    I have an Asus G51vx-rx05. Mine is hovering from 50-56c. Will new paste make it even lower? I had this for about 2 years. Do paste wear out over time? I just purchased an E8435 and cant wait to install it. It will be about an 80% in increase in cpu power. Any one here have the same comp with the same cpu upgrade, can you please tell me your idle temps?

    Those temps dont sound that bad to be honest fella and if you are installing a new CPU you will need to conduct a repaste anyway. :)
