For this review I used three thermal compounds. The first was a baseline control test with some generic “Thermal Grease” that I had laying around the lab. I think it was included with an aftermarket heatsink and was promptly put into the "box". Noctua NT-H1 and NT-H2 are the real contenders here and I was surprised to see a 1 degree drop between the two and a two degree drop between the NT-H2 and the generic thermal grease. These numbers confirm the findings from Noctua where they saw a 2 degree drop between their compounds from their internal control tests.

"I am happy to report that the new Noctua NT-H2 delivers exactly what you should expect. Overall there is improved thermal performance and the lighter viscosity helps the compound spread better and promote more metal to metal contact further improving performance."
