does anyone know a good thermal paste for gpu's since i noticed that the temps of my gpu is slowly going up and its a 2/3 year old card so its logical that the paste might be drying out.

i see on different forums that alot of people are recommending artic mx-4 but what other kinds off thermal paste can i use?

As long as it's a non-conductive paste it will work, but some good ones are MX-4 as mentioned, Thermal Grizzly, Gelid Extreme, NT-H1.

TBH after 2~3 years fresh paste will make a difference the actual name of it does not really matter that much, as long as it is one of the named/known about ones not a cheapo knockoff no-name one.
