That is where I keep mine

I think time would have more of an affect on it as temperature

TBH I started using this because it preforms well at sub ambient temps

AS5 has said non-conductive for a few years. I doubt it has any silver in it at all anymore. Ill look into it more later, but I dont see any way to have a non-conductive paste with silver in it (?)

Edit: Its right there in the description 99.9% silver. I still dont understand how AS5 can have that much silver in it but not be electrically condictive, but Ill keep looking and see what I can find. Ignore me/nothing to see here :) :chair:

Hey Silver. Sorry I got a little sidetracked between work and a gpu I have been trying to mod. Should be back at it shortly though.
 
So after my recent "squirrel" moment I got the Gelid testing complete. The AS5 still has not arrived so I am going to have to figure out what to run next.

I've been waiting to see how the Kyronaut stands up to the Gelid (ive got a tube of the Gelid :) )
 
basically the same best i can tell. Please bear in mind my margin of error is +/- 1 degree.
 
Ok so the AS5 has yet to arrive and I am slightly frustrated in that regard. In the meantime I have the NT-H1 on order as well as some MX-4 so the testing will continue.

I'm hoping that the new kingpin cooling paste comes available soon so that I can get that ordered and maybe do a write up on it for everyone. If anyone see this listed for sale anywhere give me a heads up.

As I mentioned before I am doing some testing for a new startup company as well and should be getting some new formulations from them here shortly. Hopefully I will be able to share some results batch of testing.
 
Ok so I got the NT-H1 testing done and it has not performed were I expected it to based on other reviews. I may need to rerun these test at some point to verify this.
