My PC configuration-

Core i3 4150 3.5Ghz,

Asus H81M-P

GTX 1050

PSU ThermalTake 550watt

I think, I've to re-apply thermal compound on my processor. But unfortunately, where I live, there's no good quality product available.

I found some unnamed products like (https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/50pcs-lot-Black-Mini-Heatsink-Thermal-Compound-Silicone-Grease-CPU-GPU-VGA-Paste/515717_32547753913.htm this) and branded product like (https://ryanscomputers.com/thermaltake-cl00028-thermal-pest.html this) [Thermaltake CLZ0022 TG-3 Thermal Paste] . Can I use this thermaltake product on my Intel processor?

Hello Sijan:

 

 

Thank you very much for joining the Intel® processors communities.

 

 

Thank you also for providing those links.

 

 

I tried to open the links but for some reason they are not working, let me apologize for that.

 

 

In regard to your question, there are many different brands of thermal paste that will work with the processor with no problems. There are some customers that prefer to use the "Artic Slver" but the "Thermaltake" is also a good option to use.

 

 

On the following link you will find additional details for the "Artic Slver" thermal paste, how to apply it and where to buy it:
