Damn fine deal.
Been revising a lot of my pcs lately. Switching from AIOs to air and vice versa with all of the not hard drives and ram deals going on. This is what I'm using now, but a tube at Microcenter is like 8 bucks. I can get a lot done with a tube, but it doesn't hurt to have a couple tubes on standby.

What's the shelf life on that stuff?

Why does it say "Best Product Good" on one of the pics?

That's a good question. Some of them (looking at you, "be quiet!" brand!) have a terrible shelf life, and clump up or dry out even before use.

My current open tube is an Arctic, I think, and I've been using it for years. I do keep all my tubes carefully capped and stored in a sealed ziploc-like bag, just to extend their lifetimes.

Important: This stuff is only meant to fill the tiniest air gap between one metal surface and another. The more you use, the worse it will work. And instead of a spatula spreader, it's better to wrap the tip of your finger in plastic film (saran wrap etc.) and then spread it with your soft finger tip.

Good thermal paste. Repasted my Xbox One X with this stuff and it reduced the fan noise considerably.

I can second that my Arctic paste has lasted years.

Damn, this a real nice deal. Don't think I've ever seen this thermal paste priced that low for that size.

Shelf life is great. I kept mine capped and in a zip lock bag too and worked years later without issue when reapplying paste when upgrading CPUs.
