RE: Stripping old laptops Part 1

in Geek Zone16 days ago

I once opened my previous laptop (an acer aspire 5742g, if I remember right) to clean the CPU cooler fun and put some new thermal paste on the CPU itself... what a nightmare! I had to dismount everything and I was so scared to broke something... luckily all went fine, but nowadays I'm almost happy my laptop is one of those where you can't touch anything (just the SSD, not even the RAM... 😶). I just have to cross my fingers that nothing will ever break.

Ha... I really prefer to be able to access things! I probably should do the repaste again on my wife's laptop. It has been quite a while...
