Ima mod my laptop

Post » Mon Apr 15, 2013 5:27 pm

I think CPU's heatsinks are off because I hear weird noises from out-air flow and HWMonitor says Core 0 is running around 72 C under minor load while Core 1 is 82 C or more and easily tips 90 C (underclock limit, causes massive lag)

I already "modded" GPU's heatsink... Actualy I removed it and replaced with some desktop cards cooling part + silicon paste. Old one was just a 1.5*1.5 cm copper plate attached with paper glue :P

Im wondering if any of you know how to re-attach the heatsink ? For GPU I used a silicon "ring" that presses "new" heatsink towards the core and keeps it in place. Though I dont think I can do the same for CPU...

Also the laptop is pretty big and spacey, Im wondering if its possible to replace stuff like airblow fans....


Anybody here that could assist me :) ? This is a 2007 model so I cant send it "official repair" under waranty. This is just little "something" that I want to do, possibly even OC if I can get rid off any major overheating.
