Hello guys I ordered new PC parts they arrive in Monday but I forgot thermal paste, here I have from the white cheap one, new thermal paste will arrive in 3 days in Wednesday mby is it okay to use it on ryzen 5 1600x with cooler Deep Cool IceBlade 200M til the new one arrives or I should not risk it at all? 🙄
 
It is OK.
Most any paste works, and there is a relatively minor difference in performance among all of them.
Check your temperatures at idle.
If the cooler is mounted well and you have good case ventilation, I would expect to see 10-15c. over ambient at idle.
