    Regarding the heavy amount of thermal paste I used...it was at least partially a joke. I knew I was putting too much in, and did so because I was handing this project back to Steve at TronicsFix who has a long running joke with his community regarding the perfect amount of thermal paste. Sometimes jokes hit. Sometimes they don't.

      Saying that, I was watching an old video where Steve left a cockroach in a console that he gave u to clean after he fixed it, so I'd call it pay back 😜😜😂😂😂😂😂

      there is no such thing as too much thermal paste. steve from gamer nexus proved that a long time ago. when dealing with a bare die like that you better put too much rather than not enough so you won't get a 110c hotspot.

      @@hmello3250 Just to clarify, as long as you are using a non-conductive thermal paste there is absolutely no downside, it will just squish out the side and make a mess for the next time you open it up to clean or reapply paste, but it won't hurt anything and won't affect thermals. However, while most are, not all pastes are non-conductive. If you get those into any of the surface mounted components around the die you'll have a bad day.

    I'm glad this new of a system can still be disassembled and cleaned without bricking the console. I honestly thought Microsoft or Sony would've put something like required security code unique to a system's serial number to ensure repairs or cleaning jobs couldn't happen but it hasn't happened yet, and I hope they don't even consider doing something like that in the future.

      You definitely should at least take off the backplate and the fan. It's very simple and will give you ample access to what you need to clean without taking it all the way apart. Especially the heat sinks. Those are vital and build up a ton of dust. You'll be able to vacuum and/or brush those once the fan housing is removed
