LinusTech if you guys would be willing to redo this test with both TC-1996 and SE-G751, I think people would get a much better insight to the differences in the quality of the pastes themselves. The TIM application is 0.25 g, which will be a nominal 26 mm diameter (1.0 inches). If you can unscrew screws, pry off some plastic pieces, unplug a cable, plug back in a cable, snap on plastic pieces, and re-screw the screws back in, you can do this. The reference thermal solution uses Shin-Etsu G751. If you take your laptop to a computer store, they will charge around 100 dollars or more to fix it.

Replacing them with high-end fans produced by epmPapst or Noctua results in both better cooling and lower noise. In this case, it was a Toshiba Satellite S55-B5157. Then unscrew the old battery screws one by one and carefully save each screw. A good reason for opening one's computer consists in changing the fans, which are often cheap and noisy crap. The cables are usually between 15 to 25 dollars on Amazon and can be found by searching your computer's make and model number. Sometimes you can use the laptop in a certain position but other times it will stop working all at once. The opening and closing bends the cable and, after time, this bending and unbending of the cable damages the wires inside the cable causing shorts. The cable that connects the screen to the base runs thru the hinge. I told her that I could probably fix it when she got back home. The screen would only work when the laptop was partially open. My wife contacted me, from the other side of the planet, to tell me that her laptop was having trouble.
