply this to my liquid devil 7900 XTX that has hotspot of 90c or so which is watercooled card, if heard least about 1 person having great succes with PTM7950 on 7900 XTX he had a hotspot of 61c at 400w total board power in cyberpunk 2077 my hotspot varies per game tho it can be 80c 82c in 1 game then peek 87 90c in another and only do 70c hotspot in furmark while doing instant 80c going up to 90c hotspot in 3D occt test. This stuff is supose to melt above 45c but from my understanding it does not turn back to a solid state after it melts and gets better thru multiple cycles, i see you haven't done 2e video yet did your thermals improve or settle bit higher now.

While it is recommended to disconnect the battery before doing this, I didn't disconnect it because all of the materials we're working with are non-conductive.
I like to live dangerously. 😜 On a serious note, the battery cable is very fragile, it may cause more problems for an average user to unplug and plug it back. The laptop has an auto kill switch so the board does not have any power when the back is open. Most modern laptops have this to avoid shorts.
you should have replaced the pads on your memory - putting it back like you did is gonna f up your system badly also if you wanted to be scientific you should have done a "fresh TIM" vs "fresh PTM7950" comparison. For your follow up you should use the "old TIM" vs "old PTM7950" and then compare them to the first 2 values - 4 values total.
I already had seen the LTT video over four months ago. And then you decide to make your own with testing for Laptops. Good for you! But, I have a problem with the fact that you referred to the information being displayed on your laptop display. First, the laptop was so far in the background that you could not what was being displayed, even in 1440p. And the few times the video had a close-up of the laptop display. The display was so f'ing blurry that you couldn't see anything being displayed. There was no way for anyone to know the exact temps that you were seeing. Because there was nothing for anyone to see. Another problem I had with your video. Is that you were complaining about the temps was already climbing to 90C, for which you didn't like. Then when you opened your laptop up. And everyone could see that your fans were clogged with dirt and hair. That is the freaking reason why your laptop was reaching temps of 90C. Now, you had stated that you had only just applied Notura's thermal paste 15 days prior. Didn't you even bother to clean the freaking fans when you had done that? The amount of dirt and hair in those fans if from a long term use and the fans not being cleaned. Not from 15 days worth of use. What you should have done was, stopped the video. Cleaned the fans and restated creating the video. But, this time with clean fans, and heatsinks, to show the true temps for that laptop. And then tested the PTM7950 and compared the results. Now, this is something that you should already know. But, obviously you don't seem to. Laptops and Desktops get dirt, and hair, in them that eventually gets into the fans and stuck to the heatsinks. If you own a PC, whether a Desktop or Laptop, you are required to clean out the computer of any and all dirt, and hair, periodically, For a Desktop you need to clean it out at least once a year. But, if you live in a dusty environment. Then you need to every 6 months. For a Laptop, it is worst that than. You need to clean it out at least once every 6 months. But, realistically you need to do it at least once every 3-4 months. As a Laptop clogs up with dirt and hair quite quickly.
