Now make a video comparing different toothpaste brands and models.
I like mint toothpaste for that minty smell when gaming.
@@mikem9536I bet mint will cool better too!
Thank you for putting this together. I’ve been brushing with Arctic Silver ever since 😆. Seriously, it was good to see the numbers.
I like the silver sheen it leaves behind.

Toothpaste wont last long maybe a week or so. The cheap thermal paste will work for a year.
absolutely
look at the bright side, you have alot of it ;)
I am agree, expensive can live long, look at video expensive can hold more good 60 degrees n i agree with that
A week? Whiter will evaporate in an hour or two.
agree like those free paste that come with cpu cooler it still there even 3-4 years passed.
I've used HY-510 for years on multiple CPUs (R9-3900X, R7-5700X and R7-5800X3D), directly on an APU die (A8-3500M) and directly on a GPU die (RX 580 2048SP). The stuff just works and it's DIRT CHEAP. I just bought 300g of it for less than $25CAD. Tom's Hardware did a huge test of thermal pastes and the difference between what could be called "the best" and what could be called "the worst" was a paltry 7.2°C across 85 different pastes from 33°C to 40.2°C after 2 hours of running the Prime95 CPU torture test. This means that, for gaming, you can use anything because gaming isn't nearly as hard on a CPU as an all-core torture test like Prime95.
Unless you're some extreme competitive overclocker, buying expensive thermal paste is about as smart and as useful as using a 36mm AIO on a 65W CPU for gaming (not in the least).
You're using fingers to spread a thermal compound.... Bruh!
Uhm, that's actually pretty common. It doesn't matter if you spread it with your fingers or with a scrap, as long as you washed your hands before.
The most important part is to actually spread it over the whole CPU, and don't use too much. If you just put a dot on it, or a X, there is no guarantee it will flatten out 100%. And if you use too much, it will spill over, and thats not optimal. So, always spread it over the whole CPU ;)
It's supposed to be poisonous. Like everything.
Phaah, im too
Eww
da fuq is wrong in spreading it with a finger? i do that too, and no, it's not poisonous, ofcourcer you're not supposed to eat it but a small dose isnt magically gonna kill u
I put the thermal paste in a moderately thin square shape. It spreads very well when I tried it on a glass so I can see through if it spreads well or not.
Toothpaste performs like this only first day after its dried out things will go worst.
Also expensive paste only improves 5,6 degrees. So I think for most people a cheap thermal paste is the way to go.
I still don't understand why people love to use colgate as a themal paste lol
For temporary solution it work, I did it for a CPU that barely work and change it to thermal paste after I bought one
They look the same and it's cool in mouth
Tartar control keeps your cpu plaque-free
It’s calls being broke
@@naorl8866 but... Just buy a thermal paste tube, that's dangerous tho
Dry touchpaste + thick lithium grease.
Parameters do not deteriorate over time.
Checked! :)
I used a cheap thermal paste for my Lenovo Laptop and the temperature is running at 56 celcius at peak work photo edit, office and video editing.
I ran a CPU for 5 years without thermal paste, last year I finally got some generic gray thermal paste. Since I only game the CPU rarely ever made it past 70, now it hoovers around 60. Theres a fear culture around it, the more crazy ones will even tell you that "High level of risk that a hot spot can arise and damage the chip".
i just switched coolers and had to realize i was probably running my oc cpu without thermal paste for a year. its funny cause i didnt switch to get the temps but down but actually the noise.
im runing a laptop from 2010, and i dont know if they changed the paste 5 years when i buy it, but i know i didnt, and still works fine, it gets hot af but sooner or later i will have to put it some goo in, i just try to not pass the 96c limit, 100 is dangeriusly and past 105 is overly done
Lmao icy mint has a new meaning
The "expensive" isn't even expensive. You can buy good ones for 10~ uses for 3$.
Well, I got 300g of HY-510 (ten 30g tubes) for less than $25CAD. I'll never need to buy thermal paste ever again. 😁
I was realy surprised that a cooler without cooling paste performed so well
Thanks, finally i can use cheap paste to brushing my teeth to avoid high temp in my mouth
the different even smaller if test on budget air cooler. it will be like 3c at max temperature between the cheap paste and expensive paste.
