Artic Silver

[squidgey]

Not that I'm going to eat it or anthing, but I've had some lying around untouched for the last 4 years (opened, but lid screwed on tight) and I was wondering if it goes off / less efficient?

I know it's not that expensive, but why bother if you've already got some!

any ideas?

If its not dried up or anything then im sure itll be ok.

That stuff is meant to last around 6 years in use, so give it a go!

It should be stored with the cap pointing downwards. The material can slightly seperate, so this ensures the silver drops to the bottom and the suspension fluid floats to the top. Therefore you apply to silver to your system not the fluid.

4 years is fine. But, they might have released a better on (for more modern) CPUs.
