Well,thanks for tutorial.Cleaned from dust,and some weird stuff,replaced only thermal paste with MX4,i had that one near me,from 92c in games to 71c,thats alot. 👍👍👍
You are very welcome. We are glad that our tutorial has helped you. We hope that our products might be of help as well in the futrue! Our KOLD-01 Thermal Paste uses a special non-solvant formulation design that can prevent paste drying up and losing thermal conductivity, resulting in longer lifespan.
Can you help me to decide between this ACER Nitro 5 and *Asus Tuf / 11400H / 3050 / 16GB / 512GB M.2* Please help :))) Cheers!!@@koolingmonster
@@koolingmonsterI picked up a tube of your product and about to replace my paste with it, on same model of laptop.
@slupot Thank you for trying out our products! We hope the thermal paste will help you with your laptop!
Thermal pads should be replaced with thermal pads not thermal paste. Also removing motherboard small battery is recommended before You start disassembly.
Hi! There will be no negative effect if replacing thermal pads with thermal paste. Especially with our KOLD-01 thermal paste, our special design enables it to have enough viscosity to replace the thermal pads.
this is a great video for anyone using this recently my tip is to make sure that you are gentle with the atennae for the wifi chip at 5:55 bc I have such big hands it came off easily but never went back on, unfortunately replacing the ends of these white and black cables isnt possible so make sure to be gentle when putting them back on!! (luckily i use ethernet anyway but beware if u use wifi)
if you did the same as me don't be too concerned you can either a. soder it back on or b. replace the cables entirely ( but this process is lengthy and hard bc u remove the mobo)
or leave it alone if u dont care lol
Thank you for the great advice for everyone!
@@koolingmonster thank you! your name fits perfect my computer is now also a kooler monster
Thank you for the nice words! We are glad that our products might be of help!
Thank you, my laptop now is going at lower temperatures :D
You are very welcome! We are glad that our tutorial and products might be of help!
Watching you put on the termal paste was a bit brutal, but for the rest of the video, i want to say thanks. I have around 50° on idle, and when cpu is on 13% my temperature is on 91° so i wanted to change my thermal paste. Even when the laptop is just 2 years old.. i will never buy an acer again..
Thank you for your reply! We are very happy to know that our tutorials and videos might be of help. Here is the link to our KOLD-01 Thermal Paste product page if this helps! koolingmonster.com/thermalpastekold-01
never use your laptop unplug because it can cause more heat due to power consumption from the battery. Never let your battery go below 20% it degrades your battery life.
You have to use throttle stop and uncheck use turbo for Acer
bruh you expect your laptop to clean on your own?😂 you need to apply thermal paste after year of using it
bro my Nitro 5 is less than a year old and it's cpu is at 92° at 10% usage and my gpu is at 86° at ~98% usage, you're good lol
Thank you! Just follow the video and you won’t have any problem.
You are very welcome. We are very glad to know that our tutorials and products might be of help.
Im going to try this, thank you
It worked, from 60c idle to 40c thank you sooo much
WOW! That is some amazing improvements! We are so glad to know that our products have helped you.
@@sense5151hi this is a question about the thermal paste is your computer still good and was it this the thermal paste you used?
Thank you very much. The video helped a lot
You are very welcome! We will continue to make videos like this!
Friend, only with phO can I disassemble? or does it need to be a pho bit? I'm having trouble with 3 screws that won't come out at all lol. Nice movie
Hi friend! We are glad that you liked our tutorial. We recommend always using the correct screwdriver bit when removing screws. Sometimes the wrong head can also remove screws, but you are in danger of stripping the screws and having them stuck in the laptop. You could give our KOMBO-01 screwdriver a try. It has differennt replacement bits specifically designed for computer disassembly.
Great video, thank you!
You are very welcome! We will continue to make these videos!
I also cleaned the pink thermal paste around the chipset if we put normal thermal paste will this would be safe ? Or either it can effect the motherboard in future can you plzz explain?
We understand your concern, however our KOLD-01 thermal paste has special rheology design that allows it to have high viscosity and can do the job of thermal pads. There will be no negative effect replacing those with thermal paste.
Good tutorial, however i wouldnt reccomend using thermal paste instead of thermal pads on the video memory chips

Hello 👋 Both slot Pcie nvme M.2 able support 2 x 2 TB ? Then can put in each Single slot 1 and slot 2 With 2 TB and total 4TB ? For this model (2023) Acer nitro 5 AN515-47-R3JC
Hi. There are no limitations on the drive capacity. As long as it is a nvme M.2 SSD, you can install whatever capacity drives you want.
I personally did exactly what you are asking. On the same exact ACER nitro. 2tb x 2 m2ssd drives. Samsung Evo 970. Also upgraded to 16x2 ram for 32gb total. Works great.
