Accidentally kinked my heat-pipe. Need help finding its replacement..

[sid18020]

I was trying to clean my laptop fan and replace the thermal compound just because i had some extra left. After removing all the screws holding the heat sink down, I pulled the whole thing off using the heat pipe and that's when it bent a little. I put it back thinking it was not a big deal but since doing so the overall performance of my laptop has been bad and the air coming out of the vents is cool(even under heavy load). I tried finding a replacement but none seemed to match with my laptop. Even looked at official asus replacement parts, chinese sellers. If someone knows a place where i could find the replacement that would help me a lot.

 

My laptop : Asus vivobook S15

Model : S150UN-EH76

Processor : i7-8550U

GPU : MX150 2GB

Memory : 8GB

eBay - but it's not cheap. Might be worth waiting to see if there's a better deal.

Have you tried contacting ASUS directly and giving them your exact model number or S/N?

Contact Asus and stomach the higher price tag. Next time be more careful with delicate cooling

This one won't fit in my laptop because i have a dedicated gpu inside, and this one u linked here only has a heatsink for a cpu.
