Reply To: Finished my Mod but temp still odd

[Benjiro]

Yesterday opened up my Book and only one of the thermal pads was making contact with the back side ( so only around 25x25mm ). So that explains the drop in temperature but the lack of large temp drops.

My plan has changed to make the following mod:

Going to install liquid metal for the contact past: Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut Wärmeleitpaste
And also ordered 20mm copper plate because the 15mm really leaves 2mm on the sides not exposed.

So my build will be:

1. CPU/GPU
2. Liquid metal ( with thermal pads around the cpu/gpu cores to prevent overflow until its burned in )
3. 20mm x 20mm copper / 1mm
4. Maybe some past ( not metal liquid, forgot that burns Alu *lol* ).
5. Aluminium Plate
6. 15mm copper inside the depression ( if possible ).
7. Big 3W thermal pad over the whole Alu plate + 7W on the center. More equal divided this time so less pressure and better contract.

Think that will do it. 😉
