Changing the thermal paste
  • Unscrew the 4 screws holding the CPU heatsink and the 4 screws holding the fan. Disconnect the fan.

  • Clean the old thermal paste both from the cooler and the CPU. It is best to use isopropyl alcohol and cotton swabs or paper towel, but be careful not to go too hard on the CPU.
