IC Diamond is Compared to Other Thermal Compounds In Real world tests

391 Independent users in 11 different forums used their own PCs to test the difference between IC Diamond and other thermal compounds. This independent testing shows an average performance gain of 3.46 ºC over other thermal compounds. .

Users experiencing improvements comment favorably:

"8ºC drop at load, this is incredible."
"I have a 7ºC drop in temps using this stuff. Fantastic!!!"
"I must say from what I've seen so far I'm sold and this stuff is easier to clean up than normal silver based thermal paste."
"Pretty nice gain! Not much change at idle but who cares, saving 3.1C at load is nice considering that most of us, including myself, have spent hundreds over the years to accomplish less."
"Overall temp drop from ASC to IC7 was pretty impressive. I didn't expect extremely high temps considering my CPU isn't exactly highly overclocked. It's even more impressive considering that I'm not producing that much heat and yet I'm still able to see a difference in temps."

IC Diamond 7 Carat Thermal Compound maximizes thermal heat transfer between the CPU core and heatsink by taking advantage of diamond's superior thermal conductivity

Purified synthetic diamond has a thermal conductivity of 2,000-2,500 W/mK compared to 406-429 W/mK for pure silver.

Diamond's five times better thermal conductivity compared to silver makes it a superior heat transfer material for cooling high performance CPUs and is electrically non-conductive and non-capacitive.
