The problem is not whether they become clay or powder. It is that they dry up too fast for my liking. I'm a lazy person, dun like to keep having to reapply my thermal compound. :o

Anabond, never seen any dried Anabond.

It's near perfection, well balanced between cost, heat dissipation and service life.

If i were you, i whack bigger tubes liao.

Thermal paste just keep spare. Buy a good zip lock bag, put the tube inside, zip it with small openings, roll it up till the end, lastly close the remaining small opening.

Store it in cool place with no direct sun contact.

Although this method still will cause the thermal paste to dry up, but it will not dry up as fast as compared to no zip lock.

Iirc my prolimatech good through 2 years. Still moist.

Yup. Let's see if I can get free shipping once I total all my purchases and send over to his hotel. Else if the tube alone I'm better off just getting it from SLS :)
