Hi, Im building a rig with the MSI Z87-G45 Gaming MoBo, Intel i5-4590, Hyper 212 Evo, And R9 290 or GTX 780.

Question:
Is the Hyper 212 Evo Thermal paste good, And is it conductive?

Thanks i advance.
 
Solution
Is it good, yes. Not the best but good and safe to use. No cooler manufacturer would want to try to sell their cooler with shoddy TIM. That would make for loss of sales in a hurry.

As to conductivity, it is hard to say because it depends who they had contracted the manufacture of it out to at the time that particular cooler was made. If it is made with metal particles like Arctic Silver, it would be.

Just pick up a tube of MX-4 when you can. In the mean time use the factory stuff.
