Hi,
I have a Mac Mini Late 2014 and after 6y of good usage I decide to reapply the thermal paste, I was getting hot temps lately.
But I notice that only the GPU has paste... there was no paste on the CPU, when I sought help on internet tutorials about that every video and article I saw had no paste on the CPU originally but always recommended applying there too. No one I found mentioned the lack of paste there initially btw.
If it originally came without paste should I apply? Or do need to only apply at the GPU?
Here's an image I took from the video Heat Sink Replacement - Mac Mini 2014 - 2017 (A1347)
BTW, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm assuming the square without paste is the CPU and the rectangle is the GPU.
Thanks
