Yo!

 

I have applied LM on my new XPS due to high thermal throttling and it helped a lot however I am shitting my pants to get this thing off my desk.

Did anyone have any LM seeping out of their GPU / CPU into a mobo in a laptop due to mobility of the device?

I have used conformal coating (FSC15ML) on CPU and GPU as well as Super 33+ Scotch vinyl electrical tape (rated up to 110'C)/

Also it is worth mentioning that I have applied very very very thin layer (I could even read NVIDIA whilst it was covered in LM) however that doesn't convince me to use my laptop as a laptop.

Also I have under-clocked CPU by -100mV so that's also a major factor

 

I think having LM on XPS with 1650 is worth risk only if application is the biggest problem because by the end of the day it has to be used as a laptop.

Let me know what you think about thickness of the layers

 

Here are some results:

No throttling at all

that should be fine

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

 

Follow these simple rules in life, and I promise you, things magically get easier. " - MageTank 31-10-2016

I am really on the edge

Use it, only way to get rid of your anxiety.  My only thoughts, and I have no experience with LM, if you are this concerned would be that after a long stint of usage that causes high temperatures - is let it idle down before moving rigorously.  Give it a few minute cooldown period and then go.  

 

Or just use it as a laptop and see if you made the right choice going with LM.
