Review on Thermalright Thermal Pad 12 for Industrial Electrical Applications by Radney Taala

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Saved my cards

These pads saved my EVGA 1080ti SC2 cards and my Aorus 1080. Before I used these pads, both cards were experiencing artifact and shutdown issues. Now I can throw anything at these cards and they work like new. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to stress test the Revain's New World loading screen, but I'm sure these cards would handle it. I have changed thermal pads on several graphics cards and sometimes I have problems after the process. . These problems are always due to new pads not compressing like the original pads. In these cases you will need to swap all spacers and use the smaller size. For example, I have replaced many pads that are 1.5mm thick, but then I have trouble turning off the new 1.5mm pad I was using. Switching to a 1.0mm shoe solves the problems. Honestly, if you've spent $600, $800, or $1,200 on a graphics card, backordering a $40 pack of pads shouldn't be a problem. There's no point in complaining about the price of a tablet when you're doing the procedure on a $600 GPU.
