How often change thermal compound grease in the desktop?

I know cpu is of item for paste the grease, anywhere part of the desktop need compound as well? how often had to change the grease.How often change thermal compound grease in the desktop?Only if you take off the cpu fan. The fan will die before the grease becomes less effective.How often change thermal compound grease in the desktop?I am not necessirly sure because you may have other non essential components that require a thermal compund but the cpu uses this compund to transfer heat from the CPU to a heat sink so it doesn't usally need to be changed. I have had a computer that needed no physical repair for 7 years.



Although new processors are coming out that work at increasing speeds which may require some form of maintance your best course of action is checking with the manufacturer of the CPU for instructions and pre-cautions. It is probably either an intel or an AMDHow often change thermal compound grease in the desktop?never, change your whole computer every 3 years.
