(Orion 3000-620) Thermal pad thickness for GPU, Is 1.5 mm the right size before opening the laptop?

DukeNukem1 · January 29

Has anyone changed thermal pads and remembers how thick they were? I'm planning to replace thermal paste and pads and thickest I have is 1.5mm.

I don't wanna open my GPU and then realize I don't have correct size pads 😒

Acer does not specify the thickness and/or what type of thermal pads the NVidia RTX3070 gpu (or if you meant the RTX2070?) as the RTX3070 gpu was never fitted as an oem option gpu in the PO3-620 desktops by Acer with this desktops 500W PSU, as it will not have enough power as it requires a min 650W PSU, also and as this product is an NVidia product, you will have to consult NVidia for these details to get the exact information and exact specs of the thermal pads.

But what I recommend that you do is this, use the high quality Thermal Grizzly Minus Pad Extreme which come in two sizes of 120x20mm and 100x100mm @ thicknesses of 0.5.1.0.1.5,2.0 and 3.0mm. But you will first need to take the RTX3070 (or if you meant the RTX2070?) gpu apart and measure the thermal pad thickness approximate size and thickness first and order the appropriate pads from Thermal Grizzly or a supplier, as there is no information on the gpu pads. Good luck and hope all this helps you out.

The below gpu list are the oem Acer fitted gpu's to the Predator Orion 3000 PO3-620 model and the NVidia RTX2070 SUPER 8GB GDDR6 was the highest spec gpu.
