HandyAndy Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hi, I have had a 2540p for a few years. Browsing the net I found this site and have ordered a HP 2570p as an upgrade. Whilst its an I7 I have ordered a I7-3630QM as I assume it will be an upgrade. What thermal paste do you recommend? And what thermal upgrades should I do whilst the bottom is off? Cheers. Andrew.

Aikimox Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 There's a lot you can upgrade in this machine. CPU, RAM, SSD. Keep in mind that quad core processors will require a cooling upgrade. A good thermal paste is not going to be enough. Check the owners thread for details. But for a time being you could set max CPU power to 99% in the power settings, that disables turbo boost.
