Cooler Master MasterGel Maker Nano Review

Final Thoughts

Price

The new Cooler Master MakerGel Maker should start appearing at retailers in mid December, with prices expected to be £9.99 Inc VAT for a 4ml tube. This should be good for around ten applications and that makes the MakerGel Maker excellent value for money, especially given the premium grade performance we’ve seen today.

Overview

Cooler Master have been working hard this year to bring their brand back to their roots, but also bring their products to the top of the market, showing just how great they can truly be when they focus on what consumers really want. Customisation, modification and performance are to be found in all of their new products and the MakerGel Maker is a prime example of this. When you’re building a high-end, high-performance and overclocked system, keeping your hardware cool is vital. Spending a little extra on a thermal paste that can help you achieve lower temperatures, higher and more stable overclocks and possibly even less noise from your fans, is certainly an attractive idea.

Picking any one of the high-end thermal pastes will certainly suit the needs of many. Gelid have a long history and their GC-Extreme has a well-proven history of being a great product. The MakerGel maker is quite new and still have a lot of independent testing ahead of it, but looking at the results we’ve seen here today, it looks like MakerGel is going to be a big hit with system builders and overclockers around the world. It’s also competitively priced and that’s something that is bound to tip in Cooler Master’s favour, as some of the competing products can be almost twice as expensive.

Pros

• Exceptional cooling performance
• Competitive price
• Easy to apply
• Good amount vs cost (£9.99 for 4ml)
• CPU cleaner included

Cons

• None

“Cooler Master MasterGel Maker is the best thermal paste we’ve ever tested. If you’re looking for a competitive alternative to the more established pastes on the market, this is certainly the way to go.“
