Over the years, I've heard numerous stories about thermal paste drying out after a few years, and that it would effect temps. Is this really true? I have a medium level 5 year old W10 build, used for routine computing. HWinfo 64, has shown idling levels at 32 to 35, all this time, and 72 under stress. These numbers have not changed over the years.
Usiing Noctua, don't remember which one. Any reason to remove and reapply, and does the paste really dry out?
