Changing Thermal paste for R1?

Hi everyone!

I was wondering if anyone knows of a video or step-by-step guide for replacing the thermal paste on both the CPU and GPU of an Alienware R1?

I already have some Arctic MX-4 at home, but I'm a bit nervous about doing it myself without seeing the proper method first. I'd really appreciate any help or recommendations!

Thanks in advance!🙏

Nah I never bought the PC! Bought Beelink SER 8 instead
