New CPU/GPU Thermal Paste - MacBook Pro 15” (Late 2013-Mid 2014 Retina)

Here’s how I replaced the old thermal paste in my MacBook Pro. It’s honestly really and and brought my CPU temps back to a reasonable level. If you have an older Mac with some thermal problems, definitely consider doing this.
Here is the video for how I replaced my battery: • Battery Replacement - ...

Thank you for this! Please don't worry about the unrecorded part, I appreciate your efforts!!

[@Casey_Schmidt]

Thank you!

[@tomteng4151]

I put all your effort to deliver good message to us, thumbs-up to you still. Cheers !!!

[@Casey_Schmidt]

Haha, thanks Tom!

I called a local repair shop for a quote and they charge $238.00 just for the battery replacement. I think I'm gonna bite the bullet and give it a go. Wish me luck!

I like your honesty.

[@Casey_Schmidt]

@Mark Guy - Thank you!

[@MoxAIprofit]

Mine also has heat issues, but I don't feel confident enough doing that's and honest, y I can't trust anyone do it for me 😅
BTW thank you for your efforts and don't worry about the missing part

Never understood why dont they put a cold temp thermocouple on top of CPU to cool it down rather than a metal bar?

[@technotrancesessions]

Thanks for taking the time with this, its appreciated. Did you find that the GPU issues were rectified from updating the thermal paste?

[@Casey_Schmidt]

@JN Nicholls - The temps went down by a few degrees so I definitely think it’s worth it.

[@technotrancesessions]

@@Casey_Schmidt I completely agree, I received my paste this morning and carried out the task this evening as per your direction. So far so good, no crashing and its all behaving as it should. I believe my GPU (or CPU) was overheating due to dry paste, no kernel panic (darent say yet) which is a real plus, as Ive been at my wits end with it. Thanks again Casey!

[@Casey_Schmidt]

@@technotrancesessions - I’m glad to hear the improvement!

[@technotrancesessions]

@@Casey_Schmidt yes, the cpu is grand, low temp, low fan speed. Sadly I spoke too soon re the GPU, thats still failing after a day of perfect function. There's a place over here that does a hardware bypass, a new chip to ensure the nvidia card doesnt ever come into play, so its just the on board, I think thats my only option now.

[@G4ming_OG]

did it make a difference on the temps?

[@Casey_Schmidt]

Yes but only a small one.

[@piotrm2999]

Can I use Isopropyl alcohol for cleaning?

[@Casey_Schmidt]

I don’t see why not so long as you don’t get the circuit board wet. Use as little as possible.

[@rabiunislam9302]

do it again....

fire your camera man!

Take this video down and do it over correctly.
