I'm really in trouble with the thermal pads used in VGA ram sink


Recommended Posts

Today I finally got my Arctic cooling accelero xtreme plus II but I could not install the cooler because my brother threw away the thermal pad that came with the cooler (he thought it was garbage?!!?!) I have been looking all over on the internet to find a thermal pad but I'm not sure whether it is the right one. Can someone help me with this please?

with all the cpu coolers and vga coolers I have use some have come with pads I toss them and use good paste instead though I have never used the cooler your using

:whoa: You can easily kill cards if you put on a block without pads that was designed to be used with pads.

 

Good example - my new EK block for my 4870X2 requires .5 mm and 1 mm pads for many components. Without them, the card will FRY on first boot. :yucky:
