    Hi guys,
    The T460s in the office is getting a bit loud / overheating a bit. When it's repasted - is there suppose to be thermal paste on both the CPU die, and also on the smaller integrated HD graphics die (on the same chip); or is there only suppose to be pasted on the CPU die (and non on the graphics die)?

    (Oddly, I think some stock T460s I've seen have only got thermal paste on the CPU metal, and non on the integrated HD graphics die - which is odd - as I think most of the other laptops have got paste on both)

    Thanks,
