Pros & Cons
Pros
Cryofreeze violet works well on an i5-10200 laptop processor. Temps down to peaks of 86c and idle to 38c at same ambient temp and load levels as before. On a 4790 in a hp z1 g2 as a test, it's done a great job bringing the temps down from the mx4 i ha... Read More
The line method seems to be the easiest if you have a high clamping force heatsink. I usually use a pea dot in the center, but you must spread this thermal paste in order for it to cover the entire cpu.
Cons
Dried up putty but doesn't spread. Thick consistency of paste makes applicator hard to hold and apply even amounts. I feel the applicator needs to be redesigned.
The thermal conductivity is only. Which is bad since i have a custom loop with dual 240 rads. Better stick to arctic mx-5. The compatibility with various components is questionable.
This reflects more on the seller or distribution center selling old stock than it does the product itself. It's a shame because this was sold and shipped by amazon.
Was totally un-useable. Not even worth sending back so it got trashed. Complete rip off.

Price
Worth the price to protect your investment
Cheap and i saw dramatic and amazing temperature reductions as advertised
Price was okay and good for my needs
I was hesitant to buy it at first because arguably the price put me off and so did the reviews its dry its thick its not tacky
Packaging/appearance
Included in the packaging is a cleaning pad and a plastic tool for spreading
Competitiveness
Once its on the temperatures are great easily rivaling what ive seen from kryonaut
Omg did the mastergel maker make a difference
You can if you want opt for the non violet version of cryofuse and get a little more performance at least 1wmk better check pro... Read More

However if you prefer to spread the product on a cpu with a spatula tool that is very difficult due to the products thickness it is very difficult to move without a mess and possible air pockets once applied and you wont be satisfied

Once its laid down out of the applicator its down for good or you need to restart

It was slightly strange applying this thermal paste as it seemed quite a bit thicker and more viscous than paste ive used in the past
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
I ended up using an x pattern because i wasnt sure about how this paste would spread

At the end of the day the thermal paste you use doesnt make a big difference in performance but this has been running my ryzen 5 5600 with a hyper 212 black a little bit cooler than it did before i had changed the paste
