I gained 5-6° in stress test on a gtx 1060 6 Gb which is getting old, this will allow me to make it last longer.
Ideal for changing the thermal pads on my GTX 1080 G1.
However, contrary to the description, one of the product images can be misleading as it suggests that there are 3 pads supplied when there is only one in the pouch. It is only there to show that there are 3 types of pad thickness (2mm, 1mm, 0.5mm)
0.5mm thickness makes this pad susceptible to tearing. 0.7 or 0.8mm would be perfect.
Apart from this defect, the pad does its job.
As said in another comment: has Minus in name only. This Pad has almost no flaws (except that it's a bit of a pain to remove from its packaging): very malleable, anything but brittle (even with time: I recently repasted a computer padded with MinusPad, it still keeps all its shape and properties, where other Pads start to break or sag), with a beautiful bevelled surface and quite practical.
It's well worth the price considering the quality!
Used to mount a personal heatsink on the VRM of my micro-ATX motherboard (Gigabyte GA-H67MA-USB3-B3).
The thermal pad is easily cut with a 9mm cutter. The hardest part is to remove the plastic film and mount it (no mistake) on the VRMs.
Good adhesion on the surface, and good hold.
