Product Review

NT-H2 is the further improved second generation of Noctua's award-winning hybrid thermal compound. Combining the iconic NT-H1's proven features, superb ease of use and renowned long-term stability with a novel, fine-tuned formula of micro particles for even better thermal performance, NT-H2 is an enthusiast-grade paste for the highest demands. Whether it's air- or water-based cooling, CPU or GPU applications, overclocking or silent systems: NT-H2 will consistently deliver outstanding results and thanks to the included cleaning wipes, it is just as easy to remove as to apply.

Based on the award-winning NT-H1
NT-H2 is based on Noctua's renowned NT-H1, which has received more than 150 awards and recommendations from international hardware websites and magazines. Chosen again and again by overclockers and enthusiast users worldwide, NT-H1 has established itself as a benchmark for premium-quality thermal interface materials (TIMs).

Next-generation performance
Further improving the award-winning NT-H1, NT-H2 uses a new, fine-tuned mixture of metal oxide micro-particles for even lower thermal resistance and reduced bond-line thickness at typical mounting pressures. This allows it to achieve an even better performance in most application scenarios.

Not electrically conductive, non-corroding
While some high-end thermal compounds and pads are risky to use due to their electrical conductivity or corroding properties, there's no risk of short-circuits with NT-H2 and it's completely safe to use with any type of CPU cooler, regardless of whether it's made from copper or aluminium and whether it's nickel-plated or not.

3.5g package for 3-20 applications
Sufficient for around 3-20 applications (depending on the size of the CPU or GPU), the classic 3.5g packaging size is ideal for most users who only install coolers every now and then.
