Gonna wait until I am back to 100% and sit down with my dad, some q tips and a can of compressed air. Gonna redo the thermal paste too.
Make sure you plug the “straw” into the compressed air can and hold it back a few inches from the laptop. Otherwise you get residue.

Good knowledge! Thanks man. Have you worked with computer hardware before?

I had a laptop that used to overheat and shut down. So I used to use compressed air cans to blow dust out of the vents every so often which fixed the problem.

My laptop’s pretty funky looking. It would probably benefit from some cleaning as well.
If your redoing thermal paste you should wear a grounding anti static band so you don’t mess it up when in there.
