    Hi everyone, I got a 4730z 3 years ago, the laptop run pretty hot and I decided to replace the thermal pad in it.
    I removed everything from the laptop and tried to replace the thermal pad.
    This is the temperature I get.

    ThermalZone 1- you can safely ignore it as long as the rest of the actual thermal diodes show good temps.

    CPU is OK but GPU looks bad- 84*C is way too high for idle temp. Make sure there is a proper contact between the radiator and the GPU.
