Hi folks, I just received a new ASUS laptop and noticed that there were a couple of minor scratches (pic below) on two of the heatsink fins, where some of the black coating has been removed (if you look at the other fins they are fully coated)... Do you think this is an issue? Should I keep...

Hello! I am currently working on revamping an old HP G6 laptop as the title says. I want to change it's current i3-2350m to an i7-2620m, and according to the manual, that should work. My worry is that the heatsink/fan may need to be changed; but they're both intel chips, so can I just switch...

Hi! I've had major heating issues in my K53 Asus which is about 4 years old. Even idle CPU and GPU are at 85 C and sometimes go to 100 C. When gaming my FPS gets throttled, but Afterburner confirms that none of my systems are peaking out, instead getting flat lined. I have a manual for...

So a friend of mine gave me her 17" Dell Vostro 3700 Laptop to fix. It was getting very hot, almost too hot to touch, the fan would turn itself on and off, then it would go to the blue screen of death. All within about 10 minutes of start up. After doing some research, I found that these laptops...

I recently bought a Compaq Presario SR1417CL and the heatsink above the processor came off and this little black tab that holds one of the arms (not very good with part names) came off the board and I can see the two holes it would go in. Do I just got ahead and press it back on the board or do...

Opening up an HP notebook and removing the heat sink I see what I think is a CPU (because it has pins) but then I read that AMD E-300 APUs are soldered into the laptop (I do see another chip soldered not too far from what I think is the CPU). I'm a noob with computers but any clarification would...

So this is a Samsung laptop, i5-2450M @2.5 GHz - stock - with up to 3.2 on turbo boost, or something. I have had this laptop for close to 3 years, and in the last 1-2 months, game performance started to get real bad, horrible FPS drops and whatnot. Turns out my CPU is running at ~70ºC AT IDLE...

I have a gaming laptop, actually more like just a multimedia laptop. I brought it to the service center one time to have my RAM and SSD upgraded. The technician (who seemed to be not in his proper state of mind), lifted a foil-looking sheet inside my laptop. He seemed to have realized this...
