any suggestion for thermal pad ??

coolaboratory liquid metal
arctic thermal pad

The liquid metal will fuse your cooler/IHS/copper cooling assembly to your chip. You've already made one mistake, we're here to help you not make another. If you're looking for thermal pads, it's best to source replacement thermal pads for your laptop by looking up the make and model number of your laptop. Speaking of which, can you please pass on the make and model number? On another note, did you throw away your thermal pads lifted off your laptop'\s assembly?

You could try Fujipoly thermal pads but they are the cream of the crop grade thermal pads and will cost you a pretty penny. You could live with Artic thermal pads but do note, there are a number of thickness available ranging from 0.5mm to 1.5~2mm in thickness. That is why...

You will also need to judge the thickness of the thermal pads you removed before you gun for a purchase.
