Hey everyone, I need some advice from someone who knows more about this. I found some weird stuff on my new item and I'm not sure if it's just thermal paste or if it's something I should be concerned about. It came out of the package looking like this: [link to image]. It seems sticky and doesn't dissolve in alcohol, which makes me think it might be some kind of glue instead. Any thoughts?

Yeah, definitely not thermal paste. Looks more like milk or a juice that spilled. You should try to return it as defective if possible.
No way that’s thermal paste. From what I see, it looks like some liquid dried up. I’d suggest taking it apart and cleaning it up with some isopropyl alcohol.
That definitely looks like some sort of liquid splash, not thermal paste. Given its semi-transparent, yellowish appearance, I’d guess it might be a spilled drink or something similar.