I never knew you could put toothpaste on like a thermal paste
Great work and nice video sure well done 🏆
I remembee back in the day when i was 14 i use toothpaste for my lovely core 2 duo to play kerbal space program, i gotta change it probably every two days since it would dried out fast, gud times 👍
You got me at Toothpaste
Anti-seize is my go to for cheap thermal paste
i bought a new gaming laptop HP Pavilion with ryzen 7 5800h and RTX 3050. Its good but heats up a lot (went up to 95C on COD Warzone), so i tried switching the tehrmal paste but it had no effect. The paste i used cost a dollar, will using $10 arctic mx paste give better results????
That's just how the new HPs run. I've been through 3 HP laptops over the last 5 years, yet my 9 year old HP is still the best one I currently have.
it's normal laptop temperature
Old comment but you could try a very high end thermal paste :-)
In most laptops the best you can do is try to find any aftermarket software or bios that allow you to modify fan speed curve. A cheap thermal paste is the same as toothpaste as you seen here, but you could try a top end one, polishing the heatsink, set fan speed faster with FanControl or just try to undervolt your cpu if possible maybe aftermarket bios to change voltage and fan speed curve. They cut down a lot of bios settings on laptops.
Other thing that could work is lower down the mhz on boost mode, if boost to 3 for 2 seconds but goes down to 2.5 cause thermals is better to have a fix 2.7 stable boost, you know. Lot of work but you save your pc profile in Google Drive and you could format the pc and put your settings easy.
But laptop manufacturers run a little hot most of the time, but if mhz and voltage gets down cause thermal protection you could improve settings for avoid it and even if you don't get faster your lower fps could improve a lot. Mosty if throttle serverly and sadly very expensive laptops do.
Enjoy gaming!
95c is most likely the tjmax (the temperature it was designed to run at) so its no big deal unless it starts reaching over the tjmax
cheapest pastes are not good enough for me , they are kind dry quickly after a week
Oh Hell No! Please don’t add the minty fresh benchmark. Finally just got my stable overclocks, I rather brush my teeth with cheap thermal paste.
Tootpaste very interesting.
"Tootpaste" will attract flies.
Toothpaste working is crazy.
Instead of Colgate, he prefers to use shoe polish.Hahahahahahaha
No paste performed better than I expected
Still you should never try it, after a week of no thermal cpu is gonna be cooked
same but it probably did so well cause he has a beefy io cooler but if he used a normal box cooler with a fan it probably would've gone above 90 degrees celsius
the toothpaste should be mint flavored so it can run cooler
im surprised no paste didnt reach at least 90 degrees minimum
Edit: He has a beefy io cooler so thats probably why it's so impressive
So you're saying I should just use toothpaste? Gotcha
1- Don't use your fingers to spread thermal paste. Oils and skin cells plus whatever dirt is on your finger mixes with the thermal paste and it will sooner or later degrade it's performance.
2- This test is useless if he didn't do multiple heat cycles before running his tests.
3- This test also says nothing for longevity. The cheap thermal paste did as bad as the toothpaste, but I guarantee you that within 3 months that toothpaste is completely dry and useless. Please don't ever try to save money by using toothpaste.
I think with time the toothpaste, being organic may pose fire hazard too.
Why do colgate and cheap thermal paster give out the same temperatures
No product links?
OMG toothpaste actually works!
Nice video, very useful but it was worth mentioning the room temperature, there's a big difference in CPU performance between summer and winter time
this is a test of thermal paste effectiveness to transfer heat not how hot will this cpu get. room temp is irrelevant so long as it is consistent.
@@TheGreenMarksman nope . . the surrounding temperature directly affects CPUs . . your environment plays an essential role in either helping your cpu cooler or add to its agony between seasons (winter and summer) . . materials that transfer heat may also be affected just like what happens in your car radiator when using anti-freeze vs using water
@@athrunzala5337 Antifreeze is to prevent water from becoming ice not to help with thermal conductivity. I'm sure theoretically your right but at the ranges that thermal paste is applicable it's not going to matter.
