I have had this tube of MX4 since 2013, it's served me well, countless rebuilds of my computers, CPUs and GPUs alike, home servers, gaming computers, laptops, games consoles, pi4, I used this on everything. You served me well.
8th June 2013 to 4th November 2023.
That's incredible. I typically only get 1 use out of mine.
Far out, how much you putting on? As far as I’m aware, doing a cross over the processor is all that’s needed
I know it's an animation but the fact that it starts to liquefy kinda weirds me out a bit.
I mean, it's not as much, but... https://youtube.com/shorts/lAy3umbr81s

Oh, so that's why i cooked that one cpu. I applied it wrong!
1 tube per processor but sometimes I get hungry and need 2.
Hey I respect it man.
Even that's a bit much. For normal sized CPUs, a dot in the middle a tad smaller than a pea is enough to cover the IHS.
Idk the tube of arcticnaut I have came with a little wide applicator that I used to just kinda paint the whole thing in the thinnest layer possible with the coherence of the paste being what it is. Squished out a bit over the sides but didn't get around the socket or anything.
Idk what Thermal Grizzly Cryonaut comes with but dammit if it doesn't do the job. I've seen 70C on my CPU once and that was during a video render, a game has never broken that barrier. It's Ryzen Master Auto O/C'd so idk what it would be getting without that boost in performance.
