As you can see, the results are very similar and too close to declare a clear winner here. I frankly was hoping for a more convincing result, and re-ran the testing with a thicker application of the ZT-100 product. The results were essentially the same, so I think the first application technique is the best. What the results do show is that there is a new rival for the top spot in the thermal paste world and the ZEROtherm ZT-100 is an excellent choice for its intended use.
