[QUOTE="iggibar, post: 1848887, member: 97843"] I started taking the 2.2 apart and cleaning it. This is what it looks like after I opened it. Pretty clean, but I disconnected the battery and proceeded to clean around. [ATTACH=FULL]31455[/ATTACH] Removed the heat sink and wiped off the old thermal compound. [ATTACH=FULL]31456[/ATTACH] Removed the fans and cleaned them. [ATTACH=FULL]31457[/ATTACH] After the WHOLE thing was cleaned, I installed the 970 EVO and heat sink. My personal favorite thermal compound is Kryonaut Thermal Grizzly. [ATTACH=FULL]31458[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