If you can find one test where 1 paste beats another just by changing ambient temps I would like to see.
@@TheGreenMarksman Ambient temp differs greatly between winter and summer seasons. This might affect the thermal compound, the CPU and the cooler's behavior. I stated the ambient temp as an additional factor to the equation and not the only factor.
Seeing how these elements chemically behave between seasons might be the reason you might choose a dedicated thermal compound over toothpaste or
vice-versa.
I used the anti-freeze vs water comparison is a car radiator to prove my theory and not to compare a car anti-freeze to CPU thermal paste ;-) . .
Last;y anti-freeze isn't for winter only . . it also plays a role during a hot summer too.
@@athrunzala5337 I get what you are saying that's why i said theoretically yes it does matter but practically it doesn't matter.
I would be more worried about toothpaste drying out as it is water based.(honestly didn't think anyone would seriously use toothpaste)
it matters with water/antifreeze because they are trying to keep it in the liquid phase. preventing freezing in low temps and boiling at high.
most CPU's thermal throttle at 100c so maybe you could get water based toothpaste to boil but if your producing that much heat you would want to use more efficient T. paste anyway.
Therefore ambient temp is practically irrelevant.
😂toothpaste heavy competitor
Lmao he is trying these experiments in an i7 !!
I still use an i7 it still beats the i9 and i3 because I can overclock it much farther and still be stable and cooler at least until the next Generation comes out which are i7 just overclocked at least the Sandy Bridges
@@saltiness_incoming1407 oh iam talking about the experiments he can try those on any old processors like pentium core i3 core 2 duo or something
@@corei3s.p.852 thermal paste or any of its non conductive substitute cant damage processor
@@rayyanberg8974 please check out his other videos.
can you please leave a link for the (free) colgate toothpaste
it should be on your bathroom

Plot twist cheap thermal paste is actually coloured toothpaste
Bigger plot twist: I have been brushing our teeth with termal paste all this time.
Now we can try other tooth pastes instead of Colgate
Cheap toothpaste vs expensive toothpaste
@@juventusmessi1579 The problem is that Colgate is cheap toothpaste and Crest is about the same. We'd need something like SensoDyne. 😁
Thank you so much
Toothpaste is paste, thermal paste is paste, so thermal paste must be toothpaste.
.. He thought
i have been using it for 10 months since i saw this video, my mouth feel funny after some weeks and now my doctor says i have zinc poisoning.
and my pc, never applied thermal ever
Guess toothpaste is best alternative to thermal grease
Next video? 🤣🤣🤣 Colgate (coolgate🤣) vs blend a dent
Acording to the experiment:
Toothpaste it's better than nothing, but also equals to "Cheap" thermal, however "expensive" it's just 10% better than Toothpaste/Cheap... provinding toothpaste and cheap thermal cost about same price (TP = USD$12/3pc = ~USD3.9) and the specific brand of "expensive" Thermal Paste is around $14.90 (~350% more), seems like a "no-brainer" to go cheap.. but no, cheap thermal will defeat toothpaste in maintenance requirement frecuency, and expensive will defeat cheap.
So, in this use case seems “Cheaper” tends to come with a lower price and a higher cost.
That's a flawed way of thinking, degrees cannot be thought of as a percentage because it is not an absolute number, it's a representation of energy. So 6 degrees is not 10%, it is only 6 degrees and you interpret it as 6 degrees and never as a percentage. You should know 6°C is a massive temperature difference especially considering that it's only by applying a paste. People spend hundreds of dollars on liquid cooler over of air coolers for a couple of degrees difference. So yes, the price is 100% worth no matter what you're setup is IF you want to maximize cooling.
