 Noctua today announced its new NA-TPG1 thermal paste guard for AMD’s latest AM5-based Ryzen processors. When the mounting pressure of the cooling solution is applied, the excess thermal paste will be squeezed outwards. With AM5 CPUs, this excess paste tends to accumulate in the cut-outs at the sides of the heat-spreader and may become difficult to remove. Simple and risk-free to apply, the NA-TPG1 prevents this undesired phenomenon.

Noctua has introduced its NA-TPG1 Thermal Paste Guard which makes sure that the TIM doesn't squeeze outwards on an AMD Ryzen AM5 CPU.

Interesting problem, and interesting solution I suppose.  What's wrong with busting out a paper towel and rubbing alcohol again (or a Q tip)?

Ahhh yes, the Tide Pod generation is building computers now.

The transistor just next to the ihs arent coated i think? So artic silver and stuff like this could kill them.

Thick'n sticky Gelid GC Extrema doesn't squeeze out easily, either.

I'll probably end up picking up one just for the convenience of not cleaning up spilled over TIM.

looks like a simple solution to a messy sticky situation.
