Beware of fake Thermal grizzly

[Space Lynx]

Amazon comingles products between 3rd party and their own stuffs.

I just buy directly from the manufacturer these days: usually books. Or I buy from an actual shelf: in-person stores have assurances that their supply-chain is legitimate. Amazon doesn't (and I bet that most online stores follow suite to be able to compete against Amazon).

Online is about "messing up on occasion", and then offering refunds. Amazon has good customer service, but it leans on it too much to make things right. Amazon really needs to work on making their supply-chain more legitimate, especially for stuff like computer parts (where we care very deeply about authenticity and specs).

that works too. I actually bought my 5600x and rx 6800 directly from AMD.com

I can't stop laughing at that you were the same guy that bought the fake mx-4

I couldn't imagine that people are so desperate to make counterfeit paste. I still couldn't grasp fully how they earn from it.

Very subtle differences in packaging. For comparison, mine is original and the code registered successfully:

It should be noted that the "original product" logo has a chrome appearance and the font is different.

For the record I don't even like Kryonaut. Yeah the temperatures are very good but it's just so frickin expensive and you get a laughable quantity of TIM.

Even on the original they make the mistake of calling it a "grease" instead of paste or compound.
