I going to upgraded my system with an AMD Ryzen 9 9950X.
So what thermal paste would you recommend to get the most out of my 9950X? I'm looking for something that has high thermal conductivity, is long lasting, and is easy to apply.

For a beast like the 9950X, I'd recommend Noctua NT-H2. It's a step up from their popular NT-H1 and performs exceptionally well with high-heat CPUs. It's also non-conductive and easy to clean off if you need to reapply later.

Having used several pastes with Ryzen chips, I'd recommend either:
- Arctic MX-6: Great all-rounder, easy to apply, lasts 8+ years
- Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut: Best thermal performance but costs more
Skip liquid metal unless you're very experienced. The regular pastes work great for the 9950X.
