How Much Thermal Paste Should I Use?

Unsure how much thermal paste you should use? Watch as Nick covers different approaches to applying thermal paste.

General rule of thumb is to use 6 tubes of XTM70 per CPU core.

A demo of how to use the XTM70 kit would have been a great addition to this video.

Just bought 50 . Will be testing it soon. On am5 cpu

Apart from thermal paster and spreader, the stencil i would get. much better than just guessing.

I'm gonna try re-applying the thermal paste, hopefully then my cpu will stop overheating

Should you use the thermal paste that comes with the AIO or CPU or get a branded one?

[TheLavac]

If the paste ends were too much and were to come out of the front of the CPU, would it damage it?

You should always use 1000 Liters per square mm. :)

Can I use the template that comes with the XTM70 on an air cooler?

No, put a thick line of paste on one side of the side, then use a scapula to spread it evenly across. The pea-sized nonsense is a thing of the past.

How much? How much? You forgot to make the video on how much, it's just you talking some inanities.
