DrizzyDraken 1 Posted June 11, 2012 My computer crashed. (for you techies the thermal paste came undone) I'm sending it off for repairs in the next few days. Won't be back for about 2 weeks. Unless my little brother lets me on his computer. Like he is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McNeo 3 Posted June 11, 2012 Thermal paste cost $0.30 and takes 30 seconds to put on -_- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
McNeo 3 Posted June 11, 2012 Wait... Thermal paste is between the CPU (or some other chip) and a heatsink (which is typically also screwed on or attached by some other mechanical means). If someone said "your thermal paste came off" you should have picked your computer and beat them with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrizzyDraken 1 Posted June 11, 2012 The heatsink literally came off of the CPU. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DrizzyDraken 1 Posted June 11, 2012 the screws are fine. the heatsink came off of the mount. If they think it's my fault, then it can cost me up to 300 dolllars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
