DESCRIPTION
Welcome to HowFixit! In this video, I'll take you through a step-by-step guide on how to disassemble Dell XPS 15 (9550 9560) laptop, clean its fans, and replace the thermal paste. Our comprehensive tutorial will equip you with the knowledge of fixing laptop overheating issues. From disassembling your laptop to cleaning the fan and heatsink from dust and applying thermal paste, we've got you covered. Say goodbye to overheating and hello to improved performance!
* Laptop Disassembly Guide:
Disassembling your laptop may seem daunting, but I'll break it down into easy-to-follow steps. You'll learn how to remove the laptop's casing, locate and clean the heatsink and fans, and access to CPU for thermal paste replacement. By following this guide, you'll gain a deeper understanding of your laptop's internals and how to keep it running smoothly.
* Fan Cleaning Techniques:
Dust and debris can accumulate in your laptop's fans and heatsink over time, leading to reduced airflow and increased temperatures. I'll show you effective methods to clean your laptop using an antistatic brush and proper handling techniques. By keeping your cooling system clean, you'll prevent overheating and extend the lifespan of your laptop.
* Thermal Paste Replacement:
Thermal paste plays a crucial role in transferring heat from the laptop's CPU and GPU to the heatsink. However, over time, a thermal paste can dry out and lose its effectiveness. I'll guide you through the process of removing the old thermal paste and applying a fresh, high-quality one. This step is vital for optimal heat dissipation and temperature management. Don't let an overheating laptop slow you down! Watch this comprehensive guide and take control of your laptop's temperature. By performing regular fan cleaning and thermal paste replacement, you'll ensure smooth operation, prevent hardware damage, and extend the life of your laptop. Hit the play button now and let's get started!

Awesome walkthrough! I could not believe the amount of dust build up in my machine!
Thanks for this! My laptop no longer freezes
Great video thanks👍 I used arctic MX 6
Thank you - this has brought down the temperature of my XPS, and the fans no longer go wild after opening a few tabs in chrome.
However, since opening up the laptop the trackpad no longer works as effectively. About 5% of the time, even though I hear and feel a click when I press the trackpad, no click is registered. Do you have any idea what the issue might be and how to fix it?
I"m aware that cleaning the fans is very beneficially to keep the laptop running well a properly cooled. But what benefit is there for replacing Thermal Paste?
Thermal paste gets hard and loses it's thermal transfer properties over time. Cleaning and replacing with a quality paste is hugely beneficial to transferring the chip's heat to the copper plate.
Hi there. Thx for the video. My 9560 has two GPUs. Internal intel and Nvidia. Do i have to put thermal paste to both? Where are in the motherboard? Am i ok putting the paste to only these two spots you showed on video? Regards
THANKS
Very thanks❤❤❤
Nice.
Why are you using thermal paste on this laptop it's an M2 drive and does not require it as it generates less heat compared to other SSD types. They rely on the motherboard’s built in thermal pads or heatsinks for cooling not thermal paste. Ridiculous.
The thermal paste will even out the surface of the graphics card and processor chip. Due to the thermal paste the heat sink makes better contact with those chips and can transport the heat away better. The m2 drive ist located in the lower left area of the laptop above the hard drive. But even m2 drives produce a far amount of heat why you should consider putting a thermal pad on it.
@@victorgorklo2180 No need for thermal paste As i said the m2 drive does not require it, the motherboards thermal pads and heat sink has cooling.
