DeepCool EK720-L-1.5 High Performance Thermal Pad
Designed to address heat transfer needs in your PC, the DeepCool EK720-L-1.5 High Performance Thermal Pad caters to situations where traditional thermal paste might not be the most suitable solution due to space limitations or uneven surfaces. Thermal pads excel at bridging gaps between heat-generating components and heatsinks, and the EK720-L-1.5's 1.5mm thickness offers a balance between space efficiency and thermal transfer capability.
The EK720-L-1.5 utilizes a material boasting high thermal conductivity to efficiently transfer heat away from your components and towards the heatsink. This promotes optimal operating temperatures and prevents overheating, which can throttle performance and damage hardware. DeepCool emphasizes the pad's flexibility, allowing it to conform to moderately uneven surfaces and establish better contact between components for improved heat transfer. Safety is ensured by the pad's electrical non-conductivity, eliminating the risk of electrical shorts if it accidentally comes into contact with circuitry.
Key Features:
- High thermal conductivity for efficient heat transfer between components and heatsinks
- 1.5mm thickness suitable for applications requiring moderate gap filling
- Flexible design conforms to moderately uneven surfaces for improved contact
- Electrically non-conductive for safety
- Gray color
FAQ:
- What applications are suitable for the DeepCool EK720-L-1.5? This thermal pad is ideal for filling gaps between components that utilize heatsinks, such as voltage regulators, memory modules (particularly thicker ones), and some solid state drives (SSDs).
- Can I use the DeepCool EK720-L-1.5 instead of thermal paste for my CPU or GPU? Thermal paste is generally preferred for CPU and GPU applications due to its superior thermal conductivity and filling capabilities. The EK720-L-1.5 might not be thick enough to fill the larger gap between the CPU/GPU heat spreader and the heatsink.
- How does the DeepCool EK720-L-1.5 compare to other thicknesses in the EK720 line? Deepcool offers the EK720 in various thicknesses (including 0.5mm, 1.0mm, and 2.0mm) to accommodate different gap sizes. Choose the thickness that best suits the space between your component and heatsink.
