Yep, and I really hope they don't screw it up, because this particular bit of silicon die is lovely. I've undervolted the caches by 100mV! And it's still stable. That's great. Silicon lottery. Now if it was just bonded correctly my temps would be fantastic.

Given that your portable is still under warranty, I don't see how you can avoid going the official route. The question is why a new portable needs servicing. Apparently Lenovo's QC is not all it should be.

Yeah, he may strap a gator to it and power it with meth. 
The QC I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. Everybody makes a bad batch once in awhile. It's what they do about it at the end of the day that is the measure of their product.

Sounds like one of those cases where people say they charge $X for some work, $X*2 to let you watch, and $X*10 to let you help.

It's all part of my warranty service. If they started asking for money my next call would be to Lenovo.

LOL we were just talking about how that crap pumps out in a week's time.
Better to go with Honeywell PTM, but no in this case, you'd use liquid metal compound as that's what was applied from the factory. It's not the same as standard PTM.

Some on Linux. Some on Windows. I use Ubuntu. People hate on it, but my clients don't pay me to troubleshoot issues with my linux install. Ergo, when linux runs into a problem - and it will - I can go on a forum and someone has already solved it. The larger the userbase, the more likely that is. Ubuntu has among the largest userbases out there. That's why I use it.

Interesting. It's always been my goto if my laptop starts warming up. I've not heard about the Honeywell product.
And, thanks for the pointer on ubuntu. Stability is everything.

I've got a lot of reservations about Lenovo. Back when they were IBM, they made fairly inadequate laptops, but I really liked that they published online repair manuals that showed how to get into the damned things. Nobody else has ever done that, and I was impressed. But since the sale (or spin-off) to create Lenovo, I've been kinda leery of their products. Please keep us posted on how this all transpires!

I had a top of the line thinkpad back when IBM had them. It was probably the nicest laptop in terms of function and build quality that I'll ever own.
I'm guessing their lower end ones didn't share those features.
