I recently assembled a computer a did some testing with cpu stock fan and water cooler: corsair h60.
Long story short, I had some issues with temperature which I found too high, so I replaced it, changed the paste with the only one available in this country (cheapest stuff available) and used it for a week without issue, consistently monitoring it. (40 idle, 60-70 gaming)
Today when applying the new paste I ordered (cooler master mastergel) I noticed two or three tiny holes, the size a pen tip on top where the paste is applied. I should have taken a picture I know but in hurry I just put the new paste and started everything again. The temperature is better than before, my worry is that I cannot find anything online regarding those holes, it was certainly not holes that were there before. (30-40 idle, 60-70 gaming).
Nb: I live in southeast asia and this is the hottest month of the year.
