250
replacing the thinkpad
(thelemmy.club)
for anyone who wants to offer actual advice: its a lenovo thinkpad t450 with a soldered i5-5300U that hits over 90C when running cargo compiles. I have changed the thermal paste and it didn't do much.
The t450 is peak laptop in terms of build quality and repairability. Keep it around until it's dead for real
"peak build quality and repairability" not anymore. repairbility by 2015 standards isnt great, by today standards its average to good. that's a problem because the aging CPU can't be changed.
