I would like to know how long it will take before it's time to replace the thermal paste?

I've never had to replace thermal paste - as long as you apply the proper amount and have sufficient cooling, this should never be an issue.

By the time you need thermal paste in about 5-6 years, you'll need a new computer.

Look at all these nay sayers Potato Hog... all theses Debby downers raining on your parade


Your not a carbon copy of elric your just healthy coexisting competition... your the Sony to his Nintendo, the BugerKing to his McDonalds, the Kmart to his Wal-Mart...


Heres a question I will ask you and I really would like the help of someone since im not computer savvy at all.... So i bought Rage during the steam sale for $5 and it said online that Bethesda specifically worked with Intel in the development so it will work with Intel HD 3000 graphics but when I load it crashes on startup... help me PH

I meant for the Wii U.

[BrosBeforeGardenTools]

I wouldn't do it, change the thermal paste on the Wii U that is.

And Mitch, I don't actually know the answer. Sorry. Integrated graphics can be choosy.

I have already tried unchecking the steam box... and i go to intel toupdate my driver and it says this

"A customized computer manufacturer driver is installed on your computer. The Intel Driver Update Utility is not able to update the driver. Installing a generic Intel driver instead of the customized computer manufacturer driver may cause technical issues. Contact yourcomputer manufacturer for the latest driver for your computer."

I hate when they do crap like that - more reasons why I build my own machines

....So my computer says that the driver is up to date but intel says its out of date and toshiba has nothing...

Wow. Out of the 80% of things I have informed opinions on, people keep asking me things within that 20% I don't want to answer or don't know.
I'm doing alright, I guess. Let's leave it at that.

Your custom drivers for the Toshiba are up to date, but they update far less if ever compared to official Intel drivers. By replacing the Toshiba driver with Intel's you risk having conflicts with software / hardware that use the specific driver. It's a catch 22.
