[SOLVED] Thermal compund/Paste

[FlaryBartender]

I know that normally nobody should change GPU thermal paste. I've searched even on google, and everybody says that GPU Paste should have not been changed. I just want to ask why it should have not be changed. Like what is the difference between CPU and GPU heating/paste?

If this sounds like a stupid question to you, i apologise in advance!

Don't know why it's being said to not do that. I have some Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut that works fine on both CPU and GPU. As long as the thermal compound is of a high enough quality, there shouldn't be a problem. Something to keep in mind is that there's a risk of short circuiting your GPU if the thermal compound is conductive.
