Considering the Intel i9 10850k and 10900 processors tend to be hot processors, 31s idle and 65s at max temperature after several hours of use at almost 100 % CPU (no overclocking via the manufacturer's specifications) ), doesn't seem bad to me with this paste. Not sure if it's a paste, a cooler (Noctua U14s) or just a happy CPU. 2-3 months later; Temperatures appear to be stable and have not changed more than a few degrees since construction. I don't have any other thermal interface reference material to compare to this one on the current CPU and heatsink combo, but it seems to me to be more than enough for a 10th gen i9. This assumes you're not trying to do anything more than a minor overclock or overvoltage. The consistency is easier to apply than arctic products; doesn't feel as thick or sticky. I applied it by simply putting a dot a few millimeters from each corner and on the sides and a small drop in the middle; and installed a cooler. This is the manufacturer's how-to video on the Nocuta website. It is too early to say if this material will hold up over the long term.
