Was putting thermal paste on my PS5 APU wrong for 6 months before a buddy pointed out my dot pattern was too small

Turns out I was only covering about 40% of the die with that single pea-sized dot, so my temps were running 10 degrees hotter than they should have been after every repaste. Has anyone else discovered their thermal paste application was trash after seeing someone else's photo?

My pea-sized dot on my PS4 Pro was way too small too until I saw a photo comparison.

Did you try turning up the text size in the system settings?
