I got a Zotac GTX 1060 6gb blower without thermal pads. I was looking everywhere what thickeness is needed for the vram on the gpu. Can someone tell me what thickness is needed?

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

That's kind of tricky. You're going to need to source a sliding caliper and then measure the depth of the grooves in the cooler. You might want to look into 1mm, 1.5mm and 2mm thermal pads.

Got an image of the cooler's underside? SKU for that Zotac card?

The heatsink isnt really ordenary to be honest. Its just a aluminium block with fins. The SKU is PN 288-1N438-001A8

Ive seen on a LTT forum a guy that gave 0.5mm thermal pads for a gtx 1060 gigabyte version
