Acer Nitro 5, the model is an AN515-54-59UV(N18C3) What the correct measurements of the thermal pads

Reus

I would like to know what the correct measurements of the thermal pads are. Hello, I have an Acer Nitro 5, the model is an AN515-54-59UV(N18C3), it has an Intel i5-9300H processor and an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 graphics card. I would like to know if the measurements in the photo are correct:

The theory with thermal pads is that the thermal module should touch all of the vram chips and the cpu and gpu for cooling. Acer uses a paste for this as that is the best way that the vram is cooled by the thermal module and they use a different paste for the cpu and gpu that can also be covered and make contact with the thermal module for ultimate cooling,

Its the same with thermal pads, you need to add or subtract the 0.5mm and 1.00mm pads until all are evenly applied to the vram chips until they are touching the thermal module and of course have enough paste on the cpu and gpu also so that the thermal module cools all these components. That is the theory and application behind applying paste and thermal pads to your laptop. I suggest that you use Thermal Grizzly products as they are of the highest quality. Good luck.
