Predator Triton 300 ( PT315-53 ) i7-1800H RTX3070. Thermal Pad / Thermal Paste guidance.

DoughDaa

I want the maintainance guide for PT315-53. My temps are going way high and I want to 90+ on CPU while gaming. Its three years old Laptop.I want to replace the thermal paste. I saw a teardown video which shows that this laptop uses a combination of thermal paste and thermal pads. Thermal paste were used on CPU and GPU. Thermal Pad and/or Pink Thermal paste were used on the Memory around the cpu and gpu… I understand that a good quality Thermal paste can be used on the CPU and GPU , but what should be used on the memories… Can we simply use Thermal Pads on them. If we can .. What should be their thickness?

I suggest that you use a high end product like Thermal Grizzly as this is what I used on my Nitro AN515-56 laptop and it worked perfectly for me. I suggest that you buy some some isopoll alcohol to clean all the old paste cpu/gpu and pad pate off with thoroughly and then apply the new paste and pads as listed below. Good luck and hope this helps you out.

These are the Thermal Grizzly products I used.

1. CPU - Conductonaut Extreme liquid metal 
2. GPU - you should apply the Kryonaut Extreme that is a normal high performance paste and for the
3. VRAM chips - apply their Minus Pad Extreme which come in two sizes of 120x20mm and 100x100mm @ thicknesses of 0.5.1.0.1.5,2.0 and 3.0mm, I bought the 0.5/1.0 thickness pads and I build them up on the VRAM chips until the paste and the pads equally touched the thermal module. 3

Note: as a safety measure, wear an antistatic wrist band to make sure that you don't cause any static damage to the circuitries of the laptop while doing this work, and also follow the strict liquid metal paste application below as its crucial not to apply too much liquid metal paste onto the cpu ONLY as if it overflows underneath the cpu or onto any board circuitries,, liquid metal paste will short the cpu and mainboard circuitries as its a conductive metal paste.
