Except:
Liquid metal, some kind of really thick thermal goop on the VRAM and VRMs (though some people don't seem to replace that?), and whatever's on the GPU. I've read that the PTM7950 thermal sheets are good for the CPU and GPU which would be easier than replacing the liquid metal.. |
Thermal sheets look easy to apply. I would try that.
