      Hello Riley,

      That's not shrinkflation, we sell a specific amount of paste that's in the tube, whether there's also air in the tube that's normal and it's a normal practice for logistics, same happens with potato chips and the like, you get what's on the bag, whether that bag is 10% or 90% full the weight/amount would be as described.

    thermal paste came in a defective state; either as a result of poor shipping practices or poor quality, the thermal paste, though seemingly fine at first, caused me to lose a newly acquired cpu. I've lost a really good upgrade because of this thing.

      Hello Antonio,

      Even with the worst paste or something not even meant to be a paste, a CPU shouldn't be lost unless cooler was installed incorrectly. Please reach out to our team if you require any assistance.

    Way more expensive than other pastes and does not offer much more if anything it offers less did not come with a template for application also the paste is a bit thinner than other pastes making it a messier application

    I needed new paste since the one I had expired, and I trust this brand. My one issue is that it doesn't have the plastic applicator sheets for a LGA 1700 so it becomes messy if you screw up somehow.
