What about a MacBook fever?

The best way to fix a MacBook fever is to dismantle the machine and clean up the dust that has been stored in the body for a long time.

The purpose of this demolition machine is: to clean the air inlet, Heat pipe, fan (clean + lubrication) and replace the CPU and graphics silicone grease.

　　The first step: remove the bottom shell. From the picture of disassembly, the inlet and outlet are simply unable to look directly.

　Step two: Tear down the left and right fans. Note that the battery line should be removed first.

When you remove the right fan, you should pay attention to the top line of the clip out. The left and right fans are each fixed by three screws. The fan is dirty too.

Once the fan is removed, the fan blades can be seen by removing three small screws from each fan.

It was found that the fan blades of the Macboo Pro Retina are made of hard plastic, the middle part is solid stainless steel and the rest is made of aluminum alloy material.

　　Step three: Remove the cooling copper pipe

There is a rubber cap on the left side of the screw, starting from this side of the screw to unload. After all the screws are removed from this side to lift the heat pipe, the other side of the heat pipe is hidden in plastic clips, carefully drawn out.

The process of lifting may feel a lot of resistance, which is normal, because the silicone grease may be sticky.

We can use plastic crowbar to help, and use a soft cloth to clean out the already dry silicone grease.

▲CPU Close-up--I7-3740QM

▲ Apply silicone grease to the CPU. Note that silicone grease should be evenly and thinly coated, with no bubbles in the middle.

Fourth step: Put back the heat pipe, screw back the screws, install the fan, restore each line clamp. Note: The final installation of the power clamp, installed back to the bottom shell. After all parts have been installed, turn on the test and make sure all the functions of the equipment are normal.

Finally, the standby temperature and normal operating temperature are attached:
