[QUOTE="DeepWeb, post: 700400, member: 63811"] I see you are the OP of this thread. Perfect! [URL='http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/which-thermal-paste-to-buy-and-apply-traditional-and-liquid-metal.806840/']Which Thermal Paste to buy and apply (Traditional and Liquid Metal)[/URL] I have been doing research into the different thermal pastes that are out there. Liquid Metal is obviously the most appealing, but I have zero confidence in my HP laptop to maintain the distance/pressure between heatsink and CPU. It would probably just spill as I move my laptop around. After going through the forums and weighing the pros and cons I went with Phobya NanoGrease Extreme since its strengths match the flaws of HP laptops the most. I'm also not sold on the corrosive effects of gallium on copper heatsinks over time which scared me away from liquid metal for now and I do not plan on opening the laptop again for another 2 years hopefully since HP's shoddy manufacturing barely holds it together and did not intend any consumer to open them. :LOL: [MEDIA=youtube]FW8fgTjHdCo[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
