Mainboard upgrade time! AMD Ryzen 5 7640U, Batch 5 (arrived today). Old board is moving to its new home, a cosy 0.57 sq ft Cooler Master case. (alien.top)

Don't use kryonaut, instead use PTM7950. It's worth it, given my experience with ryzen 5650u on a ThinkPad T14. Every other tim except for liquid metal is worse than PTM for laptop usage

Agreed

I've never had a problem with Kryonaut and found it an improvement vs. the stock paste on my 12th gen mainboard, so I'm sticking with it for now.

I installed the AMD mainboard last night and repasted with Kryonaut before powering it on for the first time. So far so good.
