i have already bought some thermal paste but too afraid to do it myself (mainly because i’m clumsy) and so i was wondering how much it would cost out of pocket for a store tech to replace my thermal paste in my laptop. my laptop’s cpu has been peaking lower 90’s in temps lately in fallout 4 (on high, not even ultra) and my gpu has been hitting mid-higher 80’s in temps which is scaring me quite a bit since before, it never got that high.

again, just to put it short: how much would it cost for a tech to repaste my gaming laptop

    It’s a model that’s roughly 2 years old, had it for a year and can feel the heat through my keyboard which brought me to the conclusion to repaste my laptop.

      I’ll mention again, those temps aren’t to high for a laptop, you may get another year out of the paste before needing it replaced
