I guess this stuff is blue in color anyone try this stuff? You can buy it on the Kingpin website or Amazon.

I doubt he would put his name on it otherwise. I haven't used it myself but I've read it's thermal conductivity is slightly better than Kryonaut (12.5 W/mK) at 13.8 W/mK
 
Stuff suppose to be pretty good and doesn't pump out like a lot the modern pastes it seems.
 
I like it better than og Kryonaut, supposed to be very similar to Kryonaut Extreme. Very thick but spreads nicely, haven't noticed any pump out on a GPU die so seems to be a great product.
 
Kingpin KPx is essentially tied with Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme in terms of out-of-the-tube just cured performance. There's at least one reviewer or youtuber that sent both greases to a material science lab and they supposedly contain very similar mixtures despite the blue vs pink color.

A pair of major things to keep in mind is that Kingpin's stuff is made in China and at most tube sizes is roughly half the price or a bit less than TG's extreme which is supposed to be made in Germany.
 
King pin is fantastic for overclocking below ambient temps... as far as paste goes there are better pastes out there... I like it for that reason... as for being similiar to thermal grizzly no.. igor labs has lots of data regarding paste

Jayz 2 cents swears by it and won't use anything else lol. I want longevity performance and noctua (I don't use their coolers) paste lasts a loooo g time I essentially never need to repaste my 4090 waterblock or 13900ks waterblock and temps have been good for years and I presume will likely stay the same or close to same. I wouldn't be against kingpin though I might get it next time to be frank he's a cool ass dude and his last four of his place that Nexus did was so awesome I think he's moved to Asia.

I personally wouldn't run kpx unless your going below ambient...it crusts up pretty often...I swear by it, even though there are quite a few that are better ..I like it because it's great to use with liquid metal...I use it more as a barrier around the core when using liquidmetal in the center which helps with hotspots temps
