Noctua NA-SCW1, Cleaning Wipes for Thermal Paste (20 pieces)

These seem to work well. It's a "detergent" that they say doesn't need wiping off. Not sure... the wipes are EXTREMELY soaked, so while I was using them while the parts were on the motherboard, I squeezed out a great deal before application. So they aren't being cheap with the liquid! Worked fine.

Essential for repasting - even effective against dried up thermal paste.

These wipes work well to clean both the CPU IHS and CPU Fan heatsink ( only 1 wipe needed for both if used effectively). These are great for a clean removal of thermal paste and are great to give around for friends that might need them in the future. One thing that I have a small complaint about is that they can be too wet at times which causes a overflow of alcohol that could leak beyond the CPU IHS, so be sure to see if theres too much alcohol in the wipe before wiping your CPU.

The Noctua NA-SCW1 Cleaning Wipes are fantastic for cleaning off thermal paste. They make the process incredibly easy and efficient—much better than using liquid with a Q-tip or cloth. These wipes are perfectly designed for the job, leaving no residue and making cleanup quick and hassle-free. I’ve used them multiple times while swapping out CPUs and AIO coolers, and they’ve become an essential part of my PC toolkit. They’re easy to use, easy to dispose of, and provide consistent results every time. After trying these, I won’t use anything else. Highly recommend!

These are great, my new favorites, one whipe is all you need when changing the thermal paste, and it leaves the CPU clean and ready for new paste.

The pads clean old paste off CPU and Cooler surfaces but leave a residue best wiped off with a facial tissue or paper towel before it dries. I used WD-40 as it does a better job cleaning but carries the risk of damaging PCB surfaces if it comes in contact with them.

As a computer hobbyist, I find the Noctua NA-SCW1 Cleaning Wipes incredibly handy for upgrades! These wipes are perfect for removing old thermal paste from CPUs and GPUs efficiently and effectively. The wipes are pre-moistened with a custom detergent mixture that cleans without leaving any residues or damaging components. They’re easy to use and maneuver around delicate parts, ensuring a thorough clean. The durable material withstands the cleaning process without tearing. Highly recommended for anyone who frequently upgrades their PC and needs a reliable solution for thermal paste removal!

I bought this to clean old thermal paste from my Mac Pro 6,1 (Late 2013) "Trashcan" GPU and CPU. Theoretically, it is not necessary to buy a product to clean thermal paste, as there are many DIY/store-bought solutions. However, I just wanted an ease of mind, hoping for a simple, lintless solution. This product provided it. Though my thermal paste was not all hard/cracking (still somewhat in paste form), these wipes did a good job removing excess residue. Also, it is not smelly like the Arctic branded ones. It doesn't smell like anything from a table's length. I did not put it on my nose to smell it though (I don't recommend doing that). The only bad thing is that the wipes are super wet. As a result, they take a while to dry. Furthermore, after drying, they leave a bit of a "dried up liquid" residue (see photo). The instruction says it doesn't matter though.

Estas toallitas limpiadoras cumplen su funcion perfectamente, con um dispositivo que la pasta termica esta endurecida (despues de 14 años y sin mantenimiento) con estas toallitas lo pude sacar facil y por el precio yo creo que es un gran precio

I bricked my cpu but these things definitely made it easier to wipe the mess

Very nice 👍

Product works well however

These wipes seem to use a dual liquid formulation. Isopropyl alcohol and something else. The isopropyl alcohol dries quite quickly and there is a second compound that keeps the wipe wet for quite a long time. The material of the wipes is quite strong and does not spread on the sharp edges of small microchips.
