I wonder how many people don't realize thermal throttling is likely contributor to their old laptop slowing down.

The occasionally blast of compressed air and replacing the 6 year old dried out thermal paste does wonders.

I've always felt sus about using canisters instead of compressor/fan. They use gas which instantly freezes the surface, which introduces some serious material stress in the long term. Also, with cold surfaces but warm air comes condensation

They only freeze the surface if you hold the can upside down or sideways though. If you hold it upright it just sprays close to room temp CO2 as it is suppose to.
