QUOTE(pikafaded @ Nov 9 2021, 02:19 PM) 2018 - ASUS FX503 until now could try to replace your thermal paste (if you dare)...Having fan issue and frequently overheating because of bad thermal cooling, will probably use for a few more years as it still fulfill my daily usage well, although slower than those newer models out there. I manually replace my 2017 Dell thermal paste, and getting good result, now the temperature is much stable  (but it does involve some extend of risk ya...) |
