+			On the CPU (and there is another chip south-east to it, sorry forgot to take pic)
+			clean off the old thermal paste (rubbing a1ocheal (misspelling intentional. halal internet)) and apply new (Artic Silver 5 is good, others are good too)

+			This is also an opportunity to change the CPU to another one. For example if you had a Core Duo T2400, you can upgrade it to a better processor
+			(higher speed, 64-bit support). A Core 2 Duo T7600 was installed here.

+
+		<p>
+			Remove the old paste with a cloth (from the CPU and heatsink) and then clean both of them with the <i>alc<a></a>h<b></b>oleel</i> (to remove remaining residue. typo is intentional).
+			Apply a pea-sized amount of paste to the both chipsets that the heatsink covered and spread it evenly (uniformally).

+
+		<p>
+			<b>stress -c 2</b> command can be used to push the CPU to 100%, and <b>xsensors</b> (or <b>watch sensors</b> command) can be used to monitor heat.
