Thermo interface aspire 7 a715-41g. Which thermal conductivity on the used liquid thermal pods?

Hey, in my laptop aspire 7 a715-41g on the chip of GPU memory as thermo interface was used the liquid thermal pods(thermal putty/thermal gel) sry, I don't know the exectly name of this term in english. The question is next. Which thermal conductivity( W/m.k ) on the used liquid thermal pods?

12.5 W/mk is the highest conductivity paste on the market like Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut: https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/best-thermal-pastes/#h-C7aqkuZoH7

Well, as I understood, it is the thermo paste, not liquid thermal pods, which was used for memory of GPU

15W/mK is the highest conductivity for Thermal Pads (not pods): https://nabcooling.com/surprising-differences-between-12w-mk-15w-mk-thermal-pads/

However, most laptop manufacturers tend to use one of the following thermal interface materials:

1. Thermal Paste/Grease

• This is a viscous, grease-like compound typically made from metal oxide particles suspended in a silicone or hydrocarbon base.
• Common thermal conductivity ranges from 3-8 W/m.K for desktop CPU pastes.
• For laptop GPUs, manufacturers may use slightly higher conductivity pastes around 5-10 W/m.K.

1. Thermal Pads

• These are soft, conformable pads made from silicone or non-silicone materials.
• Their thermal conductivity is usually lower, ranging from 1-6 W/m.K typically.

1. Liquid Metal Thermal Compounds

• These are liquid metal alloys like Gallium-based products.
• They offer extremely high thermal conductivity around 30-80 W/m.K.
• But are less common in laptops due to potential risks.

So in summary, if Acer used a thermal paste/grease on the GPU, it was likely in the 5-10 W/m.K conductivity range. If they used thermal pads, it may have been around 3-6 W/m.K.

Without specific details from Acer, those would be the most probable thermal conductivity ranges for the liquid thermal interface material used on that laptop model's GPU.

Well, i have the liquid thermal pods only on the memory-chip of GPU(it's not my photo, but i have the same). I suppose that they don't produce the big amount of warm. How do u think it's okey, to buy smth like HY234(thermal putty)
