Hello, I have an HP Omen 16. It is recommended not to install thermal pads since using them with a thickness of exactly 0.5 generated temperature problems and the heatsink was not installed correctly. replace and use only thermal putty. Good luck for all.

Does that mean there should be no issues if I follow the method and tools shown in this video? The fan on my CPU started making strange noises, so I’m thinking of copying what this video shows exactly.
Thank you for the guide! Was able to drop my idle temps from 100 degrees celsius to only 60-80 degrees celsius! (Also I used the Corsair XTM50 thermal paste on my cpu & gpu)
The stuff that is not on the CPU and GPU is thermal putty. It is a cheap substance that manufacturers use on components that generate less heat to save money. You can only change the thermal paste and not worry about them. If you want to remove the thermal putty, you can use thermal paste to replace them.
The ASUS TUF A15 is almost identical as the ASUS TUF F15 except for the processor brand. You can follow our F15 video and change the thermal paste. th-cam.com/video/XBphnCNMYtc/w-d-xo.html . If you encounter any problem we will be happy to help!
hi. its very easy and 1.5 years is too early to change the paste. Install some software and periodically monitor cpu/gpu temperatures. if one day your laptop overheats - then go for it. My opinion is you need to change the paste once in several years (4+) or when you change a cooler/sink.
Hello, i was doing the same process, the battery plug was yet to be removed but a screw drop caused a minor spark below the gpu, after the process i turned on the laptop and its fine, and working properly but i am afraid that will it have caused any issue, please guide, Thanks
Thanks for this video I have the laptop , few days ago i used blower machine to clean the dust , the the battery is charging anymore I didn't open the laptop yet Do you have any advice how to fix it ?
It's really hard to know exactly what the problem with without looking at your laptop. We suggest you contact the laptop manufacturer since you didn't even open up the back.
This is random but I just bought an hp transcended and I’m seeing temps up to 140F and my laptop shut itself up twice because of overheating.. sadly Its been longer than 30 days so I cannot return or replace it.. I was thinking of opening it and re pasting thermal paste, I’m guessing they fucked mine up so I’m wondering if this would help? Thank you!
It’s definitely worth trying to reapply thermal paste, as it can often resolve overheating issues if the factory application was suboptimal. Before starting, ensure you have the right tools, high-quality thermal paste like our KOLD-01.
I got an older omen 16, with i7 11800H and 3070, and it runs very hot while I benchmark it using 3D Mark TimeSpy, CPU runs at almost consistent 99-100 degree on the CPU test, and GPU runs at consistent 87-88 degree. I don't know the VRAMs and the VRMs temperature tho.... I want to repaste the CPU and GPU die using Arctic MX-6 and I want to replace the thermal putty on the VRMs and VRAMs with 0.5mm thermal pads from cooler master my question is: is it okay to use 0.5mm thermal pads for the VRMs and VRAMs instead of using the thermal putty (that already there in the first place)? or should I just use the Arctic MX-6 for the VRMs and VRAMs as well? Thanks you to share your thoughts on this comments, I'd appreciate it a lot
Here are some recommendations for your Omen 16 cooling upgrade: 1. VRM and VRAM: Thermal Pads vs. Thermal Putty Feasibility of Using Thermal Pads: 0.5mm thermal pads are typically suitable for VRMs and VRAMs, but only if the thickness matches the original thermal putty used by HP. Many manufacturers choose thermal putty because it fills uneven gaps, whereas thermal pads may not make consistent contact in different areas, leading to suboptimal cooling. It’s recommended to check the original putty’s thickness first. Advantages of Thermal Putty: Thermal putty is more flexible and adapts better to surfaces with varying heights. If the original putty has uneven thickness, you may need to use a softer thermal material instead of a uniform-thickness pad. 2. Using Thermal Paste on VRMs and VRAMs Yes, but the gap between the VRAM and the heatsink makes it hard to keep them in a fixed position. Most thermal pastes on the market are of poor quality, with excessive fluidity, making it difficult to achieve optimal performance. Besides, you're welcome to try our KOLD-01 thermal paste! It's different from the standard thermal paste you mentioned. The key difference is that regular thermal paste uses a solvent-based formula, which evaporates when heated, causing the paste to dry out and lose its thermal conductivity. Our unique solvent-free formula solves this issue, offering better cooling performance and a longer lifespan for use on laptops. Hope these tips help, and best of luck with your upgrade!
