    You can use 25x25. But generally, you should use thermal paste because it is much cheaper and works better than the pad.
    Please remember to include @AnhEZ28 when you want to reply back to my comment so that I can check your response.
    Thank you and have a nice day!

    thank you - my main reason for choosing the pads is because i dont have to change them - ever.
    and direct-die they do a good job and perform like a MX-4 (so not great but ok)

    ps normal temps while gaming CSGO @33°C ambiet was 60°C CPU and 57°C GPU - so there is enough headroom
