    Used NT-H2 thermal paste for the new build with 150W TDP INTEL CPU. It's FANTASTIC! Combined with Scythe Fuma cooler, CPU temperature stays around 30-35 degrees C on different cores while semi-idle and never goes above 46-50 degrees C during stress tests with coolers not going beyond 50-60%.

    NT-H2 has a different consistency than NT-H1 and is harder to work with. It doesn't stick to CPU lid as well and spreading it evenly is way more challenging.

    I am using Noctua thermal paste - NT-H1 for years. For all the kind of CPUs (including 150Watt+ rated), GPUs and laptop chipsets. No matter what is written on the package (2 years shelf life) Noctua paste does not have REAL best before date if stored properly. I bought NT-H1 back in 2016!!!, stored it in a cool place and used again 8 years later (a couple days ago) for repasting hot ASUS ROG STRIX GPU which had factory paste completely dried out and was overheating under moderate load. 8 years old paste looks and feels the same way it did when bought new, brought idle temperature down to around 30°C when most people have around 45°C with factory paste and an hour of afterburner stress test only brought GPU temperature to sub-60°C with coolers working at less than 40%. Noctua thermal pastes are the top tier and very comfortable for working with. Arctic is also solid choice but I do not see a reason to ever use anything else but Noctua.
