Hi im not sure if this is the right place to post this topic, just wondering i purchased this laptop, month ago with the i5 10400f i will upgrade it in a future, but when you spec the laptop it gives only option, "STANDARD THERMAL PASTE FOR SUFFICIENT COOLING " does anyone know what kind/brand of paste they use and is it worth repasting with Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, i have some left over from repasting my old laptop,

Also i added 2 more ssd`s 970 evo plus, but they dont have thrmal pads on it, is it worth buying thermal pads because Samsung Magician show 74 C temp on my windows SSD which i believe is pretty high

Thanks.

I don't know what brand they use for the standard paste (I never had the option for Arctic when making my order), but I just re-pasted my CPU + GPU this morning with Arctic Grizzly + added new 1.0MM thermal pads and my temps are looking fantastic. I'd personally suggest seeing how your laptop performs initially before considering a re-paste though!

intresting temps you got there what CPU have you got, is this Idle temps, mine is ideling around 50-55 C,
I had the same temps just a few days ago. Idle temps around high 40's and 50ish degrees, under any sort of stress it'd skyrocket to 90-100 degrees. I had to do basically avoid doing anything remotely tasking on my laptop until I did the following:
  • Intel i7-8700K (CPU)
  • Core Voltage Offset (Intel XTU) is at -0.070V
  • Used a can of compressed air with a nozzle in short bursts to clean out my air vents + fans from dust
  • Used Grizzly Kyronaut thermal paste + Used Arctic Thermal Pads 1.0MM to replace SOME of the the thinner thermal pads already on the heatsink

I haven't got a clue what brand they use however if you have Thermal Grizzly kicking about its definitely worth replacing with that.