Hola, cuáles son las medidas de los tornillos del disipador? muchas gracias 🫂
Hola, lo mejor es preguntar al fabricante.
Im not sure that ripping off the pads and just drowning the area in thermal paste was a very good call

Should I paste my laptop? Its the same As yours in the video. Its 1* year old and I also want to clear debris from the exhausts.
Thank you for your reply! We are glad that our video and products may be of help. We recommend changing thermal paste on a laptop after six months to one year. However, other aspects such as your use case should also be considered. We suggest measuring the CPU and GPU temperature as well. Here’s a link to one of our articles that might help: koolingmonster.com/insights/how-to-know-if-your-thermal-paste-needs-replacing-step-by-step-tutorial
Do you have the kit available in the uae
We will be able to sell our products to the UAE very soon! For now, available countries can be found in the links in the description.
Thanks 👍👍👍
You are very welcome. We're very glad to know that our tutorials or products might have be of help!
i am using the same computer i accidentally removed the thermal pads. Now the heatsink is not touching the gpu and the temperatures have increased excessively. I couldn't find out how many millimeters the thermal pads are. If you have any information, I would be glad if you could help
You can just apply thermal paste whatever components the thermal pads was on. Thermal paste have better heat conduction than thermal pads, and are also better at filling in smaller gaps that the solid thermal pads cannot. Here's a link to our article on thermal paste vs. thermal pads. Hope this can help! koolingmonster.com/insights/cpu-thermal-paste-vs-thermal-pad-which-is-the-best
If you do not want to burn the vrams and power section, then I recommend applying thermal putty such as Upsiren UX Pro, which was created for this purpose. Has anyone encountered a case where a laptop manufacturer applied paste instead of thermal pads or thermal putty on the vrams?
@@koolingmonster That's just a bad advice, VRAM can work until 120 degree which is way too much for most thermal paste in the market and they would dry out in no time..
It is 1 mm thickness
@@koolingmonster how about liquid metal on all of it
Can u suggest me Ram for Acer Nitro 5 AN515-57 which currently has a Kingston 8gb ddr4 3200mhz 1Rx16.Will 1Rx8 run with 1Rx16 which are manufactured by different companies.
Yes, however it is best to use the same ram sticks in one machine.
Please a video for the Gigabyte Aero 15.
We have added Gigabyte Aero 15 to our production list. We will mention you when the video comes out. Stay subscribed!
The pink paste in mine is completely dry and i can break it off by lightly touching it 😂 had my laptop for 4 years
We are glad to know that you decided to open up your laptop and change the thermal paste! Sounds like your laptop really needed some new paste! We hope that our tutorial and products have helped you!
I need that spatula to extend my thermal paste, any links to it?
Our KLEAN-01 Thermal Paste Cleaner kit as well as KOLD-01 Thermal Paste kit both have spatula included. We also include other tools such as spreaders to help with the cleaning and thermal paste changing process.
you don't have to extend the thermal paste, just apply it and put your cooler back on
You are correct. Spreading thermal paste is not required but is a easy way to check if you applied too much thermal paste. Accoring to our study, as long as the amount of thermal paste used is correct, the application method and whether you spread thermal paste or not does not matter. You can view our detailed experiment here: koolingmonster.com/insights/is-the-buttered-toast-method-a-good-thermal-paste-pattern-vs-the-pea-size-method@@headshotchannel2993
Is it okay to use regular grey paste on vrams ?
It is totally OK to use thermal paste on vrams. Thermal paste has better heat conductivity and is better at filling in small gaps as well. There's no need to worry, switching to thermal paste can also help the laptop perform better. However, we do recommend using higher quality thermal paste for this. You can learn more about our KOLD-01 Thermal Paste here: koolingmonster.com/thermalpastekold-01
No. Use thermal pads instead.
Question, I use a acer nitro 5 rtx 3050 and everytime I play heavy games like cyberpunk it cuts my battery from charging and reduces my the laptops performance, even after setting the game to high performance it still cuts my laptop battery power and reduces quality and start lagging please help 😢
It is hard for us to diagnose the exact problem just through these information, but thermal issues can cause laptops to cut power and slow down.
U change thermal pad with paste ? isn't there a gap?
Thermal paste is has better heat conduction than thermal pads. Also, thermal pads are solid materials, whereas thermal paste is grease, therefore thermal paste can fill smaller gaps that thermal pads simply can't. Here's a link to our article on thermal paste vs. thermal pads. Hope this can help! koolingmonster.com/insights/cpu-thermal-paste-vs-thermal-pad-which-is-the-best
@@koolingmonster Instead of thermal pads, for example, on the vrams and power section, it is used thermal putty such as Upsiren UX Pro. In most cases, thermal paste will not adequately efficiently transfer heat because the heatsink will not adhere or the paste layer will be too thick, above a thickness of ~0.5mm also paste transfers heat poorly. For the CPU/GPU cores, I recommend applying PTM7950.
hye? can i know the thermal pad thickness for the laptop?
