MacBook (13-inch) Take Apart — Heatsink 81
Using the syringe, put a 0.1 to 0.12 cc dab of thermal grease, in the center, on the mating
surfaces of both chips, as shown below. Apply the grease only up to the line that you marked
on the syringe.
Important: Use one-third of the syringe contents per chip, so in this case, 1/3 of the thermal
grease will be left in the syringe when you are done. Although the amount shown appears
to be plenty of grease, this is the correct amount that has been tested and veried on the
production line.
Important: Avoid unnecessary contact with new thermal material, as dirt and body oils
reduce the material’s conductivity.
