I am wondering if I need to put thermal paste on the GPU for this system? If so, I assume that I can just use standard thermal paste like e.g. Arctic MX4?
CPU: AMD Athlon 700MHz (looks different from normal CPUs, almost like a card but it has quite a big heatsink so I assume the thermal paste...
Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum.
my cpu is almost 4 years old but i don't think that's the problem. a few days ago I noticed that the temperature rose a bit excessively towards 80 degrees (playing team fortress 2 certainly not famous for heavy graphics). But today opening msi afterburner...
Hey, I'm replacing the heatsink in this laptop, but for some reason when I removed the old one, the contact points for thermal paste were all different colors and the CPU one looked like a weird texture. Take a look in the picture
Anyone know why this is? Do laptops do something special with...
am really confused i bought same laptop with same gpu and everything and the only difference i notice was that the 12700h was having lower temp i found this out using the msi afterburner and it confused me alot to why this was the case because i know the 6800h has 7nm while intel has 10nm...
i know the 6800h comes with thermal paste on it but would it be safe to replace it my self in couple of years depending on how long it last and when i need to add more so could i just add liquid metal instead of thermal paste on 6800h though i know its only the 12700h intel version that comes...
does liquid metal last much longer than thermal paste in long term let say would liquid metal be a better choice i know it also might on the brand but let say it was the same brand with liquid metal and thermal paste would the thermal paste have longer run
So, my GPU was having a weird hotspot temperature of 90-100 during load while my core temps were around 70 while gaming. I thought that was strange so I decided to repad and repaste.
I used cooler master V1 IC value thermal compound for GPU die and Arctic APT2560 1mm thermal pad for the rest...
Years ago I spilled some thermal paste (I think it was Artic but I'm not sure) on one of the RAM slots of my motherboard (ASUS Z-97 Pro Gamer).
If there's RAM installed in that slot, the PC wouldn't boot. If there's no RAM in that slot, the PC boots normally.
I was afraid of cleaning it so I...
Hello.
I just changed my computer case. Temperatures usually reach 60/70 celcius at most but since I switched my system to a new computer case and having changed the cpu thermal paste. I have had extremely high temperatures.
I changed the thermal paste again and noticed that the paste was...
Recently I bought a new CPU cooler, and as I was installing it I accidentaly put too much thermal paste and it spilled underneath the CPU, and to make things even worse, SOMEHOW one pin from the mobo endend up bending!!
I didn't notice it soon as I instaled it and tryied turning my pc on...
Hello Tom'sHardware.
I've bought a ASUS x509JB back 2 years ago. While gaming performance was good, temps the same, barely hitting 78°C.
Like 1 year ago, the temps were getting insanely hot (87°C, reaching it relatively easy). I've ignored it, even if it affected my performance a lot since the...
So I got an x53 Kraken AIO and installed no proplwm but then realized that the tubes were on the wrong side so I took it off and reoriented, but since I didn't have thermal paste, I reused the pre-applied thermal paste is that fine?
This has been my computer components, and I never experienced any problem until today.

I want to change the thermal paste and thermal pads on my 2080 Ti Aorus Xtreme. I think to use Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut and Gelid GP Extreme thermal pads. But I have seen users complain about Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut that it dries out quickly. Don't know is it true or not. What do you think...
So i dont really know anything about computers or hardware to be honest.
I recently went to Staples so that they can clean my desktop dust internally, since i have 0 knowledge about computers i didnt want to clean it myself.
When i went to get the computer back, the guy told me he had to but new...
Hello, i received a faulty motherboard so i had to disassemble the system. Now i received a new one, and i am wondering if i can use the same pre-applied thermal paste when putting the cooler back on ?
Thermal paste looks like this:

