Well, by default, it already got its own thermal paste, but who knows what kind of it tongue.gif
As long you get the one non-conductive and didn't spill too much at the surrounding, should be fine.

I see... thanks.. rclxms.gif
BTW what model is your Acer ?
Can this be done to the s42 too ?

the heat talking is insanely hot...
anyway, i want to ask, about a fool-proof alternative...
cos i am afraid i am too stupid to open up the lappy...
u guys know there is a notebook cooler that sort of attached a fan at the exhaust of the laptop, thus suck out the hot air inside the lappy..
does it works, to any extent?
cos i planning to get one~

Yea, there's something like that, I saw it in garage sales bfore...
