Change thermal paste/pads on Laptop

[SNeel]

Been looking to improve the preformance on my laptops CPU because of the thermal throttling.

When I opened my laptop to have a look I noticed that the factory used something that looks like some kind of paste on the other components, do anyone know what type of prodoct is it? Can I replace it with normal thermal paste or pads? Or is there another product that could be better?

 

Thankful for any advice!

That picture is so bad I can't tell if it's French toast or porridge.

Yep,It's difficult to see anything,

Even old analogue would have a much better quality since unlike digital - analogue is scalable.

As long as you have the original film you can use modern technology to produce high res images out of it,for example (picture taken in the 1860s - Meiji restoration):

Hehe, I can take a new picture, since this is just a part of a picture I took for another reason... But to describe it, it looks like a thick copper coloured paste. Almost looks like chewing gum.
