Hey, I bought a tube of Arctic Silver back in January or February and never used it. I assume it's fine, but just thought I'd ask and make sure so I don't end up buying all the components for my new PC and realizing my only tube of thermal paste is . . . idk, dried up or something . . . Clearly, I know nothing about this stuff.

Thanks and have a nice day

should be find if you didnt break the seal maybe but dont take my advice

As long as its sealed and not dried out I think it should be fine. It shouldn't undergo some chemical change that causes it not to transfer heat or anything.

yes, the next ice age.

You should be totally fine, make sure its been at room temp though, thermal paste can handle alot more than sitting on the shelf ...... maybe your biggest worry is it feeling lonely.

as mentioned before me, so long as its sealed, its fine

Yup, it should be fine.
