Ceramique shelf life

Hello, I purchased a tube of ceramique about 2 years ago for my old system, there is still a good amount left in the tube and it has been properly sealed. Do products such as this lose their effectiveness after that long a time, or is it just as effective as it was when I purchased it? Thanks!

As a side note, I have been out of the loop for awhile, is ceramique a good choice for an X2 4400+ that I want to OC? (staying on stock HS/F for the time being)
 
Have you checked the A-S web site? I believe they claim that their goops never go bad. But they can separate if given enough time, so you'll have to stir the stuff up somehow with a VERY clean implement (don't want any foreign particles in the goop). I use ceramique myself, as it is very easy to use and clean up - don't give up much in performance either.

See the madshrimps thermal paste review - just came out in December. Ceramique is in the review. It's not the worst but it isn't what they'd recommend you should buy if you were buying today.
