    Toothpaste does work as a thermal paste. It's as good as the cheapest local unbranded thermal pastes(not good). But it does work up to the extent that the pc might not shut down due tu offer heating.

    I once did it on a machine. I was genuinely out of thermal compound. Still working. 😁

    I did this once for a stupid video on how to not build a computer. Went all out and installed Linux Mint.
