ati HD 3200 GPU
AMD Turion X2 RM-70 Dual-Core Mobile Processor
2.00 GHz
My laptop has heating problem..
I took apart mine, sadly my GPU thermal pad was very old, dusty and sticky...So i removed the pad applied some paste on the GPU and the heatsink surface that touches my GPU.(to be clear there was no paste before only a thermal pad).. But my cpu had old thermal paste dripping of.. So i removed it and also reapplied new paste.
Temprature diff. is not very much. here are the results:---
With 5 chrome tabs and yahoo messenger + Hardware monitor utility --- Core temps- 61, Mainboard temp- 55, Hard disk-48 [Celcius]
With 5 chrome tabs and yahoo messenger + Hardware monitor utility + ANgry Birds Space--- Core temps- 86, Mainboard temp- 67, Hard disk-48 [Celcius]
These are almost or you can say SAME as before
HELP... If applying copper shim between my gpu and heatsink will do any good ? Also the part of my heatsink that covers my gpu does not have a copper(yellow) surface .. its surface is normal as in -->(grey coloured..)
I can post a picture If needed !!
Thx in advance

Here is the pic before applying thermal PASTE !!!
these 2 pads as you can see look pretty. ...square one(right) is for the GPU and the rectangle one(left) is for two little squares on my motherboard(Can any body tell me what are those ? look below in the image)
