As per title, looking to apply new tim and a give it a general clean up but for the life of me I can't find anything on Google. Want to make sure I don't **** it up.

Cheers.

Just some wee feedback if anyone plants on doing this. Was super straight forward with no hidden screws or anything, only needed 2 Phillips screwdrivers and that was it. Can't believe how much gunk they put onto the GPU's though, they were covered and so was the PCB! Cleaned it all up, reapplied the paste on GPU's and also the pads on the memory and also blew all the dust out with a hair dryer. Temps have gone down by 5C which isn't much but better than nothing.
