Introduction |
| Use this guide to replace a faulty fan in your MSI GS65 Stealth Thin 8RE laptop. | | | The fan is the main method your device uses to keep the CPU cool. There are two fans on either side of the laptop that blow hot air out the exhaust vents. To ensure that one or both of these fans needs replacement, navigate to the MSI Dragon Center and monitor the fan speeds to determine if they are functioning as needed. If one fan is compensating, then this means the other fan needs replacement. If the computer temperature is above nominal and neither fan has a high RPM rate, then both fans need replacement. | | | In step 8 of this guide, you will need to apply thermal paste to your laptop. To ensure that you do not damage your computer through overuse, please review the Thermal Paste Instructions before beginning. Make sure to power off your laptop completely and disconnect from any external power source prior to beginning the process. |
