Yes, a friend of mine (on this list) and myself both ran into that. It's apparently a known issue where the thermal compound they used dried out over time. We both ended up redoing the paste.

Thanks, Scott. Good to know.

The thing that is eating me about this, the 5th gen of core processors are looking to bring major improvements for laptops.
