[SOLVED] Cheap $1 thermal pad for gpu memory & vrm

[GodAvRI]

its ok to use blue $1 thermal pad with no manufacturer name for gpu vrm & memory (rx 470) ? because its so hard to find branded thermal pad on my country, i just find 3M thermal adhessive & expensive grizzly minus pad

or should me just use a thick drop of branded thermal paste for it? i have noctua thermal paste

Practically anything is better than an air gap, should be fine. Paste to fil in large gaps, not so much. If it is very slim, yes, you can use paste.
