I've recently got my hands on the 2019 Helios 300, the laptop's great in everything except that the CPU temps goes above 90C when gaming
I'm planning on applying Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut Liquid metal on both the CPU and GPU.
My question is:
1. Will using Liquid Metal on CPU and GPU be safe for my unit?
2. What are other alternative Thermal Paste you would recommend

Thank you in advance and Merry Christmas  =)

    lite11 i wouldnt chance it on liquid metal its not safe at all if your planning to move the laptop as it might drip if not proper isolated around the cpu/gpu and short circuit and burn your mobo completely its only good if your planning to keep it stationary and even so all capacitors have to be properly isolated liquid metal its highly conductive its no joke to play around with i would just use kryonaut its completely enough dropped 25 down on mine after i optimized windows and undervolted it with TS check here

    PS optimize windows and undervolt it more first if its already pre undervolted on stock see if anything improves and only after if you can yourself without voiding your warranty repaste it with kryonaut or similar if you have warranty seals send it back for a repaste cpu shouldnt go above 80/85 max and gpu 70/75 below throttling levels anything above this its bad (minor spikes are ok)
