[QUOTE="Draco Malfoy, post: 26934173, member: 570250"] i did once for my laptop after using almost 5 years, & the process was tedious, since then I didn't want to do it ever again. i'm still using that laptop and that thermal pasting was done almost 2 years ago, now it heats like a hot plate again but i still don't want to do it. specially considering the age of it, because last time, when i tried to detach fingerprint, touchpad ribbon cable, cable's end (that tiny plastic piece which helps to attach/remove it) came right off because years of heating and dust has fried it. I couldn't get to work it again. because of all those stuff i built a desktop pc but the power usage is insane. not very efficient to WFH. If I had money i would get a apple lap with M1 chip for Work since it's sealed with no fans inside, i believe it will work for decade without an issue btw: i used artic mx-4 thermal paste, it's go to recommendation of pc geeks if you don't want fancy stuff like liquid metal thermal paste.
