The importance of thermal grease for computer CPU cooling applications with amazing heat!
As the heart of the computer, the CPU generates amazing heat and cannot be ignored. Generally, the CPU transfers heat to the radiator through the thermal conductive silicone grease material, so as to achieve the purpose of effective heat dissipation. When the CPU heat is too high, the system will have blue screen, restart, crash, etc. Therefore, the heat conduction and heat dissipation of the CPU becomes particularly important.
When installing the cooling fan, apply thermal grease between the heat sink and the CPU. The role of thermal grease is not only to quickly and evenly transfer the heat generated by the CPU to the heat sink. In most cases, thermal grease can also increase heat dissipation. The uneven surface of the sheet is in contact with the thermal conduction of the CPU, and the thermal conductive silicone grease also has a certain degree of viscosity. When the metal shrapnel that fixes the heat sink is slightly aging and loosened, the heat sink can not be separated from the CPU surface to a certain extent. And maintain the efficiency of the cooling fan.
Theoretically speaking, under the premise of ensuring that the gap between the CPU and the heat sink can be filled, the thinner the thermal grease layer, the better. After all, in terms of thermal conductivity, the thicker the thermal conductive material will increase the thermal resistance. Therefore, the key to applying thermal grease is to be even, free of impurities, free of bubbles, and then as thin as possible.
