    i got the silver one with the gtx 280m, i'm going to be upgrading the processor to a q9000, i was wondering if there's a disassembly guide or pictures. i'll remove the heatsinks/pipes swap the cpu apply some AS5 should be good to go.

    i have another question i was reading the manual and it was stating that there is a sticker on the heatsink, i just want to confirm that the q9000 will pose no problem in terms of overheating right with the np 5797? even if no thermal adhesive is applied?

    You NEED thermal PASTE (NOT adhesive) or any processor WILL overheat. Clean off the old paste properly (with proper thermal paste cleaner) and reapply new paste properly (plenty of videos on youtube) and you will be fine.

    yea i know, i mis worded it. artic silver 5, but you don't always need thermal paste you can run with out it.


    edit: thermal compound that was the word, i meant to say. but anyways it would have no problem running with out, thermal compound doesnt give much of a temperature decrease only by about maybe 8c and i'm being gracious by saying that because low grade compounds dont even do more then half.
