    Question Does the i3-14100 ihs fit a i9-14900ks chip?

    Hi everyone! I have a bit of a problem. My brother accidentally damaged the IHS (Integrated Heat Spreader) of my 14900KS CPU, and now I'm unsure how to proceed. Here's the backstory: I decided to delid my CPU using the Der8auer tool. After delidding, I cleaned the chip/ihs and left it on my...

    Hello, I'm thinking about using liquid metal on my 3060 Ti (Founders Edition). I tried replacing the thermal paste (I somehow made it worse than before). I replaced the thermal paste with Arctic MX-6, at first the temps were little better but now it's even worse than before. Temps are not the...

    [SOLVED] Conductonaut liquid metal TIM *storage* temperature?

    I built a new rig a year ago with 5900x and Noctua D15. I used liquid metal between the cooler and IHS. I think I may have used too small amount of TIM, or at least the performance was mediocre. Also, I dislike the shifting fan speed. So, I was able to find Arctic Freezer II 420 for $110, and...

    [SOLVED] Liquid metal in laptop only on CPU or both?

    Howdy guys, I'm planning to apply a liquid metal (Conductonaut) in my Asus GL504GW, because it's not rare for the CPU to go up to 95 °C and TT. I've already done a repaste with a MX-4 which yes, decreased the temps by 5-10 °C, but it's still not good enough. The heatsink is of a compatible...

    Question Is it worth it to have a professional replace the thermal paste on my laptop with liquid metal , or should I do it myself ?

    I watched a YouTube video watching a guy replace it on the same laptop as mine but I still doubt my ability to change it without messing something up. Should I pay the £70 required(including the materials required + the man's work) to change it or do it myself?
