I yesterday removed my cpu heat sink si I have the dried thermal paste on it
So can I put in back my heat sink with the dried thermal.
Or is it compulsary to add new paste
You should definitely remove the old and add new thermal paste. The paste dissipates heat through bonding between 2 pieces of metal. The old thermal paste will not touch the cpu cooler at all locations anyway...
