Ah btw, the thermal paste is only supposed to fill the microscopic surface gaps, so please add only a tiny bit and don't spread it around (creates air bubbles while adding the sink). A rice grain worth in size and form in the center is enough. This also presses the air out on fastening the sink.
What is rice corn? An image search just shows me corn kernels mixed with rice.
Sorry, i meant "rice grain". It's Reiskorn in german, the Korn being the grain. One of the same word, different meaning pitfalls. Corrected it.
Oh, that’s interesting! I’m not very familiar with German, thanks for sharing!
