Can Upsiren PCM-1 Compete with Honeywell PTM7950?

In this video I test Upsiren PCM-1 as well as Honeywell PTM7950, along with Arctic MX-4 and Upsiren UTG-X thermal pastes for reference. Both PCM-1 and PTM7950 are Phase Change Materials that start to melt around 45 degrees Celsius and then become easy to compress and squeeze out excess. This allows for a very thin layer of Phase Change Material to remain between the CPU/GPU and the Cooler I will also be making some upgrades to my test bench to be able to log Ambient temperatures more accurately using HWINFO64. This will make testing easier, and more accurate. Test Chart Repositiory: https://drive.google.com/drive/folder...
