On October 2, 2025 (local time), Thermal Grizzly (affectionately known as Fierce Bear among enthusiasts) introduced two new additions to its Minus Pad lineup of thermal pads: the Extreme 2 and High Compression models. The Extreme 2, serving as the flagship offering, is crafted from a blend of materials including aluminum oxide, aluminum hydroxide, and aluminum powder. This composition endows it with superior gap-filling capabilities and a noticeably softer texture. Consequently, it effectively minimizes interfacial contact thermal resistance, thereby enhancing heat dissipation performance. Meanwhile, the High Compression variant is tailored specifically for users seeking to replace the original thermal pads on their graphics cards. Its unique feature lies in its ability to adjust thickness in response to pressure, accommodating the thermal conduction requirements of components with varying heights, such as video memory modules and power supply units. This innovative design streamlines the user's selection and installation process, making it more straightforward and efficient.
