Thermal pad

Hi, a year ago I undervolted my 3070 MSI 2x, since it was overheating to 83 degree when playing basically anything, and idle at 50+ Lately I installed windows 11 and ofc had to reconfigure the undervolt, but this time it didn't work at all. The temps just don't drop anymore and After changing...

Due to Artifacting while watching YTB videos (and somehow only when watching YTB videos not while gaming etc., no matter the browser. I tried several) I checked VRAM temps and noticed that it idles at 60+C. I then proceeded to under-volt and it went down to 40-45C I then saw a Guide on what the...

I bought a used gpu and decided to change the thermal paste when I opened it there was no thermal pads on anything. The temp reaches 83-84°C and the card underclocks itself to keep it from not heating up.

Hello, I bought 2nd hand rtx 3090. It has been repadded (idk which type of pads, I see they are blue). 800mv undervolt/1750mhz makes it stable, with corr temps while benchmarking or using stable diffusion never going above 65-70c at 2000rpm fan speed, but after like 20 seconds of intense load...

Hi guys 1 and a half month ago I bought my new gaming pc and I have AMD Radeon Sapphire RX 7900XT 1 week ago I started having problem with high temperatures while gaming and even without it My temperatures were between 70/75 celzius while gaming, games such as Days Gone, Spiderman, Dead...

I've been planning to re-paste thermal paste for my V2 switch (2019). It doesn't get seriously hot, but there is definitely an increase in heat fan noise and heat overall. Plus I think it needs little bit of cleaning and servicing! I have serveral years of experience with PC parts and larger...

So i have Asus rtx 3070 dual.. and furmark looks like this: 70% fan speed 68° Previously i had 3060 tuf... Fan speed was 35% and temps 56..... I was wondering do i need to change the thermal paste and pads ?

So, my GPU was having a weird hotspot temperature of 90-100 during load while my core temps were around 70 while gaming. I thought that was strange so I decided to repad and repaste. I used cooler master V1 IC value thermal compound for GPU die and Arctic APT2560 1mm thermal pad for the rest...

I bought a 6800 XT Gaming Z Trio, has a beefy cooler on it. However, the junction temperature often reads quite high despite this, and the card peaks at 105c when it's really working (stock fan settings -- not using them anymore lmao) I'm just wondering if it's worth the effort of...

Unfortunately I lost the 2 tiny screws that hold my motherboard's NVMe heatsink in place. I plan on getting a PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD which doesn't come with a heatsink. Will the glue from the thermal pad of the mobo's heat sink be enough to hold it onto the SSD?

I want to change the thermal paste and thermal pads on my 2080 Ti Aorus Xtreme. I think to use Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut and Gelid GP Extreme thermal pads. But I have seen users complain about Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut that it dries out quickly. Don't know is it true or not. What do you think...

I have the 8-GB version of the following card: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/gigabyte-rx-570-gaming.b4442 GIGABYTE RX 570 GAMING So i bought some Artic 50x50 - 1mm Thicc thermal pads to replace it, and i covered the main parts - IMAGEs: View: https://imgur.com/a/PQiisEs I very...

Hi, I will be replacing various GPUs' and laptops' thermal pads and as you already might know, thickness of these pads vary from laptops to GPUs. I looked on various internet forums but couldn't actually find anything useful. Some say it is okay to stack and some say to put a little thermal...

Gonna do change for GPU thermal pads. The factory used 1.75mm thickness but there's none on the local market. Should I use the 1.5mm or go with the 2.0mm?

Does somebody know what's the correct and different thickness I need for GIGABYTE RX 570 GAMING GV-RX570GAMING-4GD https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/gigabyte-rx-570-gaming.b4442 Planning to clean and repaste it, it's a recently purchased used card. It seems the info is quite hard to find...

Hi, here's my gaming laptop specs: ASUS ROG SCAR II GL504GW CPU: i7-8750H GPU: RTX 2070 RAM: 16GB DDR4 2666 MHz I have also previously undervolted my CPU to a stable level using Throttlestop and have MSI Afterburner installed but I didn't bother tweaking any of the values there since I purely...

Hello I need to change the thermal pads on my msi rx 570 armour 4g oc, I want to know how thick the thermal pads have to be,0,5mm, 1mm, 1,5mm? Thank you

I have an EVGA GTX 1060 SSC 6gb that I’ve had overclocked to a stable +125 core and +450 mem for months now. Under load in Heaven benchmark it would average about 72 degrees before new paste and pads. I used Artic MX-4 and Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad 8 (1.5mm thick, cant seem to post pictures...

