Obsidian P775TM-1 Maintenance

Hello

 

I had purchased my Clevo P775TM-1 with the RTX 2070 from Obsidian in early 2019. It seems they have since gone out of business. I wanted to do some basic maintenance on this laptop such as replace the thermal pads and thermal paste. I do clean the normal dust buildup in the vents every 4-6 months.

 

I know you're supposed to avoid using liquid metal compounds to avoid it spilling out and creating a short. Would the Noctua NH-1 be a good candidate ?

What thickness are the thermal pads supposed to be ? I haven't replaced them yet, so I'm worried they might have been compressed and measuring the thickness would yield the wrong size.

There is some dust build-up in the speaker grille which doesnt go away when I tried to clean using normal methods such as air can, small vacuum, brushing or wet cloth wipes. Any help appreciated.

 

Any other things I should keep an eye out for when I open it up ? The laptop runs fine, if a bit hotter and noisier.

 

Cheers

Got a P775DM3-G modified to use a dsanke bios and a 8700k with a RTX 2070. Anyway use a normal thermal paste like Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut and you should be good to go. It's easy to do the maintenance to it
