Hi all,
I have a 2017 13-inch Macbook Pro. It's starting to throttle massively. I can especially notice it when doing work on Adobe LR. The first few photos process fairly quickly but after a few mins, it becomes unbearably slow. Sometimes reaching 85-90c even whilst watching 1080p60 on YouTube. This is with fans on full power. I suspect that the thermal paste needs to be reapplied. I still have thermal paste from building my PC but after watching the steps needed to get access to the CPU die, I've decided fuck no.
I use the laptop frequently and it is crucial that it isn't down or away for a long time. I am going to drop by Lowyat Plaza as there are a few other things I need to grab. Any recommendations on where I can send my laptop for quick dusting and thermal paste reapplication service (preferably done within an hour or two)? I'd rather not go to an Authorized Service Center as the waitlist and turnaround times can be horrible.

Macnote Solutions i recommend this shop as they are somehow pro. been using their service since 2014 to date.
