Question RTX 3070 thermal paste ?

[CHEFY]

So i have Asus rtx 3070 dual.. and furmark looks like this: 70% fan speed 68°
Previously i had 3060 tuf... Fan speed was 35% and temps 56.....
I was wondering do i need to change the thermal paste and pads ?

On top of the fact the 3070 uses more power, the TUF series has a good cooling solution while the Dual series has a lesser cooling solution. Having said that, 68C at 100% load with an Asus Dual is not bad.

So thermo paste was not changed on it ever.. so you think i can win couple % on fan speed ? Or temps ? If i go with noctua thermal paste ?

There is always some chance of damaging a gpu if you take it apart and you void the warranty. I see nothing wrong with your temps. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it would be my advice.

I would not change it. We often see users getting worse temps after changing thermal paste because of one reason or another. Your temps are fine as is.
