I would like to get better thermals on this laptop and Liquid Metal has the best thermal performance hands-down. I do not know if the laptop has a copper heatsink or an aluminum heatsink, however, so I don’t know if liquid metal can be used safely. I don’t have the laptop yet so that’s why I’m asking. I want to buy the laptop and paste together so it will take less time to get up to speed, so I’m trying to figure out if I can use Conductonaut or if I’ll have to go with Kryonaut instead. Not that Kryonaut is bad, but I want the best thermal performance possible from my hardware and Conductonaut is fundamentally better-performing than Kryonaut.
 
Solution
If you don't have the laptop how do you know you would want to replace the stock thermal paste? I would not mess with conductive thermal paste.
