It seems AI is taking over every facet of the tech world, with thermal paste being the latest victim. Cooler Master has just released a multi-colored ‘AI’ thermal paste, called CryoFuze 5 and also claims to use ‘nano-molecular’ technology to deliver stable performance. While it’s obvious that this paste isn’t actually a form of AI, it still offers a range of features that make it stand out from previous releases from the brand. Let’s take a closer look at what this ‘AI’ paste has to offer.

What does CryoFuze 5 have to offer?

Cooler Master’s new line of CryoFuze 5 ‘AI’ thermal paste uses zinc oxide and aluminum powder to provide customers with six different colors to choose from. This feature allows for PC builders to personalize their rig in a range of colors, and although it is certainly unique it’s not the stand-out aspect offered by this paste. What really should be enticing customers, is the paste’s stability and performance across a range of temperatures. The CryoFuze 5 China product page illuminates the paste’s performance, stating that it has a thermal conductivity coefficient of 12.6 W/mk, making it one of the best thermal pastes that the brand has released.

The high thermal conductivity of this paste means users can push their system even further, and if overclocking is your thing then it could be the paste for you. If you’re someone who uses liquid nitrogen to cool your rig, then using a paste like CryoFuze 5 can certainly help your ability to work from -50C to 240C.

The ‘AI’ element apparent in the product’s description is down to its branding. In addition to that, it could be suggested that this thermal paste is designed for the modern AI processors that are dominating the market at the minute.

Cooler Master’s new colored ‘AI’ thermal paste is certainly a unique product on the market, and if you’re an enthusiast looking for a way to personalize your PC with a paste that actually does the job effectively, then this paste could be for you. Its added color options and AI branding are likely just marketing tools, however, its improved performance shouldn’t disappoint.