This test doesn't say that at all. This test says "It doesn't matter". Cheap thermal paste doesn't last a shorter amount of time than expensive stuff. Where did you come up with that bullshit, a Kryonaut marketing brochure? I've been building PCs since before CPUs needed coolers and sure, back in the day, when coolers were new, you wanted the expensive stuff because the cheap stuff really was terrible but that hasn't been true for well over 10 years now. Our tech is so advanced that you can't save much money in production costs by making a vastly inferior product so nobody bothers trying. Even "the worst" CPU paste, according to Tom's Hardware is only 6.5C hotter than using Kryonaut. That 6.5C won't do a thing to make a difference, it is a negligable difference at best.
Yes, but you literally have toothpaste all day, every day, meanwhile you can run out if thermal paste and not even realize. For emergencies, toothpaste will do the trick to get your PC up and running, and not super hard to clean off
6 degrees is not "10%". You do not compare it to freezing temperatures. The baseline should be the ambient temperature. If it was 20 degrees in his room, then it's more like a 15% improvement. Of course, this does not consider the cooler's ability to dissapate the heat as well, and other variables unaccounted for.
@@faisal3398 that's some "fuck the poor" type of bullshit. 6-10 degrees won't change much as well as water cooling isn't worth it's money. Just slap 200watt air cooler on your 95-125watt cpu, apply 5-10$ paste and that's it. You'll never be bothered by the cpu temp.
Im going to use toothpaste from now on :D
Sensodyne would give better results in my test about 10degree but you have to apply twice a day
Also 9 out of 10 youtubers recommends Sensodyne for thermal applications :D
Final outcome, cheap thermal paste is equal to toothpaste. 😂
А что будет с зубной пастой через месяц?
I knew i could just use toothpaste yup saved money
who the hell uses a toothpaste, damn 😂😂 and btw in the video it worked 😂
Gotta use colgate

I don't know why you use your fingers to spread. If you use something more even like a sterile spatula or a sterile clean credit card, air bubbles won't form and better performance. Actually if air gets in, it will create a non conductive bubble that grows in size with temperature. this will minimize the contact area.
Moral of the story dnt waste ur money give a tooth wash to ur prossesor
I don't think 6 to 9 degrees of difference deserves my money
I just order a 2$ thermal paste for my ps4, I already have the money for a ps5 but im waiting a next year for the pro
10€ for a thermal paste is too expensive. It's better to put that money on a 300€ water cooler
It's not recommended that you use your fingers because they may contain grease and other impurities that will decrease the heat exchange of the interface
I Highly doubt using a finger will make a difference because thermal paste is already an oil based grease. Everyone please stop commenting on thermal paste application, firstly it doesn't matter, second its annoying, everyone does it there own way and its fine.
So could whatever your using to spread the paste. Whats your point? Clean hands. Vs dirty tool? It's all relative. What if the person following your recommendation keeps their thermal paste spreader in their tool box with all their greasy tools and metal shavings all over. So if the person just washed their hands. Still a bad idea? Or should I go grab my thermal paste spreader tool out of my tool box?
x vs x thermal pads gpu plis
TOOTHPASTE GANG WE UP 💯
I don't think it's worth buying 20 times expensive thermal paste for 6'c drop
i get the same numbers on no paste for with a paste !!!
That's assuming I have a cpu cooler xd
I think CPU need a fresh breath
I am just wondering. 🤔 How about experiment using a hi-temp grease? Just my weird idea 💡😝✌
Pffff rookie numbers I had a cpu with thermal paste reach 98 degrees under 70 percent load
arctic MX-4 is cheap, long lasting, and good. any other argument is invalid
I always have a chonky tube of mx4 around XD
colgate or pepsodent...?
Darlie
closeup and cpu will kiss you
sensodine
MX4 or Noctua?
Mx4 feels good
Bruh huh idk mine has thermal paste but mine goes to 94 c playing practice map on valo lol
Prosser ke yellow teeth white karne ka tarika paska kabad me bikega.
honestly, you dont need to spread the thermal paste, just let the cooler's pressure do its thing
the cooler not always spread to the edges, making sure to cover the whole cpu is a smart move
you also dont want air bubbles in between them
The cooler spread is outdated now
what if i use... nvm
