Some days ago i found out that my brothers laptop witch is zephyrus g15 Ryzen 7 6800h has a cpu throttleing problem

Today i repasted the liquid metal thermal connector with PTM7950 (also i have the before after tests if anyone is interested)

I found out that through almost the full 4 years in witch he was using it the entire middle part of the cpu have had almost no thermal connector on it

I even touched it to make sure if anythings there but no , completely dry

Had seen a similar but a little bit better thing when i opened my own zephyrus m16 a year ago. I didn't know that it can be that much f...ed up

Actually makes me a little bit scared because these things cost a fortune in my country

I don't exactly know how high is the risk of such carelessness but from what I've seen and heard in social media it is very risky

If anyone knows anything I'd be soo glad to know.

Also ,Are all of the brands like this ? Or is it just Asus?

I have a 2022 g15 rtx3080 Ryzen 7 6800h

The cpu is getting too hot and throttls even when its sitting still and doing nothing.

Considering that i didnt do any repasting since i bought it , think it is a good time.

Also i know thet my cpu is using liquid metal but since it is a pain to work with and wery dangerous and the fact that it costs half of my monthly income as a college student in the fucked up economy im living in , i think the game is not worth the candle so im going to use normal silicone thermal paste

I have experience in repasting and building custom pc but have never did such thing for a laptop and dont know how much different brands of thermal paste is going to effect on them

I will be so thankful is anyone could help me decide

manufacturers carelessness

What thermal paste should i go for ?
