Is it acrylics? I did it once with my laptop when I was at uni, but with use it started to peel off. You'd want to add some protection layer of any sort if you want it to last if it's indeed acrylics.

I don't know I was just going to shoot it with some matte clear tomorrow and hope for the best

Yeah, depending on the CPU and GPU, this is likely to have enough hotspots that will cause peeling after a few months.

I'd recommend treating it with a heat resistant clearcoat used for fireplaces.

clear coat should be fine, might wanna tape off any air vents, tho.
