Sizes guide
- The scrissor sign next to a size means it can be cut out from that slice of thermal pad. It is not the actual size! Example: 80x40x2mm
- One dimension size means it’s the thickness of that pad. Example: 1mm
- Two or three dimension sizes – with no scrissor sign – means it’s most probably an actual size. Example 100x14x1.5mm
About sizes
Sizes you find here come from various sources. Most of them reported by my clients whom successfully replaced their GPUs’ factory thermal pads with high quality aftermarket pads – getting significant results in their temperature drop. Some of these sizes are actual measurements and others just collected from random users on such websites like Reddit, YouTube or official / unofficial forums.
Do your own research
Please note that I cannot take any responsibility for the sizes appearing here. Do your own research as well before buying and replacing anything.
Tips
- Make sure your pads and GPU die contacts well with the heatsink.
- Always test your graphic cards and devices in controlled environment.

as I did not have 1mm thermal pads. I put one over another 0.5 in the vram of the 3060 gigabyte, but it didn’t work well, the gpu got hotter, so I simply put the 0.5mm pads, you say it should be 0.75mm, but visually I could see that the 0.5mm ones 0.5 if it makes contact with both the vram and the heatsink, am I risking my graphics card?

Before disassemble my RTX 3060 Gigabyte Gaming OC I search over internet and found 1mm and 0.75mm thermal pad would be the best option but I can’t find 0.75mm pad anywhere.
I replaced all with 1mm pad but Gpu got hot even worse.
then I decided to put 0.5 instead of 0.75.
Now I put 1mm and 0.5 and they solve thermal issue nicely.
My factory sealed card was performing around 80 to 90 c. After replacing all pad (Deepcool EK-720) and paste (MX-4) gpu is performing better then ever 45-70 c.
If this information help. Enjoy.

Hello you used 1mm and 0.5 on which parts of the gpu? can you be more specific for the placements? thank you

What did you do? How many mm did you use? My graphics card is the same.

I just replaced the thermal pads today and put in 1.5mm ones, I have had pretty awful temp performance, could this be the reason?

I applied 1mm pads on VRM and 0.5mm on VRAM. Works perfectly. Idle card is 40 degrees and 65 under max load. Thermo pads are Gelid GP-Ultimate and thermo paste on chip is Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut.

0.5 mm for the ram with a little bit of mx4 paste, and 1 mm for the 2 power rows. From 85 with 105 Hotspot to 64 and 77 Hotspot in furmark.
