I finally saw why my old thermal paste was causing random shutdowns after a clean install

The paste on my personal rig had dried out and cracked, causing poor heat transfer that only showed up under a sustained load for about 15 minutes, so has anyone else had a paste fail silently like that?

Ever find old paste stuck like cement on a cooler?

Wouldn't a bad paste just throttle, not shut down?
