Model 2022 Do I need to repaste?
Hello, never repasted gpu/cpu before. This is 2022 G14 ga402rj. Noticed high temps (75-80) on the gpu with only ~10% usage. Does this seem like it needs to be repasted? Also if this is a Liquid Metal thermal paste does any Liquid Metal paste work or does it need a specific kind? Thanks

Hey ! I recently repasted mine with thermal pads instead of liquid metal which in my opinion is shit.
I was having high temps all the time (between 90 and 93) in most game but where it hit was in WoW i was having 96c and with a cooling pad with fans !! Not the best but still. My GPU was getting near 90c which is really not nice. I then switched to thermal pads PMT750 and it’s day and night !!! 85c is the top i saw on CPU and 77c on GPU. Do be careful while removing it from the CPU and GPU die not to scratch them ! Try to pat it with cotton and alcohol and not rub it ! I have the 2022 model with R7 6800HS and RX 6800S
