Anyone know the proper thermal pad thicknesses for this card? Card was running hot so ended up pulling the heatsink to repaste. Pads tore and need to confirm the size before ordering and messing around. Thanks..

I think it's best to use the tech support form, and check your spam folder for replies

Let me know if you find this. I'm about to repaste and repad and would like to make sure I have the right sizes.

I used Thermalright's 12.8 W/mK Thermal Pads from Amazon. 1.5mm and 2mm. The first two strips next to the bracket are the 1.5mm, the rest are the 2mm. Start all the screws, tighten down the heatsink screws in a crisscross first, tighten down the GPU bracket screws last.

Hey man. I used putty. PP TG10. Im really happy with the results. This particular type of putty isn't in production but I found some on eBay. Also, slather the chip in thermal paste. ASRock missed a corner of the chip on mine so the repaste/ re putty did help.

Thanks for the replies guys, my card keeps shutting my whole pc off , i repasted it and the temps dropped but i got a shutdown today so i will probably need to change out the pads
