The Lenovo ThinkPad T570 features a compact thermal design where the heatsink and fan assembly work together to manage system temperatures. Replacing this assembly is a moderate-level repair that requires careful disassembly of the internal components. The fan and heatsink can be accessed once all safety precautions are taken and the bottom cover is removed. Proper reapplication of thermal paste and secure installation of the new assembly are essential to ensure optimal cooling and performance post-repair.
