Check out my sweet desktop! It's got a gtx 1070 that runs at a steady and cool 170 celsius.

    Not something that should be redone all the time, but I would recommend doing it every few years. Thermal paste can dry out after some time, which not only increases cpu temps, but also can cause your cpu to fry.

      Yeah I just swapped out my CPU cooler that I installed on my desktop back in 2012. Temps were going as high as 104 C before that. Now it never gets beyond like 64 C :party-parrot:
