Thermal paste

[❄️The Last Frontier 😊]

OK When should I be using thermal paste? I know I had a customer from before the start of the game grumble about the shop not putting it on and demanding I fix it. Did that and the task was done and he was happy again but I also had another customer who only asked for memory upgrade to 16GB and when he picked it up he gave me 1 star saying he would give 0 cause no paste but he never asked for past and until now no memory upgrades seems to give bad review for no paste so when should thermal paste be used??

Anytime you take off CPU Cooling or Replace the CPU, you need to add thermal paste.

Sometimes when PC's are running a bit hot, you need to add thermal paste.

Sometimes when 3DMark is giving CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT error, you need to add thermal paste.

OK maybe thats what happened while it wasn't CPU related could have been one of the other things but being new to the game was unaware
