Question Liquid metal on 3060 Ti Fe

[JelkoBG]

Hello, I'm thinking about using liquid metal on my 3060 Ti (Founders Edition). I tried replacing the thermal paste (I somehow made it worse than before). I replaced the thermal paste with Arctic MX-6, at first the temps were little better but now it's even worse than before. Temps are not the main problem but part of it. I want to make it quiet. Right now it's running at 65-66°C at 65% fan speed. It's also undervolted, It's running at 900mV, the power consumption is around 160-170w. In some games it gets to 180w. Will the liquid metal help in this situation ?

I want to make it quiet.
What is the make and model of your case? Number of fans in said case and their orientation?

The case is fine. It's Cougar mx410 mesh, 4 fans, 3 intake and 1 exhaust. I soon plan to replace all the fans with Arctic P12 fans. The ambient temp is 23°C.

Well I just decided to do it and the improvement is massive. From 65-66°C to 56-57°C and the hotspot from 82°C to 70°C. I used thermal grizzly and I applied clear nail polish to the smds around the gpu die.
