Question Acer nitro 5 an515-58 thermal paste

[rambogancs]

Hello all.

I have an 1.5 year old acer nitro an515-58 laptop with a core i5 12 gen 12500H, and geeforce rtx 4060 8giga Vram. For the first day i own, the cpu temp in medium gaming are 89-95 C. Last week i decided to clean the fan but the temps not changed.

Before i had an acer aspire 5742G and a lenovo legion y520. For both laptop i changed the thermal past with no problem. In this case im worried becasue i read so many thing about choosing the right paste.

Now i own an arctic mx 2 and arctic mx 6, and for the Vrams i have a 1 mm gembird thermal pad.
I read about the mx 6 its not soo god for the cpu. In my case the undervolting things impossibel bcs this type of cpu its locked.

Any advice abput the paste and pad?

MX2 is old, MX6 is the next best thing you have...and quite frankly asking, what other options do you have? Since you've read around, what thermal pastes did you come across as being better options than the MX-6? As for the thermal pads, if you're looking at the highest quality pads, look no further than Fujipoly. Mind you, they aren't cheap and quite rightly so.

You should also rethink your mind set with temps, Intel and AMD have said your laptop's processor will continue to operate at 105 Deg C without throttling.
