This question has been asked many times, so bear with me.
So, I have already come across the video with the heat gun. The big question is: can I put thermal pads (Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad 1.5mm) on them and put the same trident heat sink back? Does it have any advantage over performance and thermal heating?
Overall, is it worth doing it? If there is any easier way to do it or anything to look out for, let me know.

My ram spec
Trident-RGB-DDR-4_3200 CL16-18-18-38 1.35v 8gb*2
Trident-NEO-DDR-4_3600 CL18-22-22-42 1.35v 8gb*2

Simple asnwer, No!

You're also going to void your warranty on the ram kit, once you've tampered with the sticks.

Trident-RGB-DDR-4_3200 CL16-18-18-38 1.35v 8gb*2
Trident-NEO-DDR-4_3600 CL18-22-22-42 1.35v 8gb*2

If those are rams on your platform, you might want to stick to one series instead of mixing and matching ram kits.
