My last wish is to repaste/repad my GPU...
... then when i want i can do it with my 4070-ti with ease (once trained all always becomes easier).

It lost 4<7°c when i applied MX4 to the chip, but this time i'll use MX5 and change the therm pads too.

3060XC : TPU review //\\ Paste and Pads

Thanks for advices. especially dimensions, i don't read same as what i view on photos !!

//

Also, i will have to do the Z390M-Plus Prime, motherboard, i search info about it for the pads thickness...

DIY : 6.5x1 cm + 7.5x1 cm
1mm ..? looks like !

SO :
120x20 (cut in two) Thermal Grizzly Minus

120x20 (cut in two) Gelid Extreme - my choice

ARCTIC TP-2 120x20 (cut in two)
ARCTIC TP-3 120x20 (cut in two)

Extreme Odyssey 120x20 (cut in two)

//


VRAMs can be cut out: 80x40x2mm scissor
Set of three VRAMs #1: 40x15x2mm
Set of three VRAMs #2: 40x15x2mm
Set of two VRAMs: 25x15x2mm


The EVGA 3060 XC has two sets of three modules, each roughly is 40x15x2mm and has an additional set of two modules with size of 25x15x2mm.

For 3060XC :

2x2cm (1mm ?) backplate

2mm... what do you think ?:
2mm perhaps.jpg

ALL dimensions of GPU internals:

TOTAL (in cm) of GPU internals (backplate 2x2 is covered by mboard leftovers). Gelid Ultimate but i'll miss a tiny piece... will use mboard leftovers again :p

8x1.5
+
7x0.5
+

4x1

Paste :
MX6 for all.

Looks like good ?
