    I searched the forum and found a thread with a step by step but the link to the site it was on is now dead since the thread is a few years old.

    Does anybody have a step by step guide as far as replacing the thermal paste on one of these models? I want to do this for my brother since his warranty is void and he overheats a lot when playing WoW or other games
