Great product for re-insertion and GPU cooling.

These pads are ideal for any cooling needs that may arise when there is a non-conforming gap between chips and heatsinks. This happened to me and they saved the day. I had a GTX 1050ti that started overheating. Upon removing the heatsink, it was clear that the thermal paste had deteriorated. After changing the paste I tried to reuse the existing thermal pads between memory and heatsink - big mistake. I had trouble with it immediately after having an hour of work putting it all back together. THIS product is the right way to do it. The pads come in a variety of strengths in a single purchase which was a big plus as I wasn't sure which one would be suitable for the job. The pads themselves are uncut, which allowed me to cut different sizes for each module to ensure good contact with the heatsink. Now that the job is done (again), I'm happy to report that the pads are doing their job and making solid contact. with original cooler. Temperatures are no longer a problem - cheers to gaming! I would recommend her immediately. Great product, fast delivery without waiting. Don't bother putting a CPU with a decent heatsink back into a GPU without buying it FIRST, as you'll need it to replace old gaskets on other chips. If I could go back in time I would give myself this advice: old pads are old - don't try to be cheap you'll only be doing the job twice. Buy them and save yourself double work with good, fresh replacement pads.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
