Maxtor CTG8 4g Carbon Based Thermal Compound for CPU and GPU, 12.8 W/m-K
BDT 495
Quantity
The Maxtor CTG8 Carbon Based Thermal Paste helps move heat from your CPU or GPU into the cooler, using carbon micro-particles and a thermal conductivity of 12.8 W/m-K. It is also metal-free and non-conductive, so you get strong heat transfer without the short-circuit risk that comes with metal-based compounds.
If you are looking for a Maxtor thermal paste for a new build, a cooler upgrade or a routine repaste, the CTG8 comes in a 4 gram pack and is designed to be easy to spread, even if you are new to applying paste.
It suits gamers, PC builders, technicians and everyday users who want a safe, high-performance thermal compound for processors, graphics cards and other heat-generating chips.
Key Features
Thermal conductivity of 12.8 W/m-K: Carries heat away from high-load chips such as a CPU or GPU into the cooler, supporting lower core temperatures.
Carbon micro-particle formula: Uses carbon particles to deliver high thermal conductivity, helping the heat from your CPU or GPU dissipate effectively.
Metal-free and non-conductive: Reduces the risk of short circuits if paste spreads near the socket or card components, adding protection for your CPU and graphics card.
Easy to apply: A smooth silicone-grease consistency spreads easily, which makes the paste simple to use even for beginners.
Suitable for IC, processor, CPU, GPU and coolers: One tube works across a range of chips and heatsinks, so you can use it for several projects.
4 gram pack: A generous pack that gives you enough paste for a build and later repastes.
Why Choose This Thermal Paste
The thin layer of thermal paste between a chip and its cooler has a direct effect on temperatures. The Maxtor CTG8 thermal paste pairs high thermal conductivity with a safe, non-conductive carbon formula, so you do not have to trade performance for peace of mind.
Shoppers searching for a Maxtor thermal paste often want a performance-focused product that is also simple to handle. The CTG8 is easy to apply, works on both CPUs and GPUs, and comes in a 4 gram pack for repeated use.
For a fresh build, a cooler replacement or a scheduled repaste, it is a practical choice for anyone chasing better cooling.
