In the photo I see you nmade a kind of thermal mod on the cpu. what did you use and what was the results on improving?

A bit off topic but I used and bought from aliexpress:

• GD900 thermal paste from aliexpress
• Coppershim 10pcs 20mm*20mm*1mm
• Thermal pad 100*100*1mm

I bought the GD900 paste for a much lower prices than currently is available ($5 now $1.70 when I bought). The paste is really good. For 5 dollars you get a lot and you probably never going to use most of those syringes.

The improvements are really worth it. The tablet was overheating without mod and after mod around 60 Celcius.
There was only one problem, a sensor on the motherboard got hotter and the tablet was thermal throttling anyway.
I’m working on a guide to disable the sensor.
