Thermal paste Gelid GC-Extreme 2 g - high-performance thermal compound, model TC-GC-03-E

Gelid GC-Extreme 2 g is a high-performance thermal compound formulated to improve heat transfer between processors, graphics chips and heatsinks. The electrically non-conductive paste fills microscopic surface irregularities to reduce thermal resistance and support lower operating temperatures during demanding workloads and overclocking. Packaged in a 2 g tube, this thermal paste is intended for targeted application where a small quantity is sufficient for one or several assemblies.

Advantages

GC-Extreme provides high thermal conductivity in a stable, low-viscosity formulation that enables thin, even application and long-term performance. Because the compound is electrically non-conductive, it reduces the risk of short circuits on CPU and GPU contact areas. The product is suitable for precision application on desktop processors and graphics cards and is designed for use in systems where efficient heat dissipation is required.

Suitable for

• Applying between CPU heat spreaders and cooling solutions in desktop PCs
• Thermal interface on discrete GPUs and graphics cards
• Overclocked systems and high-load workstations where reduced temperatures are needed
• Small repairs or upgrades where a 2 g tube provides sufficient quantity

Key specifications

• Net content: 2 g tube
• Thermal interface material type: high-performance thermal compound
• Electrical properties: electrically non-conductive
• Consistency: paste designed for thin, even spreading
• Intended use: CPUs, GPUs and heatsinks

How to use

Ensure both contact surfaces are clean and free of old thermal compound, dust and oils before application. Apply a small, pea-sized amount of Gelid GC-Extreme to the center of the processor heat spreader or follow manufacturer-specific mounting patterns. Mount the cooler and tighten mounting hardware evenly to spread the compound into a thin, uniform layer. If reapplying, remove the old compound completely with an appropriate solvent and lint-free cloth before adding new paste.

Usage recommendations

Use only the amount needed to form a thin, continuous thermal layer; avoid excess paste that can impede proper mounting. Allow normal thermal cycling after initial installation and monitor temperatures under load to ensure adequate thermal transfer. Keep the tube capped when not in use and store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
