Thermal Compound Knowledge
Should we replace the thermal paste / compound by ourselves, and when and under what circumstances? Thermal compound is one of the most important factors for PC users. PCs do not like heat, they have a lot of fans and radiators in the computer case, it is more than just a matter of taste. It is true that fans are installed to save heat, but an important point is overlooked by many PC users. Because it is a thermal compound.
No matter how much the CPU fan / Graphics card fan dries, the CPU GPUs under that fan will not be able to withstand as much heat as you intended. Thermal compounds are very good heat transfer chemicals, like the toothpaste you see in this picture. Its role is to absorb heat between the CPU / GPU and the heatsink, which in turn dissipates heat from the fan. Thermal compound is already included as soon as you start buying a PC. You do not have to do anything. But he has a term. Once you buy a computer, you should replace it when it is about a year and a half old. At that point, the original content is starting to decompose. The heat does not flow as well as when you first bought it. As a result, the CPU gets hotter and hotter. The graphics card will also get hotter on the GPU.
