In my country, I don't know if I can find another brand of silicon that has good reviews or not. What about applying the same silicon compound I have again with the way you have mentioned?
If that is all you have then use it.
Also, I don't know what is Isopropyl Alcohol (rubbing alcohol) and white coffee filters, although I googled
Isopropyl alcohol, and how much do they cost?
Then use some type of cleaning fluid and cloth that does not leave any lint or oily film on the CPU.
I removed the old thermal compound with applying small amount of the new silicon compound, and then I wiped it.
Not a good means of removing the old thermal paste, remove the old thermal paste first and then apply the new paste.
Thanks a lot,
As you know that getting to the fan/heatsink will require me to dismantle many parts. So, you think that applying a thermal compound again from the same kind I have already used would make difference? Or new fan diffidently needs to be installed. Even I don't know if a new fan sold for $50 would solve the issue or not.
1- You've been talking with my as though did not apply any thermal compound before, I applied silicone thermal compound and after removing the old one by removing it nearly completely.
Not a good means of removing the old thermal paste, remove the old thermal paste first and then apply the new paste.
I only applied new thermal compound on the old one to let old thermal be wet. So, I could remove it easily with a hard cloth.
I applied a dot of fresh paste to the center of the CPU and GPU, and spread it. The method I go by is slightly bigger than a grain of rice but smaller than a pea. Then, put it back together**.**
However, as I said,
1- the error 'the system has detected that a cooling fan is not operating properly' still appears to me.
2- the temperature is still high.
3- the error, which is related to discrete AMD GPU, and not CPU, still sometimes appears to me.

Also, the temperature is still high.
