I suddenly noticed instability in the CPU temperature after a year of using the laptop for studies and programs like Matlab. The temperature used to not exceed 70 degrees, but now it's reaching 100 degrees.
I changed the thermal paste the first time (the gray one). After the first week, the instability returned, reaching 100 degrees frequently with thermal throttling.
I installed Windows cleanly and updated the BIOS, but the problem persisted.
I changed the thermal paste again (the blue one, a different brand). After the first week, the instability returned, reaching 100 degrees frequently with thermal throttling.
I noticed the paste shifting away from the CPU and GPU.
I visited two different specialized centers twice, and they stated that there was a problem and I needed to go to the warranty center. I found out that the warranty had expired.