The thickness is different for every laptops, you might need to measure yourself.
How much thermal paste do I need to buy? Is 5.4g enough?
The 5.4g option is definitely enough for a one-time use. If you are planning to change your thermal paste regularly in the future, we suggest choosing a larger option.
Help. I followed the steps. But the screen now wont turn on. It seems to be getting power but not display. Ive re checked the screen wire
We are very sorry to hear that. Try double checking the display connector cable, as well as the power cable. We hope your issue can be resolved soon!
Hey does anyone know where to get these adhesive tape please help
Hello, you may go to a computer material store to get these adhesive tape.
Hey, I don't want to change thermal paste, but i want to clean fans, is changing paste necessary?
No it does not necessary. I just cleaned mine and the temp drop to some degree.
No
To get most result out of the cleaning, it is very necessary to change the thermal paste. Cleaning the fans improves heat transfer from heatsink to outside the laptop. Changing the thermal paste improves heat transfer from CPU to heatsink.
@@koolingmonster thanks for this, actually i bought my laptop 7-8 months ago, And i didn't knew that laptop shouldn't be used on bed 💀, it started collecting dust from my bed, I belive my thermal paste are fine completely, it's just my fans are so dusty, Thank you so much 🫂, if my thermal paste looks bad i will change it ☺️
You are welcome! Yes laptops collect dust more if they are often used on the bed. But dust cleaning will solve the problem!
Instead of a air duster can i use a electric one😊
Of course, just make sure not to damage the components.
Im having a lot of issues on screw 3, anyone else? 2:15
Is ths screw stripped? First make sure that you using the correct screwdriver bit? You can try to remove the stripped screw with rubberband or gaff tape on the screwdriver bit. We have a tutorial specifically on this matter on our website. koolingmonster.com/insights/how-to-remove-a-stripped-screw-from-laptop-and-pc-using-only-household-tools
@@koolingmonster Looks like The screw was molten in place, I took it to someone with more experience and everything came out right
thanks :)
You are very welcome! We are very glad that our tutorial or products might be of help!
The fans are supose to throw air or suck it?
Hi. The fans in a computer suck in cool air from outside and throw out the hot air from inside.
For gods sake is it possible to clean those without compressed air?
Yes! Just make sure to clean the dust out as much as possible and you will see some improvements!
I forgot to disconnect my laptop battery while cleaning and changing thermal paste What should I do!!??
We suggest always disconnecting the laptop battery when accessing the internals. It is also important to wash hands to prevent static electricity from damaging the motherboard. If your laptop turns back on and does not malfunction, you should not worry too much.
@@koolingmonsterI did the same thing he did but only with the long black wire and the fan wire after I noticed what I did I plugged them back in and did everything else after I was done I plugged my computer in and the charging light turned on for a second and turned off and ever since then nothing’s been responding won’t show it’s charging or turn on
Sorry to hear about the issue. It sounds like there may have been a short circuit when the wires were unplugged. Try these steps: 1. Double-check if all connectors are secure. 2. Reset the battery or disconnect it for a few minutes, then reconnect. 3. Try powering the laptop with only the charger, without the battery. If it still doesn't work, I'd recommend seeing a professional technician. Always disconnect the battery before working internally to prevent issues.@@Chris-pl9ru
My laptop ain’t turning back on even though I followed the steps thoroughly
There are many reasons that can lead to a laptop not turning back on. Try first charging the laptop incase the battery died. Then try if the power cable is fully inserted on the motherboard. If the problem isn't solved or you need additional help, please feel free to leave more comments and we are happy to help.
Did you put your battery plug back in and what happened?
Hi, I need help, the laptop doesn't want to turn back on.

My man is putting 2kg of thermal paste loll
We use our thermal paste calculator to determine the best amount of thermal paste to use. koolingmonster.com/insights/estimate-how-much-thermal-paste-you-need-on-cpugpu-with-a-calculator . Also we spread out the thermal paste before putting back the heatsink to check of we put on too much or too little of paste.
Thermal paste is needed on gpu and cpu, but thermal pads are better on chips
Thank you for your reply! There will be no negative effect if you replace the thermal pads with KOLD-01 thermal paste because of its high viscosity design.
I cant remove the screws its all stuck am i fucked
We are sorry to hear that. Are you using the correct screwdriver bit? Is there a chance that you tried to remove the screws with a wrong bit and the screws are stripped? You can try to remove the screw with rubberband or gaff tape on the screwdriver bit.

"thermal paste has dried up after several years of use" the laptop was launched only 1 year before
