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

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.

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.

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!

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!

Essential for repasting - even effective against dried up thermal 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.

I didn’t expect to feel emotionally attached to a cleaning wipe, but here we are. I picked up the Noctua NA-SCW1 wipes to clean off some old thermal paste, and wow—these things are basically the VIP spa treatment for your CPU. One wipe and the crusty, dried paste that looked like it had survived multiple generations of hardware just… vanished. No smearing, no weird residue, no existential crisis. They’re perfectly pre-moistened (not dripping, not dry—whoever calibrated this deserves a raise), and they don’t fall apart mid-wipe like some bargain-bin napkin pretending to be useful. It’s like Noctua looked at thermal paste cleanup and said, “Let’s remove all suffering from this process.” Bonus: they made me feel like I actually know what I’m doing inside a PC case. 10/10 would clean again. Honestly considering using one to clean my glasses just for the thrill.

Útiles y eficientes, de muy buena calidad y tamaño para limpiar los restos de pasta térmica

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.

Die Tücher halten was sie versprechen. Die Wärmeleitpaste ließ sich problemlos entfernen, jedoch kommt es auch auf den Zustand der Wärmeleitpaste an. Wenn diese nicht komplett ausgetrocknet ist geht es relativ schnell. Da ich alle 15 Monate meine Wärmeleitpaste (ich nutze immerThermalgrizzly Kryonaut extreme) erneuer ist es wie erwähnt sehr schnell gergelt. Vorallem die Packung hält dadurch sehr lange. Ich habe vor 2 Wochen meine zweite Packung bestellt, da ich nur noch 2 Tücher hatte. Ich habe vor einigen Jahren mir die erste Packung bestellt. Jedoch war der Verbrauch der Tücher am Anfang noch relativ hoch, da die Wärmeleitpaste meines damaligen Laptops relativ hart zur entfernen war, da ausgetrocknet und hart. Seit ich wieder zu einem normalen Rechner umgestiegen bin, was mittlerweile 2 Jahre her ist und ich erst vorkurzem meine Intel i7-13700K CPU ausbauen musste, da ich Probleme mit meinem Mainboard hatte, konnte ich mit nur einem Tuch den einfach zu lösende Wärmeleitpaste entfernen und dazu auch noch meine verbaute AiO-Wasserkühlung von der Paste befreien. Mit einem zweiten Tisch wische ich noch mal über die Kontaktfläche der AiO und dem Heatspreader der CPU um komplett sicher zu gehen, dass auch wirklich alles entfernt wird um die ideale Wärmeübertragung zu gewährleisten.
