Hello
I usually use MX-4 Arctic or GD900 thermal paste not only for Kronos, but for any electronic hardware. |

Okay, I must confess that I had to Google thermal paste. Is this something else that every Kronos owner needs to worry about?

Not at all. I kept several computers for more than a decade and none of them ever overheated. The only PC which needed CPU heatsink paste maintenance is my current one because I use it extensively for video rendering, which implies a lot of CPU (thus creating lots of heat) and after 10 years I noted it was time for some new heatsink paste. In comparison, the Kronos will never reach such temperatures, unless you constantly play it outside under equatorial sunny weather.  |

Awesome, that’s what we needed to hear. Thanks 😊
