TP-2: Economic Thermal Pad

I have a 2 year old laptop that has a AMD cpu and the hard drive that it came with was bad. I didn’t buy it new I bought it from another person and that person I trusted but not anymore because this person failed to tell me that the hard drive was bad anyways I do build desktop computer’s and I repair laptop’s and when I got it it would not boot up so long story short the hard drive cable came off from the motherboard and you can’t solder the cable back onto the motherboard so luckily it has a m.2 pcie slot so I bought a 1TB m.2 and put it in the slot for it ssd and installed it and I put windows 11 on it and it runs like new and I found this heatsink strips and I put one on the side that would get hot and I did a stress test on the m.2 and it never got hot yes warm but not hot and I really put it under a very heavy stress test and with the heatsink strip it kept it cooled. I highly recommend this this product if your computer doesn’t have any heatsink for a m.2. I will buy again.

I'm not sure this specific version of the product would be the best choice for a PC's processor. But for the Raspberry Pi, it solves so many problems. I'm using an aluminum-finned radiator with hollow, oil-filled copper tubing, which runs through an aluminum heat-sink base. Pretty standard stuff, for the Pi 4B. The copper tubing happens to run directly over the ram. Unfortunately there is quite a gap between the two (1/16"). And, thermal pastes being (generally) non-adhesive; I didn't really want to mound up a glob of it...cause I really doubt it would retain it's shape for long. This pad, however, will hold it's shape indefinitely! I cut one piece to perfectly cover the RAM, a piece which bridges the CPU and the RAM, and even a narrow wedge-like piece to fit into the gap between the copper tubes. There is so much thermal contact with the heat-sink, I can be sure that I'm getting the full potential out of this cooling device. And the fact that it's non-conductive is very reassuring! The same can't be said for all thermal pastes on the market... This product is very versatile! It cuts easily, with an exacto or utility knife, or even scissors. It's not sticky, like glue is... But it can be made to stick, a bit, by simply pressing it into place. I'd say, if you work at all with electronics or computer repair/assembly, you can't go wrong having at least one pack of this on-hand. You'll find a use for it, I'm sure. And probably when you're in a bind, and nothing else will do.

Muy buena almohadilla térmica. La utilicé para mantenimiento de mi tarjeta gráfica como reemplazo de los pads originales, y también para mejorar la disipación de calor en mis SSDs. Se adapta bien, es fácil de instalar y tiene la flexibilidad justa para cubrir los espacios sin romperse. Cumple perfectamente con lo que promete. Recomendada para quienes hacen mantenimiento o ajustes térmicos en su PC.

I was scared to buy this. I did bought it. I need it for my ASUS ROG Strix GeForce GTX 980 Ti. I opened video graphic card. I cleaned them up. I removed old thermal pad and old thermal compound paste. I put new thermal pad on it. I put new Noctua NT thermal compound paste on the GPU. After done, It works. I have no problem with it. My video graphic card still is strong. Yeah I turned HIGHEST! No problem. No overheat or crash or anything happen since MAY 22, 2020 till now. NONE! I love this new thermal pad. Thank you!

These are both inexpensive and good quality. Can't beat the price vs performance.

If you plan on using for the PS4 you will have to get 8 pieces cut about 10mmx10mm to cover the chips. If you want you can also cover the bottom side of the chips as well. Will need to plan out the cuts/pieces you need. the size 120 x 20 x 1.0 mm (1 Piece) will work just fine just ensure the chips are covered and not overlapping. Simple install opening up the ps4 just a pain. So do it right and worth while, new fan, pads and thermal paste. Seal it up and be done with it.

These Thermal Pads are soft vs other type pads, are not sticky, or difficult to work with.

Had to double up on these when replacing the cooler on an aging Titan X (cause I'm dumb and miscalculated the thickness I needed) but even when doubling them up performance was great.

Good quality product, but damn the pad sheet is extremely small to price ratio. Used it for my PS4, and didn't have any left. I won't be buying again for sure. It's expensive because of brand name. Next time I'll purchase an equivalent quality for a cheaper price. Perhaps get more for the money as well. Just a heads up to anybody that buys this.

Die Pads lassen sich leicht verarbeiten und sind relativ formstabil. Über die Wärmeleitfähigkeit kann ich mich auch nicht beklagen, ist nicht schlechter als die original Pads auf einer KFA² RTX 3070.

Kept the ssd nvme temp constant below 60 °C, happy customer

Costano un po ma tengono a le temperature delle vram della mia 2080ti, le ggdr6 possono diventare molto calde. ho utilizzato questi thermal pad anche sul mio MacBook Air 2020 intel posizionati sull'heatsink riscontrando una diminuzione di 10 gradi quando lo uso per le videoconferenze meet , eliminando in questo modo il fastidioso rumore della sua ventola, tuttavia c'e da considerare che il calore si riversa tutto sulla scocca esterna in alluminio che diventa abbastanza calda, lo consiglio se in genere utilizzate il laptop su una scrivania

How you like to meet you stay clear that's when I got mine and appeared to be all dried out and crumbly when I went to use it as another person mentioned... the only thing I can liken it to as a dried out piece of gum.
