old arctic silver

[Tash]

I have small plunger of original Arctic Silver - maybe five years old. It should be ok to use, shouldn't it? I am using it on a P4 2.6 Northwood with no overclocking.

Thanks.

It SHOULD be fine, but I would reccomend spending the 10 bucks for some AS5.

May depend how you stored. IIRC, if you store it "standing up" it supposed to last longer. Just have a look at it and make sure the components haven't seperated.

Squeeze a little out...if the components are separated, squeeze more until it is uniform. Then use it.
