Local Source for Thermal Grease - 1voyager1 - 06-29-2018
My new mo-bo, CPU and RAM have arrived.
I'm ready to put my new PC together.
Only problem is that all my computer odds-and-ends are at home under lock down by our guardians.
I need to get a tube of thermal paste for installation of the CPU cooler.
Any possible local sources?

That computer store down the street from Hilo shopping center has it.. I've bought it before there. Don't remember street name.
Edit to add. 261 Kekuanaoa St

Thanks AKn66
I'll check to see if they're open tomorrow.
If not then Monday.
EDIT:
Yelp says they're no longer in business.
I'll try the Phone # to see what I get.

Think they did a remodel in Jan. Should be open by now.

Thanks Akn66,
I found the Holy Grail.
OK, the situation at the moment.
The Computer Store on Kekuanaoa is closed.
The counter top outfit has taken their location.
I think they used to be back further on that street.
I had seen something on line where a gal sad that she had bought them out.
She has Device Repair at 176 Mamo.
I looked and looked, and couldn't find it.
Her shop is in the Mamo Market, or Mall, or something like that along with several other shops.
176 is on a small tab of a sign up near the ridge of the roof.
Anyway, I was able to get a tube of Arctic Silver 5, exactly what I wanted.
Price was a bit higher than Amazon, but I'd have paid more to get it.

Thanks for confirming..I've bought a lot of parts from the computer store folks over the last few years.

mx-4 on amazon. Got it in 4-5 days. Comes pretty quick! Good thermal properties too! Cools down a water cooled 32 thread ripper.
