I had to take my old T60 apart last summer to clean out all the fans and apply more heatsink compound. Runs smooth now, but had an annoying habit of crashing during heat waves before I did this.



I use compressed air to clean the fans every 6 months, also applied new Arctic Silver 5 cpu paste.

I have fans controlled not to run unless CPU or GPU over 52C.

Looking for a replacement like Thinkpad is extreme hard.
