GELID Solutions GC-2 Premium Thermal Compound Review

The last time I had the pleasure of dealing with GELID Solutions was when they asked me to have a look at their Silent Spirit CPU cooler back in January. At that time GELID was nice enough to send along a tube of GC-1 along with it. Our testing requires the use of AS-5, the “industry standard” recommended TIM. So with that I was left to test the GC-1 in everyday uses on my main and secondary PC’s.

Time goes by and just about every heatsink I removed for maintenance or heatsink replacement eventually got the GC-1 treatment for a few reasons. Once I used it I saw a drop in temperatures over my previous TIM. Second, the paste is non-curing, so there isn’t the set-in time required to “wait and see” if it is any better. Last and most important, is the fact it is non-conductive.