@@koolingmonster Thank you for your reply, and thank you so much for your recommendation. I already did repasted my CPU and GPU using Arctic MX-6 and using thermal pads for my VRM and VRAM. I did notice that some of the small chips around the VRM (which I didn't know what that is) are needed to use 1.5mm thick thermal pads, and luckily I did have that with me so it's not a problem for me, but just need to keep in mind. After that process I did get significantly better performance, even I didn't properly clean the fan and the heatsink from dust. I did my benchmark test and got 82 average CPU temp and max on 85, and I also got 75 average temps for the GPU with peak temp on 81. Thats a huge improvement considering I didnt use any cooling pad or stand to improve the cooling. I got that improvement by using only thermal pads, I really want to try out your suggestion for using thermal putty for the VRM and VRAM to further improve the cooling performance on this laptop. big thanks for you👍
Hey there, typically, these measures can help prevent screws from stripping: 1.Twist with a rubber band (if not severely stripped). 2.Twist with black electrical tape (if not severely stripped). 3.Use nail clippers/pliers. 1.Best practices to avoid stripping: 2.Choose a high-quality screwdriver (like our KOMBO-01). 3.Ensure the correct screwdriver head. 4.Apply vertical downward pressure when turning the screw. learn more about lossen tight screws: koolingmonster.com/insights/how-to-remove-a-stripped-screw-from-laptop-and-pc-using-only-household-tools
Hello! Thank you for your comment. The substance on VRAM and other chips are actually thermal putty, not thermal paste. If the thermal putty are not dried up or cracked, it is defenitely fine to leave them as is. Thermal putty is used for these chips because they produce less heat than core components like the CPU and GPU. Thermal putty is a cheaper substance that manufactures use to save money. However, if you decide to change thermal putty with thermal paste, it will surely benefit your computer.
@@ThisisPartOne Thank you for your reply! Yes it's thermal putty on those chips. Thermal pads are also used a lot by manufactures to save money. You can also replace those with thermal paste without any concerns!
I did literally this same thing but instead of changing the thermal paste i fixed a fan, i dropped my multi tool 2 times but neither were hard enough to break anything and now it wont turn on
The amount of thermal paste shown in the video is actually correct! We used the buttered toast method and can directly see if we are using too much thermal paste. Thank you for your suggestion, we will continue to make better videos!
I even have a cooling fan under & it over heat, no chance in hell I ever buy Omen again in my life. Did never like HP & probably never will, since they clearly just sucks. Just like Apple & other horrible companies. Back to AMD - MSI & would say ASUS, but ASUS has lost my trust after horrible designs & stupid ideas. Thank you for the video enough, but this will not make this Omen pc to not overheat - since HP just sucks. CSL & OUT!
yeah i dont like mine for how much it overheats, even with cooling pad. now i get really bad stutters and i think my cpu is damaged, im too broke for this lol. but its lasted 4 years so far, maybe it is just a need for new paste
Hello! I agree with what you said, but maybe the dust that hasn't been cleaned for a long time could be obstructing the cooling system and causing high temperatures. Regularly cleaning the dust off the heat sink and fan using our product can maintain good cooling efficiency.
@@koolingmonster Maybe, but now the laptop has also started to jump & chop with a shake & sounds horrible. And it completely overheats already, like they almost forgot to put cooling paste inside it.

It´s like the pc are already completely going to break soon & it´s not even a year old… So, I will honestly never ever touch Omen (HP/Dell) Alienware ever again, it´s that simple.

Blower machines generate ions = which are charged with negative atoms. Negative + negative causes circuit. You most likely killed your machine,
