GPD Pocket 2 Re-pasting CPU and Adding Thermal Pads (Thermal Mods) In-Depth Walkthrough

Hope you enjoy the video guys, mind you, it is a long one. However, if you want to see it all, grab a drink, take a seat, and relax as we explore and tamper with the innards of our Pockets for our first time, while I document it. :D
Feel free to ask any questions or correct any wrong methods I may (and quite likely) have used. I will link the thermal mods I used under here, and also some quick video tags in case you are only interested in something in specific (or want to fast forward).
ALSO, I forgot to give special thanks to my girlfriend too, whom remained dead quiet for me during filming, making this video possible since I don't have a fancy studio or quiet place, haha :)
With love, to the Pocket 2 community...
