My GPU still gets a little warmer than I would like.
The below is my current cooling setup and I was wondering what I can do to increase the GPU cooling. It gets up close to 90-95C and I would clearly like it below 85C if possible. Is there anything that can drop the temps more?

Have long have you had the system? The paste on the GPU could've dried out and needs reapplication.

I've had the system roughly 1 year now and do game on it pretty heavily (at least 3-4 hours a night). I have never applied or reapplied any thermal paste to this system. Is there a preferred thermal paste to use on the GPU of a laptop that is a 1080?

I've heard good things about Cooler Master MasterGel Maker Nano.

Check this site out in regards to W/mK rating.

W/mK definition:
Thermal conductivity W MK higher Better
The R-value is a measure of resistance to heat flow through a given thickness of material. So the higher the R-value, the more thermal resistance the material has and therefore the better its insulating properties. λ is the thermal conductivity in W/ mK.

Kryonaut is great on desktop heatsinks but Maker Nano I recommend for anemic pressure laptop heatsinks if you aren't using liquid metal. -

Check paste, check fans for obstruction and whether they're coming on and spinning up to max speed when necessary. If your repaste is recent, check to make sure the heatsink is tightened evenly. ICD should fill most gaps but if the thickness isn't uniform it may not perform well.

I do see that this Coollaboratory Liquid Pro Thermal Compound Paste Grease on the review page listed above has some of the best thermal conductivity at 82W/mK.
If I were to get this per say, and being a first time applier of this myself, does anyone have some "must knows" or "tricks of the trade" so I don't **** anything up?

Any way to lower the GPU temps on the MSI EVOC 16L-G-1080
