Hi, it still can spin. But I have no idea why recently it keeps auto shut down. Check the hardware temperature on gaming, it can reach 90-100%.

The fan is quite dusty. Any idea how much it would cost to clean the fan and replace the thermal paste.
Thanks

Cleaning fan and chip, blowing heatsink vent, replace with good quality thermal paste should work it out.

Sorry I have no idea which shop to recommend, some freelancer could do better than shop and you need to research on that.

As a technical advisor, doing the steps that I suggested would be the first phase to do before you move on to any other part replacement.
