At present, I use a cheap local paste but I want to get a good one.

I can't decide between Arctic silver 5, Cooler Master Pro and Noctua NT-H1.

The Cooler Master Pro is cheapest for me, then the Noctua and then the Arctic Silver.

My GPU is reaching high temps like 83°C while gaming and the cooler master paste is out of stock so I kinda cannot wait for long. So pls tell me what should I do?

Help please.

Thanks for reading :)

Get the cheapest if your tight on money, 90% of them perform basically identical.

The only requirement you NEED to insure is that the thermal compound you want to buy IS NOT conductive. You could damage your GPU if you use conductive thermal paste. Fortunately most thermal compounds are non conductive, but still make absolutely sure it isn't conductive.