Hi all, looking for a bit of advice. I’m doing some maintenance on my graphics card (Asus rtx 3070 dual). Long story short, I had a mould problem in my bedroom and the PC has been moved to a safer place and unplugged for the past couple of months. Renovation is underway and I’ve given my whole...

Hello everyone, Straight question: what thickness is needed for the thermal pads on this card? VRAM? VRM? MOS? Backplate? Thanks in advance! :D

Hello I am going to open my laptop for cleaning and changing thermal paste and thermal pads. My laptop is MSI GF63 9SC with INTEL CORE i5-9300h and NVIDIA 1650 MAX-Q. I stopped myself on the thermal paste Grizzly Kryonaut Thermal Grease 1 gr. I want to ask is this enough for only one application...

I am changing the heatsinks on my G,Skill Ripjaws ram and one side of the stick has no chips on it, just foam tape to fill the gap and I assume separate sensitive parts from the metal heatsink. Where can I buy this and what is it called? Does it have any specific function like heat dissipation...

I have changed my GPU thermal paste on 17th of june because it was hitting 90ºc on ful load in a few minutes , now is hitting only between 68 and 70ºc (these are all thermal diode temps ), but When I took it appart I had to change the pads beacuse the memory pad´s were broken and very dry...

Hi, I have missed the intel ICH thermal pad from my friends laptop while opening it But not sure which size fits in it, especially the thickness so it could contact the ICH chip and metal (heat sink) DELL inspiron N5110 Intel ICH pad Any suggestions guys ?

Hey everyone! I'm trying to improve my GPU temps (RTX 2080 TI Gaming OC) because after two years of using the card they pretty much suck (see one of my older post). After some testing and reading about it online it seems that the thermal paste and pads used by Gigabyte aren't that great and...

I have a laptop I want to put thermal pads on the gpu with a heatsink not sure if it will stick to the heatsink so I'm thinking of getting thermal tape. so it can stick im just wondering will it effect any of the themral output of the thermal pad?

So I recently purchased an EKWB heatsink for my 970 Evo Plus 500GB and read basically everywhere that the NAND on the drives prefer to be hotter while the controller wants it to be cooler. My question is, would it be ideal for me to just cut enough for the thermal pad to cover just the...

My card is sapphire pulse rx 580 8gb. And I need to replace thermal pads I contacted sapphire for thermal pad thickness and it's 1mm and 0.75mm. But, I can't find any 0.75mm thermal pad. Is it possible, to change thermal pad thickness from 1mm to 0.75mm. Or, it will destroy the thermal...

I heard that using isopropyl alcohol will do the trick but I just want to know if this will harm my cpu socket or not if i attempt to clean off the thermal paste with this material. is there a better solution or material i can use or is this fine to use?

Hi, I bought an SSD with an enclosure. I have noticed that the SSD gets too hot while using. Now after installing the SSD in the enclosure, there is some clearance between the SSD and the enclosure at the top (approx. 5mm). So I thought that if I could use that clearance by installing some...

So, weird question, but I noticed that the factory thermal pad placed over the NVMe slot (Dell XPS 9560 laptop) is surrounded by an oil-like substance. Since I'm upgrading to a brand new SSD, I want to make sure that this is completely safe for it. The SSD that is currently in the XPS has the...

Hey guys, any time I find a bizarre solution, I'm going to start posting here to help others out. Alright so today I got in two used XFX RX 480 8GB GTR's, which are supposed to be fairly high quality as far as the 400 series goes. So I go to put these cards into gaming rigs and both of them...

I opened up my G1 Gaming 1070 Rev 1.0 to replace the thermal paste and unfortunately there was no way to avoid compromising the thinner thermal pads as they are sticky and tore like nothing. How thick are they, and what are the best options to replace it with? The closest thing locally is...

Hello guys, Im getting pretty annoyed about the situation, to me it doesn't make sense at all https://imgur.com/a/4Ol5XFk as you can see my download and upload speed are more than enough for me to play games, and ping is low too, even on europe servers i get 40-60 ms which is not bad but on...

Hey guys, I was looking forward for Ryzen 5 2400g with vega 11. But I want a little bit better performance on graphics. Will be a new ryzen 7 with an apu?
