Review: Solved my RTX 3080 Ti overheating issue - Applied these to my RTX 3080 Ti in 2024 after the original thermal paste had degraded and the GPU was overheating. Since then, temperatures have been back to normal, and I haven't needed to reapply. A straightforward fix for a common GPU overheating issue. Would recommend for anyone in the same situation.
Review: Good on the Macbook Neo - Used to do the cooling mod on my new Macbook Neo. Works fine and is keeping it cool, letting me squeeze every ounce of power out of it. At first I didn't quite see it was split into 4 on the 1 sheet, but that was my mistake.

## Features

- PLEASE NOTE: Due to the extremely low hardness of thermally conductive pads, a more demanding installation is to be expected. Please refer to the User Manual
- MINIMIZATION OF THERMAL RESISTANCE: The thinner the pad, the lower the thermal resistance. Thanks to its good compression properties, the very soft heat conduction pad is particularly a good heat conductor
- HIGH PERFORMANCE: Based on silicone and a special filler, TP-3 also outperforms high-performance pads, especially when height differences of closely spaced chips
- VERSATILE APPLICATIONS: Heat-conducting, vibration-damping, mouldable, electrically insulating - can be easily cut to size. Ideal for RAM, chipset, IC in PC, laptop, console, graphic cards
- SAFE HANDLING: The pad contains no metal particles, is electrically insulating and non-capacitive. Handling is therefore safe, as contact with electrical parts will not cause damage

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the pad's W/m·K rating?**
A: My understanding is about 8. But I’ve used 20 and no significant difference. chips don’t get as hot as gpu and good contact is mire important. higher conductivity means less soft and compliant.  Need to make sure pads don’t hold gap open gpu to heatsink.  I put 1.5 mm Artic tp3 pads in memory chips and made deep impressions. But compliant. probably only needed 1 mm pads will redo when i get chance. 

21w/m2 doesn’t conform like this.  My old Clevo 870cu had really soft pads nobody remembers what the material was but Artic is closest I’ve found. My GTX 280M and 980m have same 100 watt rating

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Saved a GPU – Excellent Thermal Pads
*by R***D on 21 December 2025*

These thermal pads worked perfectly. A friend’s PC had stopped working properly—it would power on without the GPU installed, but wouldn’t boot when the GPU was in. After some investigation, there was a fair amount of grease buildup on the GPU (they smoke and cook a lot nearby), so I took it apart to clean it and replaced the old thermal pads with these. The ARCTIC pads were easy to work with, nicely soft, and fit well as gap fillers. After reassembling everything, the GPU worked perfectly again with no issues at all. Really impressed with the quality and performance. If you’re refurbishing or repairing a GPU or other components, these are excellent thermal pads and absolutely did the job.
