Question 1.2mm thermal pads

[Durwesh Naeem]

I recently purchased a Barrow 4090 block, but unfortunately, it didn't come with the correct thermal pads. The thermal pad application diagram provided recommends using 1.2mm pads, but I'm having trouble finding them. I'm unsure about the best alternative solution.

Should I combine a 1mm pad with a 0.5mm pad to achieve the recommended thickness, or is it better to use a single 1mm pad instead of the specified 1.2mm?

Get the proper thickness pads for best results. What on-line source for PC parts do you use?

Understood. Amazon and Aliexpress both carry multiple thicknesses of thermal pads.
