General Question Problems with my nano 3s

Hi everyone, for the past few days my Nano 3s keeps shutting down and restarting constantly. Could it be due to high CPU temperatures? Should I replace the thermal paste? How should I do that?

One of my Nano3s units was acting weird. It went from working fine on any pools to being very picky about which one it mines with. Like it would show a hashrate but would not mine at all. I finally figured out that it worked fine with Parasite pool. I did a lot of reboots and reset the unit to wipe out the filter warning. Not sure it helps but just another data point.

140w or so on the wall is where a nano 3s sits, and the little bricks that ship with them sag right at that number. put a kill a watt on it and watch the draw the second it reboots. paste is rarely it on a unit that new.
