Oh, hi Mark
> 3 dayOpened my PS4 for the first time ever, lots of guides are absolutely horrible at guiding you through the process I have found. After taking it apart completely (cleaning it) and putting it back together, I noticed a huge difference in the home screen alone. Launching a game was a different story; it was way louder than it had ever been. I failed to reapply thermal paste, bought this, applied it, put it back together along with some new thermal pads. Its never been quieter. These are the thermal pads I used, theyre already precut, they do slightly hang over the RAM chips, but I dont think thats a bad thing - they arent too big, but theyre immensely bigger than the originals: SIXQJZML 30Pcs 15x15x1mm Soft Silicone Thermal Conductive Pads Heatsink IC Chipset Northbridge for CPU GPU Heatsink . Im shocked honestly! Very happy with my purchase, I would definitely recommend to anyone at all with a loud PS4. Going to really put it to the test today by streaming some Titanfall 2 multiplayer. If you want a good guide, look for How To Refurbish PS4 Model CUH-1215A (the channel is called Console Fix) on YouTube, that guys video saved me a lot of trouble. The only bad thing I could say about the video was that the camera quality is in 480p (but he does have 2 camera angles), which wont really affect the process, just be sure to pay attention and youll be fine. 10/10 - Small grey pads are original, big blue ones are new, had pictures of old thermal paste but cant find them, needless to say it was mostly dry and cracked - * BE CARFUL - taking the top and bottom shell off, I some how or another ended up with 2 plastic tabs which I can only assume snapped off of one of the plastic shells when prying it open. Everything still went together fine, it just wont hurt to have all plastic clamps still on your console.*

Greater than one weekNot sure what theyve done to this stuff but it sure isnt like it used to be. Ive been using this particular thermal paste for a number of years now and have always found it to be an excellent consistency and always worked well. However......I was not very impressed with this tube of paste. It is so thin and watery that it actually ran off the heat sink as I was applying it. Ive never had that happen before. I always apply a thin coating to both the processor and the heat sink to be sure there is full contact. Ill be throwing this in the garbage and reordering something different from elsewhere. I cant prove it was the cause but this is the first time Ive had a laptop overheat and burn out the processor the first time I turned it on after replacing the thermal paste. The laptop was in for a general cleanup at which time I always replace the thermal past. This time...I had to replace the laptop as well. This was a very expensive lesson to learn. I dont have the right to tell anybody NOT to buy it but my recommendation would be to find something else. Take care and stay safe.

> 3 dayLa pasta parece original, no trae la paleta de aplicación pero funciona bien, en mi caso el problema fue mas el disipador de cobre.

> 3 dayTried and true, ive been using this forever and my preferred thermal paste for cpu chip. It actually has silver in it so it conducts heat well however, its also conductive. Thats why i recommend this for cpus because there arent a lot of thing that can short out around the cpu on a motherboard compared to a gpu. dont use this on a gpu because it has many tiny components around the gpu chip that could short if you happen to put too much on, and go to clean it later only to smear it on other components.
