Is liquid metal worth it for endurance gaming?
I have a ROG G16 laptop, which is compatible with liquid metal, and it came with liquid metal pre-applied from the factory. However, I haven't changed the LM since I bought the laptop, which was around 2.5 years ago. But now, as temps are too high during gaming, I'm considering changing it. I watched a couple of DIY repasting videos on my specific model, and ALL of them advised not to use liquid metal for a variety of reasons, like it being dangerous to handle (spilling on the motherboard) or slowly creeping into the copper heatsink. But on the other hand, I know that liquid metal performs significantly better. But in my use, I play a lot on my laptop. And most of the time it's really long sessions of a game. And my laptop is under medium to high load most of the time I use it.
