PS. Having any game you want anytime is amazing, and so is having them before they come out
So what your saying is that you just apply new thermal paste and expect that to be a good fix? You'll be doing that over and over again. Once you screw it all down after putting better paste on that thing is not going to overheat for a long time. It's about as close to pernament fix as you can get. I also have a modded 120g original xbox and used to be into that, but there comes a point when you gotta stop spending time and money on that stuff altogether.
