Whenever you have your cooler off for maintenance or your temps are starting to go higher then usual.

I am the one who goes bump in the night... usually making a sandwich.

My question was that when should i change my thermal paste. I am having NZXT kraken x61.

 

Welcome to the Forum!

 

Thermal paste can last usually a good 3-5 years before it starts drying out and will need replacing but as Bosco said if you take off a cooler you want to reapply new thermal paste everytime, be sure to clean the surfaces with isopropyl alcohol before applying the new paste.
