    Hi Guys, I did a cooling modification for the Gt72VR 6RE. The temperature of the pch and vrm components decreased by 5 degrees. Aluminum coolers are both sticky and long. It is recommended. However, make sure that the laptop cover is not forced while modifying.

    Looking cool mate!

    What is the size of those small heatsinks that you used?

    But what about PCH crystal? As far as I know its located between motherboard and keyboard section...
