be quiet! BZ004 DC2 Thermal Paste 3g 7.5W/mK

SKU CH-HTCJ-0W17N MPN BZ004

High-conductivity 7.5 W/mK thermal paste for CPUs and GPUs, rated from -20 °C to +120 °C, with 3 g tube and spatula for about nine applications

Option DC2

  • 5 W/mK conductivity transfers heat fast between chip and cooler
  • Wide -20 °C to +120 °C range keeps paste effective under extreme loads
  • 3 g syringe covers about nine CPU applications for long-term use
  • Included spatula spreads compound evenly for safe, mess-free installation
  • Non-electrically-conductive formula prevents short circuits on any component

What this paste is

be quiet! BZ004 DC2 is a thermal compound with a conductivity of 7.5W/mK designed for CPUs, GPUs and other chips. The 3g syringe provides enough material for roughly 9 applications. A spatula is included to help spread the paste evenly. It is rated for a temperature range of -20°C to +120°C.

Who should use it

Enthusiasts seeking maximum heat transfer between a chip and an air cooler will benefit from the high conductivity rating. Builders who need an electrically non-conductive paste for safe application around sensitive components are also well served. Users who only need a single, tiny application or who prefer a pre-applied pad on a stock cooler may find the 3g volume excessive for their needs.

Installation and pitfalls

The included spatula makes application straightforward on most processor heat spreaders. Clean both surfaces thoroughly before applying a small amount to avoid air pockets. The paste is non-electrically conductive, so accidental contact with surrounding circuitry will not cause a short circuit. Take care not to over-apply, as excess compound can squeeze out and create a mess that is tedious to clean.

Questions about this item

Do I need a separate applicator tool to spread the DC2 paste on my CPU?

No, a spatula is included in the package for comfortable application.

Will the 7.5W/mK conductivity handle an older CPU that runs hotter than modern chips?

The paste operates across a wide range from -20°C to +120°C, so it manages heat from legacy processors effectively.

How can I confirm the paste is performing correctly after I mount the cooler?

Monitor your CPU temperatures under load; they should stabilise well within the component's safe operating limits.