Hello.
I want to replace my Msi Geforce GTX970 4GD5T OC's thermal paste. Currently the temps goes up to 85C in gaming on 100% power limit,100% Fan speed and 91C temp limit on the MSI Afterburner. And It crosses 90C on Furmark stress test.
I live in Bangladesh and it's really a hot country...
I got a 1070 8GB and i used 1mm Thermal Pads on it...how ever it made my temp's high as in 80-90*C
i looked online and noticed some sources say for ones near the chip set for GPU u need 0.5 and for the for the last 2 u need one 1mm and one 2mm...please let me know if this is all correct? i...
Hello, so let me give you the details.
I have a gaming ASUS TUF laptop(Intel i5-10300H), and bought it about an year ago.
Everything went smooth and well, I have been playing triple A games like Assassin's Creed Valhalla, Biomutant and Death Stranding a lot.
Recently I bought a new SSD (512...
Hello, I just purchased an used Noctua NH-D15s so it doesn't bring Noctua's stock thermal paste, which means I'll have to buy the paste separately.
What is the best one I can get for this cooler hooked up to a 3700x?
Thank you!
After using Arctic Silver 5 for my laptop, and reapplied it with the pea method many times carefully, I've noticed temperatures before a year start fluctuating so I think I should switch over to a new paste.
I'm looking for a paste that will perform very well for many years without needing to...
I installed a new ryzen 5 5600x 3 days ago and used the stock cooler that came with thermal paste. However, I bricked my motherboard when my bios updated and I ordered a new one. Do I need to re-apply thermal paste when I transfer my cpu to a new motherboard? Or should I buy some thermal paste...
I bought an Asus G732LXS-XS94 with an i9-10980hk overclocked cpu in august of 2020. I noticed some gradual changes in cpu performance over the last 6 months. Last week, i noticed my cpu temps were between 90 and 100 celsius just doing simple tasks. At idle it was jumping from 48 to 100 at idle...
To start with, I want to state that before doing any of this, my GPU was perfectly fine, with no odd behavior whatsoever.
I've recently bought a used graphics card (yes, I know) as my previous one had died and I obviously needed a replacement since I couldn't live with a gt 730. Despite it...
Hi,
My 3-month-old computer's CPU has been running hot and I didn't realize until the past week or so. My games were laggy at first and then I started getting overheating alerts when booting up. According to hwHardware It's getting up to 100 degrees Celsius when I play my games and seems to be...

So planning to change Gpu thermal paste..
My question is:
1. Can i use cpu thermal paste for gpu or is there any special thermal paste for Gpu is there in market?
2. Which...
I had to install a new CPU cooler and i when i took the pump off, the CPU came off with it. I accidently dropped the CPU and there might be thermal paste on a pin (not sure). Miraculously the CPU still works, however there is now no sign of audio output.
The microphone still works but neither...
I built a new computer about 2 years ago (ryzen 9, noctua cpu fan) but due to personal things i could not use it. I am finally back home and can use it. However, i'm worried that maybe i should reapply the thermal paste that has been sitting in there for 2 years unused. Is that necessary or can...
Hello all. Just completed a build running a 10900k (turbos up to 5.1GHz) and Noctua NH-D15. Everything went well during the install; put the right amount of thermal paste using Noctua's included NT-H1 and eyeballed it the best I could when it came to lowering the heatsink onto the CPU. Once I...

I plan to remove thermal paste from my CPU and GPU on my laptop.
I'm going to use paper towels to wipe off the thermal paste, and then dip cotton swabs in 99% isopropyl alcohol to finish the job on the CPU & GPU as well as the leftover paste on the heatsink.
If I ever noticed there was too...

so a couple hours ago i changed my thermal
paste from the stock(that’s comes with the h150i) to some mx5 and after booting and idle’ing for a while i noticed my idle temp had dropped by around 4-5°c compared to before the change, i then ran some stress tests for a couple of minutes and i don’t...
Curious - has anyone done this and got better temps for their Switch? How about better performance and fps (up to 30fps, of course)?
I was thinking about re-applying paste on the APU and on the heat spreader and maybe adding thin thermal pads to the ram chips, as well as thicker pads on the heat...
