Do i need thermal paste can i just use tooth paste or something else with paste in the name

 

You can use toothpaste to cool a CPU... It works pretty well actually. Just make sure it doesn't come into contact with socket pins as toothpaste is slightly conductive.

Another kid at my school talking about Gaming Laptops

 

Me: Yeah, if you're looking for the best value for money you should stay away from Alienware, there's a lot of Hidden gems floating about in this country (South Africa) last place you should be looking is the big tech shops.

Him: What labels?

Me: MSI, Gigabyte,Asus ROG, Acer Nitro, and there's quite a pretty powerful Notebook from Lenovo you should look at (Y5070)

Him: I've never heard of those dude! And all Lenovos are trash!

Me:...

Him: I like Alienware and HP (He was referring to the HP Omen which costs about $2600 here, and has the exact same specs as the Lenovo which costs literally half and his HP Laptop with an i7-xxxxU and GT740M that costs the same as the Lenovo)

Me: You realise that the specs are what determines performance, not price?

Him: NOOOO! Specs aren't that important, as long as it has Intel i7 and Nvdia Graphics card (He didn't even say Nvidia right. He said EN-VEED-AH)

Me: You realise that not all Core i7's are the same thing right?

Him: Well yeah there's newer ones and older ones.

Me: *Face-cactus*

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

Link for site pls (specific page)?

 

idk, I just searched "Thermal Paste Comparison" on google images to find this (I knew what I was looking for since I've seen that pic before, just didn't know where)

 

But this appears to be the source

Well yeah, but apparently I was downloading Windows 10 from a dodgy website (Windows Update).

It's a Twitch emote - without much detail it basically renders my whole statement a joke, like "just kidding" would, kind of. used mostly in light-hearted trolling
