Hello
I have an old laptop from 1998. (233MHz AMD)
Should I replace the processor heat sink's thermal paste with Noctua NT-H1 thermal conductivity=8.9W/mK or will the old grease from 1990s still be good\better ? If I replace it with NT-H1 how long does it last before I again have to add a new paste ?
Do those old silicon and such based 1980/-90 industrial thermal pastes last longer in use ( bigger longevity ) than modern NT-H1 ( shorter longevity ) ? Or do they last the same ?
Do NT-H1 have shorter lifespan because it has bigger thermal conductivity ? Max.cool = short durability.
