    Hello everybody
    I need your help,
    I have clevo p870tm-r from HIDEVOLUTION,
    This is a wonderful beast, but after a year of use, the question arose about temperatures and the replacement of thermal interfaces. I need your help with the following questions
    1: how to test the temperature correctly in order to compare later
    2: which liquid metal to choose
    3: how to properly prepare the radiator and cpu.
    4: I saw there is a mod for the fourth cooler (for the processor), like they said that it breaks the motherboard?
    5: what do you recommend updating my config first: i7 9700k
    rtx 2080
    ddr 2x8 2400 (hyperx)
    6:Is it worth changing something in the BIOS (overclocking)?
    ps: sorry for my stupid questions, I'm new to this
    pps: sorry for my english (google translate)

    Battlefield v is great as a full system temp. Yse MSI afterburner and hwinfo or Intel XTU to monitor temperatures of CPU and gpu.

    Yep so track the temps over a period of load, use the sensors tab in gpuz. Check maximum and average temps and clocking behaviour.
