ofc professionals use only thermal interface tape

(funfact those pads insulate usualy more than conduct depending on size)

nth1 is cheeper and better

I prefer that, too. Much easier and less messy to apply @Tervy

Grizzly actually fixed most of my throttling issues I have with this shitty thonkpad

fucking expensive shit though

A gram of that paste retails for around $15 in Canada

what shitty thonkpad

yeah pretty muc

@porco idk just putting a small dot down is quicker and cleaner

I use those spreader things

yes but then my autism always makes me think that the dot might either have been too much or not enough

and I continue questioning myself

a tape is much nicer

you see the whole CPU is covered and you don´t have to think about it any further, instead you just go on with your life

@Hiruzen T420

>1366x768

it's 1600x900

that's not so much better but still better

Better than 1366x768.

tfw IPS panel on x220 still at 720p

It's an IPS panel as well, doesn't look too bad.

I've seen better.

can you mod it to 1080p?

I think so

what's the point on something as small as an x220

even my 11.6" chink laptop that I bought for 90 $ in Taiwan has 1080p

netbooks are amazing

I'd never get something larger than 12 "

Netbooks are pretty nice, except for the small keyboard

11.6" is perfect

T420 is 14"

Even the pixel density of this display isn't enough for me

I'll look into modding it

wqhd

t420

the keyboard of my chink 11.6" laptop is about the same size of keys as my gf's 13" MacBook Pro keys, just less space between the keys

There's WQHD displays for a T420?

jesus christ gimme.

WQHD I doubt, the GPU of it would never handle it, much less the battery

maybe 1080p?
