Hello there,
I have hp victus amd ryzen 5600h rx5500m 6.1 inch laptop which is 2years old. Recently I noticed that my laptop got some unusual heating issues through the keyboard. After then i check the cpu temp and it lies between 55 -80 degree Celsius. And I got to know because of dust inside the fan and the dry thermal paste might be the caused. After opening the back pannel I am seeing that there is a white putty kind paste is also available which is i am unaware of.
After googling a bit i came to it is a paste used for gpu and also there is thermal pad available in the market for this.
So now I am confused if this is fine to apply thermal pad if there was thermal putty used previously. And if not which kind of paste should i used for the best ?

Welcome to the HP support community.
I understand that you want information about thermal paste, I am glad to assist you.
It is advised to use thermal gel to reduce the heat.
Here is the part number of the thermal gel and grease that you can use.
