Posted November 30, 2020 Hello! My laptop is running way too hot, idling CPU and GPU at about 70 degrees celcius. Needless to say, I think its time I repasted them, but I'm not too sure about which thermal paste to go for (this is my first gaming laptop), I usually just use desktop PC's and don't know if there's any considerations to take. I'm looking to get my idle temps as low down as possible because the fans are driving me crazy. And yes I've cleaned out the fans for dust and updated bios / drivers etc. Cheers! - Moz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want the best non-conductive thermal-paste https://www.thermal-grizzly.com/en/products/16-kryonaut-en this is one of the best ones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
