    To determine the correct thermal pad size and replace thermal putty on your VRAM:

    Determine Thermal Pad Size

    1. Check Manufacturer Specs: Refer to the device manual or website.
    2. Measure Existing Pads: Measure length, width, and thickness of current pads.

    Replace Thermal Putty with Pads

    1. Common Sizes: Typically 1.0mm to 2.0mm thickness.
    2. High-Quality Pads: Use pads with good thermal conductivity (e.g., 6 W/mK or higher).

    Replacement Steps

    1. Remove Old Putty: Clean VRAM and heatsink with isopropyl alcohol.
    2. Apply Thermal Pads: Cut to size and place on VRAM chips.
    3. Reassemble: Ensure proper alignment and contact.

    Example: Use 1.0mm thick Arctic Thermal Pads or Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad 8.
