Let me explain, I have never in my life has not faced with liquid metal but now when faced realized that it's ******ed up, in general, the symptoms are as follows:
There is a laptop on it suspiciously warmed up the processor, and the temperature showed inadequate (Really up to 95 on a permanent basis) In the bios so generally lock at 95 degrees.
At any small load it gives out under 90 degrees, decided to disassemble and look at what's going on there in general on the cover and without mat not to say.
In general I saw that flowed liquid metal, the opinion of services on this matter vary, someone says that and for 20k will not take and it's ******ed and crystal and everything in general and death and ala ulu.
Someone says that it's not so critical and can be coped with, but the fact is that I've already given a decent amount of money for repair (I never went to services and maintain their PCs always myself) but now to work with liquid metal is very afraid.
Accordingly, I am still tense that after small adjustments to the processor (Not in the bios as 230 bios asus just does not give to make any adjustments) and it is through the software temperatures have fallen and now at rest from 60 to 70 and under 90 under load.
The minimum temperature was 54
The photo is naturally attached, the first thing I want to ask what is the gasket on which the liquid metal leaked, is it realistic to find and change it, the second question is it worth the risk and remove the liquid metal by themselves, how well it is removed in such a solidified form ?
What advice can you give ?
And an additional question: Do you think the problem may not be only in the LM? Because despite its frankly bad application on the chip of the video card and processor, the video card keeps good temperatures.
Is there any sense to try to roll back to 318 bios ? On the forum found that many people helped.
Repaste it and you're good. Nothing hard – just watch out not to spill any on the motherboard. Also, use a cotton swab to remove it and clean it well. Also, change the thermal paste on the VRAM and other chips that have some. When you do this and tighten everything, you're good to use it – and don't worry about it so much.
For the liquid metal – it's normal to spread over time, so this is not a big problem. I changed it on my laptop by myself – no services, no other people. It's easy. Watch this video and buy a laptop cooling pad – IETS GT500 – and you will forget about high temps. I’ll send some screenshots to show you the temps and power usage.

repaste #liquidmetal #asusgaminglaptop #gaminglaptop Another job well done by Asus on a $4300 Laptop. What more can be said? If you are getting high temps on some P cores compared to others (10*C difference or higher under load) then you definitely have a crappy paste job done by the manufacturer
