Thinking about liquid metaling my laptop.

The thought of repasting my Asus strix hero 3 with liquid metal has crossed my mind several times, while I havent really made any plans to do it, I do wonder, what general temperature improvements might i see? It runs around 89-90c under load and settles at roughly 3ghz

Specs? Generally avoid liquid metal. It tends to shift and spill in portable devices. Some people go without problems but a bunch have had disaster happen.
