Noctua has announced a long-term partnership with Carbice, "a U.S.-based expert in vertically-aligned carbon nanotube thermal interface materials." Noctua revealed during this year's Computex that it will become the exclusive retail distributor of Carbice's carbon nanotube thermal pads.
A dedicated cooling pad for AMD Ryzen processors, the NT-CP1 AM5/4, will be the first Carbice product available to buy from Noctua from September 2026. The Austrian cooling company will also collaborate with Carbice on "future product development" as well. This strategic partnership is what Noctua were teasing last week, rather than a hairy fan as Jacob theorised.
