Gaming laptops run hot and draw a lot of power, so they wear out fans, thermal paste and charging circuits faster than ordinary laptops. We repair Alienware, ASUS ROG and TUF, Lenovo Legion and LOQ, HP Omen and Victus, MSI, Acer Predator and Nitro, and Razer Blade.
Common gaming laptop faults
- Overheating, loud fans and throttling in games
- Crashes, artefacts or no display from the graphics chip
- Failed charging from high-wattage adapters
- High-refresh screen replacement
- Broken hinges from heavy lids
- SSD and RAM upgrades
Cooling service
A proper cooling service means stripping the laptop, cleaning the heatsinks and fans, replacing the thermal paste and thermal pads, and stress-testing it afterwards. It is the single best thing you can do to keep a gaming laptop fast.
Questions we get asked
Can you upgrade the storage while it’s open?
Yes, and it saves you a second labour charge. We can clone your existing drive to the new SSD.
How often should a gaming laptop be cleaned?
Every 12 to 18 months for regular gaming, or sooner if the fans are getting louder.
