I've opened the cover of my Asus N50V due to the heat problem. I'm wondering where to apply the paste? Thanks for helping.

I not so sure about applying thermal paste on a notebook but cooling pad probably does a better cooling job than that. But still, under this picture I circled both your CPU and GPU.



All the vital part that need cooling are strapped to copper.

the fan working properly?

yes it is still working. I dare not to open right side here. It writes something like warranty will be void if the sticker is removed. Somehow, it looks so dangerous for me to remove it. Do you guys know if lowyat provides this service?

warranty ends??

if yes... just unscrew it.

Look like no sticker somewhere at heatsink.. if warranty near to end.. just unscrew.. nothing will harm the proc n gpu.. unless u didnt put thermal paste.. hehe

u already half way doing the job done. If there's still warranty for ur laptop, it already void once u opened the back panel. dont bother send it to lowyat. Just take out the screw that secure the circle part as picture in sonicstream replied. put the thermal paste and u r done.

Send it to service center since you still have warranty...dont bother or u will void the warranty

if got warranty send back to your asus.u might void the warranty if you damage the board.if no warranty.you can do it your self.no need to send to shop unless you dont know how to do it.
