These are what I use on VRAM.

If you have a problem with the included thermal tape sticking, then use the AS thermal adhesive that you mix.

Yes all GDDR5 is same size. Just make sure they have enough clearance for the rest of your cooling setup.

What exactly is your intention with the VRM sink?

TOO cool it as the NZXT kraken g10 leaves all the chips with no heatsink
so can i just pull the ones off my stock cooler ? and use that
also what size is GDDR5 ?
