Final Thoughts

Well, in the end when it comes to thermal compounds it really about how much impact it has on the heat reduction. There are reasons to buy fancy thermal compound, certainly when you are an overclocker who wants to squeeze as much performance out of the system as possible. So if you are after that then you better go for the best thermal grease you can get your hands on. The main goal of all the manufacturers of thermal compounds is the same, delivering the best compound meaning the best heat transfer between two components. In our case between the surface of the CPU and the heatsink sitting on top. So with a tiny layer of thermal compound in between the two, you can actually increase the thermal efficiency and heat transfer. This comes down to better cooling and reducing the temperature.

Looking at it from that angle the lower the temperature can be the better for the system as a whole and will offer greater stability in return. If we take that into account with the Tuniq TX-2 thermal grease from Sunbeam we can clearly see a nice advantage over the reference Rosewill compound and the other brands we put against it. The Tuniq TX-2 compound is a more advanced version of their previous TX-1 compound and that shouldn't really be a surprise. Sunbeam did go a step further and developed a better version of their Tuniq compound to of better quality and provide increased cooling efficiency. On top of that, this thermal compound is compatible with all the bases and the quantity is just right. After having applied the Tuniq TX-2 compound our system did report lower temperature and excellent stability.

So if you need increased stability, higher overclocking or just lower temperatures then look no further and go for the new Sunbeam Tuniq TX-2 thermal compound. It does come in a neat package, is easy to apply and gives instant better performance which improves with the every passing hour. We recommend this product to any consumer seeking to edge out a few degrees and help in running the CPU or any other electronic component interfacing with a heatsink cooler.
