the screws where reallllly loose aswell

Well then, therein lied your problem. The paste also didn't catch the corners of the IHS. Did you use the pea sized dot in the middle method? If so, this is its potential downfall. I like the method of "painting" on a thin layer with a spreader. It ensures full coverage.

One sec. I'll make some adjustments, You didn't specify originally that the budget needed to include a monitor. Give me a few secs to come up with a new build

Again, this one hits all the check boxes. 2700X and RTX 2080. Both best for streaming at 144Hz (outside of going up to the RTX 2080Ti/9900K of course). Still all red. More SSD storage. These parts are ALL on Amazon for the price of $1708. Plus I think the tower is sexy:

I'd say that laptop would be a 4 where the new setup is easily a 10. They aren't even in the same league performance-wise.

It's sufficient. You can move that top fan to the front instead and remove the top filter for an approximate drop of 4C. Or you can add a front fan in addition to the top fan for an approximate drop of 5C. I'd personally go the route of moving the fan to the front and removing the top filter.

Okay so remove the top and put it in the front>?

Oh, one more thing. Make sure you set it up as an intake. As in the fan is blowing into the case. There's arrows on the fan to show the airflow direction.

is the temp good? looks kinda hot. 

I know you can't really see if there is something wrong but any ideas of problems.(nothings wrong just making sure)

I dowloaded windows 10 but i didnt pay for it. It keeps crashing is it because of not buying it?

I think you clocked your RAM a bit too high. 3600MHz is a pretty hefty OC on 3200MHz RAM (if you want to shoot for that you need to loosen the timings). Your vcore voltage is also very high @1.408V. I'm not sure why when you have the CPU clock speed at 3.7. What were you trying to do?

 

Also, no, 41C is not considered hot per se, but it is warm for idle/sitting in the BIOS (probably due to the high voltage). 

 

And no the blue screen is definitely because instability due to the above, not because of not buying Windows.

For now, put everything back to stock settings and do whatever you'd normally do on your computer for a while. Play some games, browse the internet, etc. If it's stable for a few hours you likely didn't receive any defective hardware (although to be 100% sure you could run Prime95 and/or Memtest overnight). So once you determine you're stable, then follow a guide. Here's a good one:

Overclocking is a game of patience and a lot of testing. You may also find that you're happy at stock.
