Interesting new thing, my CPU temp is jumping between high 70s up to 100 in-game. Need ideas. Thermal paste is almost a couple years old by now

 

What MaxxD said. Or get PTM7950 sheets for maximum longevity.

Yeah, only be careful when removing the heatsink, too much pressure or strain and you can damage the cpu or gpu

Anyone here experienced enough with buying a replacement 3080 mxm?

I am in need of one and some of those ebay listings seem dodgy.

In principle, but it seems that this laptop has a limit on hard drives

I remember someone loaded it with a 4TB SSD and it was fine.🙄🤔

 

I am using it with one 1 tb SSD as a system drive with two more 4tb SSD as a storages . Also often I am connecting external HDD 5 tb each ( some times two or three ) . I do not have an issues with the sound or with shut downs .

Same as the one I used already, and this now is toast. So probably better to go for a different one.

I have been using TG Kryosheet chips for some time, both on CPU and GPU surfaces. It worked for me!

 

In principle, this does not dry!☝️🤗🙃
