Replacing thermal paste.
  • Use isopropyl alcohol to remove the excess thermal paste with a lint free cloth

  • Although isopropyl alcohol isn't conductive be careful with it since its extremely flammable.

  • Apply a small grain of rice of thermal paste onto the CPU die.

  • And you're done :)

  • The next image is how I organised the screws. each section is a different screw type and organised from left to right bottom up.
