Product Reviews
- “The Zalman ZM-STG1 delivers exactly what it promises. Temperatures on an Intel D840 dual core processor were brought down 3 degrees (or just under 8%), by simply ditching the generic white paste for the ZM-STG1. It doesn't get much easier than that.
”
- “We selected four of the top thermal compounds on the market. Testing them on the same CPU and stock cooling system, we found something that's unlikely to shock you. The biggest difference between the compounds was two degrees. But simply for ease of use, Zalman's offering wins through.”

Zalman ZM-STG1 Super Thermal Grease, 3.5 g bottle
 | ZM-STG1 Super Thermal Grease, 3.5 g bottle [Due in 1 week] | €6,68 (€7,86 inc BTW) |
Zalman ZM-STG1 Super Thermal Grease
Zalman's new Super Thermal Grease will ensure an excellent thermal connection between the heat source (e.g. CPU) and heatsink. It maximises heat transfer by eliminating minute air gaps caused by the two irregular surfaces.
It is conveniently packaged in a bottle which has a brush attached to the cap. This enables easy application and also prevents unnecessary waste of grease. Messy fingers are a thing of the past! The sealed bottle also ensures that the grease is kept fresh for a longer period of time, which is useful because one bottle of ZM-STG1 will be enough for ten or more applications.

Installation instructions
Clean any particles or residue from the contact surfaces of both the heat source and the heatsink. ArctiClean is an excellent product for removing any old thermal compound. Next, shake the bottle well and apply the ZM-STG1 sparingly and evenly onto both surfaces. Finally, install the heatsink as per the manufacturer instructions.
