Carbice and Noctua Partner to Bring Advanced Thermal Pad Technology to DIY PC Builders

The maintenance-free carbon nanotube pad is designed to keep CPU temperatures stable and reduce reapplication needs as memory upgrades become more expensive.

  • On Monday, June 1, 2026, AMD announced its relaunched 10th Anniversary Ryzen 7 5800X3D chip now ships with the Carbice Ice Pad, marking the first time consumers access advanced carbon nanotube cooling through a mainstream CPU provider.
  • The Ice Pad uses vertically aligned carbon nanotubes as a maintenance-free, peel-and-stick alternative to traditional thermal paste, preventing performance drop-off and ensuring consistent thermal efficiency throughout a system's lifetime.
  • Noctua will exclusively distribute the Carbice IP90 thermal pads for DIY PC builders, bringing aerospace-grade carbon nanotube technology to individual consumers worldwide for the first time.
  • The NT-CP1 AM5/4 thermal pad will be showcased at Noctua's booth at Computex 2026 from June 2nd to 5th, with retail availability beginning in September 2026.
  • By maintaining consistent performance over time, this technology helps extend the life of existing PCs, offering consumers an alternative to costly hardware upgrades as memory prices rise.
