In this video and my previous video, I have not discussed BGA (ball grid array) because it is not commonly used in processor of personal computers and servers as Intel and AMD heavily relies on LGA and ZIF. ARM, Broadcom, Qualcomm, Nvidia, and other SoC manufacturers all rely heavily on BGA. Just putting this out here for someone who is new to learning about CPUs and come across the term, BGA.

IF the cpus have been running hotter than usual for a longer period of time, thermal paste will have to be reapplied more frequently. I think better grade paste lasts longer.

Unfortunately, you don't really speak about why things are needed or what it does.
