Because of high CPU temps, I reapplied my thermal paste for the first time. I followed a guide and did everything it told me, but when I replaced the fan, I slid it around quite a bit (I was not expecting it to be that slippery). The computer turns on and everything, and the temps went from 70C idle to 50C idle.
I was just wondering if I messed up by sliding the heatsink across the CPU too much when reapplying.
P.S. I used the line method.
