The Rise Ultra Soft thermal pads are Alphacool's performance-oriented solution in the field of thermal interface materials, as they can be compared to thermal paste due to their outstanding properties. The Rise Ultra Soft thermal pads conform much better to components, which significantly improves cooling performance.

The material of the Rise Ultra Soft thermal pads acts similarly to thermal paste. The consistency of the pads prevents the highest components, such as voltage regulators or VRAMs, from being subjected to increased pressure from the cooler. In the worst case, this can lead to the PCB bending. The Rise Ultra Soft pads fill in unevenness much better, conform more closely to the components, and thus greatly enhance the heat transfer between the cooler and the component.

Additionally, the special material does not dry out.
