Conclusion:
The Zalman ZM-STG1 Super Thermal Grease delivers exactly what it promises. Temperatures on an Intel D840 dual core processor were brought down 3 degrees (or just under 8%), by simply ditching the generic white paste for the ZM-STG1. It doesn't get much easier than that.
Cooler components are generally happier components, so this type of temperature drop should be welcome by any computer enthusiast. HTPC owners, overclockers, and gamers are just a few types of people I could think of that might be looking to get their processor temperatures as low as possible, and the Zalman ZM-STG1 Super Thermal Grease can do it for them with just a few simple brush strokes.
