How long will this item last for a computer repair technician? Will it finish fast? As the tube looks so small.

Its actually a very large tube when you see in person. I think there's enough for about 30+ applications I've applied this paste about a dozen times and I haven't even used a quarter if what is in the syringe.

Get the 20 gram tube, it should last you a while as its a good deal larger than Arctic Silver. I too am a system builder that specializes in servers and high end graphics workstations. This last tube of MX-4 has lasted me over a year so far, and has an 8 year durability rating (the amount of time this stuff is suppose to last once applied to the desired chip). As far as shelf life of the stuff, hard to say, but should be considerably longer than the durability rating.

Depends on the usage, but it's safe to say it will last a very long time for personal consumption.

The tube I ordered is 20 grams, 3" long and 5/8" wide. If used correctly it should be good for at least 36 instances to seat cooling fans on processors, maybe more.

The one I had before lasted over 5 years. I did have to replace the tube as it broke where it connects to the housing. I just ordered a replacement and with a bit of effort was able to fix it myself. And I am not mechanically.

I treated some electronics with it and they were fine, but I didn't treat a computer. I'm not sure if that would be okay or not. Loading it is very quick and easy, you just want to make sure there is space around stuff so that the heat gets to everything. It takes about 6 or 7 hours, about 5 or 6 to get up to temperature and then another hour that everything should stay at that temperature. Hope this helps.

We used black. It's very tacky out of the tube. We often call a companies tech support. They can sometimes be helpful, not always. They could comment on mildew and discoloration st the least.

My old lap top is still working .So i have not had a good chance to work with it.I thought my old computer was going to die and that,s why i purchased it

It only gets long if you adjust it to be less wide. It's an X, so the working parts affect one another. So if you have a wide computer, it will NOT be long. Hope you can understand this!

I have used mine quite a lot and it still looks like I never even used it, so I would say it should last a long time!!

I'm not sure entirely, but the computer will complain if they are too old (planned obsolescence). They have lasted for anywhere from 1.5 to 2.5 years has been my experience.

Before I moved, I cleaned out my files and used mine for 4 hours. I would have to stop and empty it, but used it pretty continuously.It still works. I just wish it were larger.

Hope this helps! www.KatrinaSellsChicago.com

No, I don't think this is the right thing for the job. It comes off too easily and would be driving you crazy with having to constantly replace the rubber feet due to loss. You would be better off using some type of glue, something that would harden into a permanent fixture as you are hoping for the feet to remain there. Check the adhesives section at the local crafting store and talk to the clerk there. They can advise you as to which would work best and not harm the computer in any way.

Probably the same amount of time as any other make-up. I don't know, I've not had mine long enough to know. But I have one from May 2013, and even now it still works great. It is a pretty air tight tube so that helps.

Well first of all --- I do not know anything about computer repair like the size screws and fasteners. But seeming the size of computers I think this would be overkill with the torque ( even though it's adjustable with 20 settings) and the size of this PS22 drill / driver. Go smaller.

The best I can do on this is to say that you will need to send for repair. I personally do not keep anything on my computer permanently-like maybe two days. I use external drives. Again it is the price paid for light weight. The only time I do not have another computer is when I travel internationally. Otherwise I can send it in and use my other computers. The Acer website has support info on service. There is also an international site. I have sent desktop computers in for repair so this is similar. I would say that you should follow their suggestions in the manual for conditioning the battery so that it lasts longer and performs better. I will just have to pray it is ok while traveling internationally. The best I can do on this is to say that you will need to send for repair.

I finished 2 tubes already and it's been more than a month since I fired used it and I don't think it's even working :( I have them a very honest review a few weeks back..

It can be cleaned as needed when scaling becomes visible inside . Or every year when the salt computer calls for check cell. At some pointafter 3-4 years maybe 5. The cell will be worn out and will require replacement. No getting around that. Thats the part that does all the work and like a belt in a car will need to be replaced.
