    So I've only had my laptop for a few days.

    Fired up a game of DOTA 2 and the fans were damn loud.

    Remembering how I saw a P34G repasting video on YouTube, I decided to repaste my laptop and it made a fairly big difference. Temperatures seem to have dropped around 5 degrees, and the fans no longer go full throttle when I play.

    I was surprised by how thick the thermal paste was pre-applied. It was crazy.

    Hi
    That's great to know. I really did not like the high temps these laptops get during normal gaming, and I'm glad that it can be improved a bit.

    What kind of maximum temps do you get now?
    Running throttle stops benchmark of Prime95.
    When you run 3D Mark?

    Thanks

    i would like someone to collect all repasting videos and pictures and info

    im obviously looking to repaste a aorus x5 but my main useful video is the one with the gigabyte p34g.

    what is different is that first there are 3 points not 2, but theres also a 4th point that gets pasted and its the 4 heat pipes meeting at a bar
