Hi, I have an RTX 2060 paired with a Ryzen 5600X. I've been noticing that the GPU is getting to about 75⁰c which I think is fine, but the Hotspot is getting to about 90⁰c. I got the 2060 factory sealed about 2-ish years ago. I'm wondering if it's due to the card having been sat on a shelf for a while before I got it, is it possible the thermal paste is degraded?

The typical gap between the 2 values is approx. 20C or lower. [Observed among multiple posts over the years.]
The temperature limit for the hot spot(it seems to be 110C) is also higher than that of the gpu core(85C).
There's nothing catastrophically wrong with the 2060 at the moment.
