    tbf, I've replaced so much paste for customers n shit, I never had anyone complain about throttling under AC MX
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I flip flop on how expensive it is, 50 bucks if it lasts 2 years meh that's not much money but is like 2C worth the premium?

    I would like to see some long term data on these pastes. Like test then all new, then every six months.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When temps finally spike that's the time to replace the paste.
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    feel free to conduct your tests on the machines I own
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    haven't replaced those pastes in quite a while lmao
  • K3Nv2 @ K3Nv2:

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I only do it when I am upgrading, or it's been a really really long time, like the OG Xbox I owned, modded it took out the clock cap and replaced the thermal paste, (lowered temps like 17C)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    I always replace stock pastes on anything I own (except the Series X due to warranty I suppose and laziness lmao)

    I've seen so many xbox360's with dry paste, just crumbles right off, surprised they didn't burn up.
