EK Water Blocks Ectotherm TIM Now Sold Separately in 5 g Syringes

[btarunr]

EK Water Blocks, Ljubljana based premium computer liquid cooling gear manufacturer, is proud to introduce EK-TIM Ectotherm in retail packaging. The very same thermal compound, previously only available when bundled with EK Full Cover water blocks, is now available for separate purchase in a practical 5g dose.

EK-TIM Ectotherm is a best in-class thermal compound with exceptional value for money. This thermal interface material provides an effective heat transfer and easy application between CPU, GPU or any other PCH/chipset and heat sink.



Ectotherm has been bundled with EK Full Cover water blocks since early 2013 and has been deployed by various system integrators as a cost effective, yet high performance thermal compound. This Low Viscosity and Electrically Non-Conductive thermal compound makes each application trouble-free and failsafe.

EK-TIM Ectotherm comes in a practical five grams (5g) packaging within a reusable gitf-box and is thus a perfect choice for passionate computer modders, overclockers and computer repair shop personel.

Features:

• High Thermal Conductivy
• Low Thermal Resistance
• Low Viscosity
• Non-Capacitive and Electrically Non-Conductive
• Non-Corrosive and Non-Curring
• No Bleeding & User Friendly

Technical specifications:

• Density (g/cm3): 3.0
• Net Content (g): 5.0
• Thermal conductivity (W/mK): 8.5
• Optimal working temperature (°C): +100 to -50

well a (W/mK): 8.5 like a bunch of them, but nice to see it in 5g, just have to see the pricing and it might be a good one

There is almost zero real difference in the top 25+ TIMs including re-packaged stuff that some people pay outrageous prices for because they don't know any better. Your CPU/APU/GPU is not going to perform any better with a just couple degrees change in operating temp.

It's gotten to the point where many reviewers have stopped testing TIM because there really is no significant gains over existing top TIMs. You can buy adhesives and other coatings that might produce a few degrees lower temps than the best TIMs, but you can screw up a perfectly good CPU/APU/GPU with many of these coatings.

There is almost zero real difference ...

I expected something about EK's constant PR, what did you do to real Jorge?
