Current assortment of 2E Thermoboost thermal interfaces

The versatile 2E assortment is an up-to-date offer for the work, office, home computer system and gaming station: computer cases, power supplies, cooling systems for the processor, fans, useful accessories and consumables.

Contact frames for installing cooling systems on modern sockets, a controller for fans, a holder for video adapter in computer case, thermal paste of various sizes and properties. These are mostly related goods to the main products.

Computer overheating during the game or active work can have serious consequences. In addition to inconveniences, the failure of components is accompanied by repair costs, and it is not always possible to repair a malfunctioning element. Overheating occurs for various reasons. The cooling system begins to work loudly and hard, as a result, performance decreases, and the device may suddenly turn off. If the cause is contamination, then the problem is solved by cleaning the device components.

However, over time, the problem appears more frequently and cleaning no longer saves the situation. In this case, it is advisable to use thermal paste, which will successfully cope with the removal of excess heat and maintaining the normal temperature of the components.

What is thermal paste and why is it necessary to change it?

Thermal paste is a compound with heat-conducting properties that improves heat transfer between the heated element (processor, video card, etc.) and the radiator. The consistency of the thermal interface can be liquid (practically like water), medium density and thick. There are also different colors, mostly white, gray and blue.

How to choose thermal paste

It is worth paying attention to the viscosity index of the thermal paste. The compound should not be too liquid and not too thick. In the first option, the thermal paste will not create the desired contact, and in the second, its applying will be quite problematic.

It is not recommended to use white or silicone thermal paste. The chemical composition and proportion of all constituent elements of the thermal paste must be sufficiently calibrated. Thermal paste with a percentage excess of silicone has sufficiently low heat dissipation performance, it dries quickly and loses its properties.

As an example, the composition of the 2E Thermoboost thermal paste compound:

It is necessary to pay attention to the thermal conductivity index of the thermal paste and the volume of the compound in the package.

Thermal paste packaging should not only be airtight, but also convenient. Directly on the syringe of 2E Thermoboost thermal paste special divisions are placed, which orient the user about the volume of the compound without the need to open the package an additional time.

2E Thermoboost thermal paste is stored for up to 5 years in a closed form and not for a long time from the moment of use. It all depends on the conditions of storage and use.

Thermal paste replacement. Surface preparation

Before starting the process, it is necessary to disconnect the device from the network, unscrew and remove the parts that prevent access to the place of replacing the thermal paste. If it is a laptop – remove the battery. Then clean the surface from the thermal paste remains that was applied earlier and has already lost its properties.

Why is it necessary to remove the remains of thermal paste from the surface when applying a new one?

A mixture of two thermal pastes (new and old) creates an additional separation of two media, which reduces thermal conductivity. Therefore, before applying fresh thermal paste, it is necessary to carefully clean the old one.

The compound can be removed with an alcohol lint-free tissue for office equipment. It is forbidden to use acetone, water or solvent. Replacing thermal paste on a laptop, where the processor surface crystal is not protected by metal, is a very important moment. Cleaning should be done carefully so as not to damage it.

The 2E Thermoboost thermal paste set includes a special alcohol-soaked napkin for removing compound residues from the surface. It is convenient during usage. There is no need to look for additional cleaning products.

How to properly apply thermal paste on the processor surface

It is an important point, because carelessness can lead to consequences that will negatively affect the processor performance.

Tips for applying thermal paste to the processor surface are as follows:

• thermal paste should be applied evenly, only in the place where the processor and the radiator meet;
• thermal paste layer should be scanty and complete, without passes and breaks;
• thermal paste drop is applied in the center and carefully distributed over the entire surface;
• it is possible to distribute the substance over the processor surface by various means, but it is very convenient when the set includes additional devices provided by the manufacturer.

The 2E Thermoboost thermal paste set includes a special plastic spatula and a rubber syringe nozzle for convenient applying of thermal paste with a high thermal conductivity (2E Thermoboost Profi and 2E Thermoboost Supreme series).

On average, the layer of correctly applied thermal paste is 0.5-1 mm, therefore, if one drop is not enough to grease the entire surface, it is allowed to add a few more in any position. The main thing is not to overdo it. Thermal paste fills microcracks of the surface and ensures maximum contact with the processor surface. If the paste gets outside the applying surface, it must be carefully removed.

The final stage of the thermal paste replacement process is the removal of compound residues after installing the components.

2E offers an easy-to-use, universal assortment of 2E Thermoboost thermal pastes for various needs:

• the color of the compound is gray;
• the percentage of silicone impurities relative to other elements of the compound in the chemical composition is minimal;
• the finely dispersed structure of thermal paste and its optimal viscosity contribute to uniform distribution on the surface, which affects efficiency and convenience during usage;
• range of working temperatures in the interval is from -30 to 280°C;
• thermal paste does not conduct electric current and does not contain liquid metals;
• convenient blister packaging. The syringe is airtight and has divisions, it is possible to see the volume of the paste without opening it;
• the set includes useful accessories: a plastic spatula for uniform and convenient applying of thermal paste, a special napkin for preparing and cleaning the surface, a rubber nozzle for a syringe and a detailed user manual with comprehensive information.
