So I bought a CECHE model a little over a year ago and it was running pretty well, but I noticed it would get a little loud every once in a while so I put it on hiatus until I could give it a good cleaning and swap out the thermal paste. Finally got around to it today and the inside of this thing was pristine. There was almost no dust inside, but the thermal paste was almost non-existent. So I did the swap and cleaned out what little dust there was and ran it for like 3 hours. It was damn near whisper quiet and the vents weren't putting out much. I feel like I've solved the issue for the time being, but I'm just trying to get a second opinion
