I dont know what this called but i didnt replaced it. Sometimes ı let the pc running for days but today ı smelled something and after in about 1 minute windows got logged out and logged in again idk why. It smelled only about 1-2 minute. Can this be caused that? Also what's the name of this paste I want to replace it just in case

I think you're talking about the thermal pad, but I have no clue what i'm looking at

The thermal pad that's loose is for the memory chips, which should be okay since they have airflow over them, same goes for the VRM's, but have no clue how all that would perform when overclocked, but I don't think the burning is because of that thermal pad, there's something else, if you really think something is burning stop using your PC immediately and figure out where that smell is coming from
