Toshiba
Literally everything that could go wrong with it went wrong
SsD died a year after I got it
Thing overheats
Battery is useless
>>55509385
Man, i swear that looked like a thing HP would do, considering their thermal performance.
>>55509408
Me too, i have an HP notebook, and it's super trash, it overheats with ANYTHING.
Even during regular usage.
>>55509385
Fuck Toshiba. Even HP is better than that trash.

Keeping it clean in there?
>>55509385
Yeah toshiba is the fucking worst. Their laptops actually look pretty nice though.
>>55509908
The last clean up i did was 3 months ago, i think some idiot at my house dropped the notebook in the floor and the cooler broke.
>>55509850
I have one just sitting as a WiFi bridge. Pic related @ 18C ambient.

;-;
>>55509334
that's phase change compound, not paste. And the pattern on the die indicates there was a large gap; the heatsink was not making contact.
What's a decent laptop brand, anyways?
>>55509960
This is mine right now, only Opera and Foobar2000 open.
It's winter here where i live so ambient temp is around 16C
Some idiot probably broke the cooler while i was sleeping.

Please disallow yourself from owning any and all electronics in the future, please.

Looks like they've added too much, but I don't think the thermal compound is the issue. Your laptop is just aging.
>>55509960
Sure it's not just reading the temps wrong? I know speccy on Windows always gives double CPU temp readings on HP/AMD laptops. Keeps claming I'm idling at 90c.

I didn't let anyone use it, my notebook have a password that nobody knows and stays on my PC table.
If i had to guess, my mother was cleaning the house and dropped it while she was cleaning my table when i was sleeping.
By any means, i don't even care for this notebook, only using it because my old desktop died (It was a 6-years old rig anyway, i'm surprised it lasted that long really.)

>Your laptop is just aging.
No, it either got dropped at some point, deforming the mount/heatpipes/heatsink, or it got reassembled at some point and someone fucked up the mount. It's all thin copper, heavy, bends easily, and goes to hell with the slightest deformation/misalignment.
