Is putting arctic silver 5 thermal paste on my CPU going to benefit my MacBook Pro? And if so what’s the best method of application and how do I do it? Thank You.
Arctic Silver 5 optimizes heat transfer from your CPU to the metal of your heat sink so it dissipates the heat more quickly. This lowers overall temperature after running a while, which allows for improved performance of your Mac. Here is a video on how to apply: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdHMsDXp… • Clean the surface first on both CPU and heat sink surfaces with rubbing alcohol. • Put a super thin layer on the CPU. The idea is you just want enough to fill in imperfects of the surface.
