That is the full extent of the technical detail available here: the supplied page text is Tom's Hardware navigation and premium-subscription boilerplate, with no paper title, journal, sample measurements, baseline material, or researcher names. The 40x figure and the self-healing claim are stated in the headline only and are not backed by any method or data in the excerpt. Why: For a software, data, or SaaS audience this is close to a no-op — nothing here changes a stack, a deploy, or a product decision. If you work on thermal design for embedded or edge hardware, note that the '40x' has no stated baseline (40x versus what: air, plain silicone, copper?) and no measurement conditions in the available text, so it is not citable in a design doc yet.
