When you get yourself a replacement cable, make sure you depress the tabs when connecting / disconnecting.

On thermal paste, you can usually find it in most computer hardware stores. It's usually not lethally expensive (about 6 euros where I live). It comes in a little syringe, for ease of use.
When applying the paste, take care not to overdo it. It is no good to apply a thick coating, and it is a waste. A thin and well spread coating is best. Apply a small amount and spread it well and evenly on the whole mating surface, just enough so the underlying surface is not visible. Take out any excess paste. I usually apply it to the cooler mating surface, not the CPU. Mounting the cooler on the CPU then ensures the paste contacts both evenly.

If you have never done it, don't worry. It's easier than it sounds. Once you've done it, you realise there is nothing to it.
And if you're still in doubt, ask a friend. I am sure someone you know has already done it.
And then there is the internet. If you have access to another computer, search for tutorials on how to apply CPU thermal paste.

Good luck.

I fixed everything!

I bought Delock sata and Arctic thermal paste for 11 bucks.

I bought Arctic MX-4 (4 grams) paste for 6.5 bucks.

it says 8 years durabilty,must be damn good paste.

Now my temperature readings are normal, 45-50 celsius on idle ( when using firefox 55-60 C)

also my computer is faster with new sata cable on hdd.

my cpu is still getting over 70 degreese celsius (maybe because its 30 celsius in room) when i play videogames ( when i played it reached even 80 )...
tjmax is 85 celsius...

I should add one fan inside computer,maybe cpu fan is not strong enough...?

I don't think 70 playing a game is too bad, but would recommend a case fan or two. I'll still send this one but it's not designed to be a case fan on its own but to draw heat from specific devices.
