Thank you for the video Chris! Could be nice if you would say the difference in temperature of the CPU before and after replacement! Thank you again, nice laptop still in 2023!

Good point! It is hard to quantify whilst various apps are running but my idle temperatures went from in the 50 C range down to mid 40 C range. It was certainly an improvement which meant that the fan was that much quieter. Also, it is rare that the CPU hits the maximum 95 C temperature now, by which time it would be thermal throttling!

Disconnect the battery FIRST! Arctic Silver 5 is not a good thermalpaste any more.

LOL - that is not required. What do you think the battery is going to do!? Explode? Also, Arctic Silver is fine, a much better upgrade to what was there from factory!

Hey Chris, does the PCH (beside the main die) also need to be thermal pasted?
@ChrisHorswill

If you can it is always worth it, but you may be able to see from the video that my heatsink had a cut out for the 'other' die so didn't seem to make any contact. I believe that the GPU (Intel® HD Graphics 520) is integrated into the CPU.

@@NoName-eq9md It's the PCH (platform controller hub) that's supposed to be running at a much lower temperature than the CPU, meaning that if you put thermal paste on it, it will heat up by extracting heat from the heatsink of higher temp. If it comes without thermal paste from the factory, you'd probably better off without it.

It's probaby better just to put the heatsink on without spreading it to prevent air bubbles

Do you know any compatible upgradeable motherboards that I can replace on my t470s? I am looking for upgrades to be like 2022 speeds that fit in T470#

I think you would be hard pressed to change the motherboard but certainly worth adding some extra memory and ensure you have a high speed SSD drive installed.
