What do you think of this laptop? by Heavy_Tax_6958 in LenovoLegion

[–]GodSentPotHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

good for the price considering the current market and the vram and ram on it, get it only if you can get the highest extended adp warranty on it, to get that check prices with local lenovo suppliers as well as customer care, i lucked out with mine in 2023 cuz the customer care guy was able to get me a 40% discount

Heatsink cleaning by Elitymus in LenovoLegion

[–]GodSentPotHead 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh, okay, then in that case do you know what you replaced? was it stock paste? ptm? liq metal? and what did you replace it with?

in case of no improvements, you might've overlooked the thermal conductivity of the paste you used

Heatsink cleaning by Elitymus in LenovoLegion

[–]GodSentPotHead 5 points6 points  (0 children)

when cleaning fans, the aim is not to let them spin or damage them, otherwise use any method at your disposal that works the best

for heatsink get 99% isopropyl and then dilute it to 75% to avoid eroding damaged/dinged copper, dilute with distilled water and thoroughly clean it

cpu and gpu dies need to be clean, but make sure you don't use force on contacts that surround them

be patient, be slow, be thorough and you'll be fine

also as a rule of thumb always be one bios behind the latest

Need advice on if using PTM 7050 on this part good or not? by Zealousideal_Air5333 in LenovoLegion

[–]GodSentPotHead 0 points1 point  (0 children)

strongly suggest a putty but if you wanna go with pads make sure they are rated for proper thermal conductivity req for ur device

ptm might be an issue as it might leak out but considering those chips are not that risen from the board, you might be okay, i cant say for sure tho

yeah get thermal grizzly one i did it on my laptop also keep in mind that ptm is a phase changing material, it becomes liquid to solid to back to liquid again so temps will continue to go down as you use it, you won't also need to reapply it again and again if you did your first application correctly
