Gelid Solutions GP-Extreme Thermal Pad 80 x 40 x 2.0 mm Excellent Heat Conduction, Ideal Gap Filler Easy Installation Thermal Conductivity 12W

I got these to replace some old crusty pads on my graphics card and you can immediately tell the quality is way higher than the generic stuff because they are very soft and compress perfectly against the chips. Cutting them to size was pretty simple with a pair of sharp scissors and they have just enough tackiness to stay in place while you are trying to flip the heatsink back over without everything sliding around on you. After installing them I noticed my memory temperatures dropped by several degrees during heavy use so they definitely do a much better job at moving heat than the stock ones ever did. The only thing to watch out for is making sure you get the right thickness since they dont have much give if you go too thick but honestly for a quick thermal upgrade these are super reliable and worth it if you care about keeping your hardware running cool 😌

Used it for a bit of a weird use case, but I used the 1mm thermal pad as a TIM between two motherboard heatsinks and their AMD chipsets since their temps sucked. Managed to drop temps from 74C down to 55C on an ITX board, and 67C to 52C on an mATX board. Costs a few bucks, but highly recommended. Wasn't hard to apply, just try to use scissors and tweezers and remove one adhesive side at a time.

Perfectly decent thermal pads.. but I needed a lot more in the end for a project so I'll have to go to microcenter to find a better deal on a larger amount.

Heck yeah! I trimmed this bad boy and put it on my GPU, (7900XT). And bam! Dropped those temps nice and good. So far, I’m satisfied.

Plenty thick for large backplate gaps like the reference 6900 XT model. The thing is I BARELY had enough, I had to get clever and "scrap" some other pieces of VRAM pads and smush it into this frankenstein pancake for the last back VRAM pad. That said, it did cover all the back VRMs and VRAMs, even if I had to jerry rig the last portion, that could be a total error on me not being super precise and mathing out the pieces. But hey, it's pretty squishy for a thermal pad, which is a good thing for backplate installation cause you want to be able to tightening the thing down. And the results show on my Memory TJunc, it does pretty good work. Now my backplate is functional for thermal dispersal instead of just acting as a barrier from the exposed PCB.

It cooled my gpu considerably and was able to use enclosed without a fan directly blowing on it . Nice and thick 2mm could be a bit bigger but was able to cover everything.

I got these 1.5mm pads to re-pad a FE 3080 Ti. Hopefully this review shows up on all pad thicknesses as I originally purchased 2mm pads based online guides and videos. I got my card March 26 2022, it seems the heatsink has changed, see another review with the same hypothesis. The core was not making much contact to the heatsink with 2mm pads, memory temps were amazing but the core was thermal throttling at the desktop. I had used a manual spread method for the paste and only the very center about a dime size had made any contact. I ordered the 1.5mm pads and now I have memory temps about 15-20c cooler and the core peaks at 70c under full load. I used 3mm pads on the back but 2mm might work as I can see a bit of bulge on the backplate, I used a 1mm pad on the NVDD on the back as it seemed the stock super thin pad wasn’t making much contact after adding the 3mm pads. I had some trouble with a couple of the pads not wanting to stick, however most held in place, it seemed to be related to the material it was on, RAM and PCB had no issues, the NVDD didn’t stick very well, it was just a minor inconvenience though. I wish these pads were a bit cheaper especially considering I wasted money and time with the 2mm pads. At least they are cheaper than fujipoly pads

These bad boys brought down my memory temp by 20C max, it was at 102C while playing on my 3080. Now its between 82c to 86C

Excellent and easy to use product!

This is an excellent product and does what it says. I am running my raspberry pi 3b in the armor case. With stock thermal pads, my pi overheated in around 20 seconds while running the cpuburn test (temp > 85 degrees). Switched to Gelid pads and ran the test continuously for 40 minutes and the max temperature my pi reached was 65 degrees! I bought all the three variants, i.e., 1.5 mm, 2 mm and 3 mm for my future needs, though for raspberry pi 3b with armor case, 1.5 mm and 2 mm are sufficient. It is helpful to sand the thermal contact points of the armor case to remove the black paint it comes with. This pad is better than some of the commonly available thermal pastes, so go for it with eyes closed.
