Hello! I am going to repaste and thermal pads my strix 3090. This is my first time doing this. What size screwdriver did you use? Also how do you know the exact shapes to cut the thermal pads? Thank you
Greate video…I has the same GPU so when you cleaning the gpu did used only warm water??? Or accoho mix with water ??how often has to replacement the thermo space?? My secong question is why those fan they won’t stop pin??? Even I am not gaming liked my old Rtx 3060 they stop pin the fan when is not gaming,, did you known how to turn to auto fan ??
Two questions if you see this: 1) Does opening up a GPU to apply new thermal pads and paste void warranty? 2) How easy is for someone who has never disassembled a GPU before like this? My card caps out at 83c which isn't terrible but I feel like maybe some newer thermal pads/paste after two years would do some good for the temps.
@@KrunoEti I know I'm super late to reply but I actually moved the location of my PC and the airflow alone helped, temps haven't touched above 72c since the move. Might still replace thermal pads and apply new paste since I got this card in Oct. 2019, I'm assuming there's still room for improvement on temps even if it's only minor. Edit: Also forgot to mention that at times my temps were actually hitting 88-93c since my computer was barely above the floor, situated between my desk and bed (which was the cause for such insanely poor airflow, absolute dumb mistake on my part for being lazy).
Thanks for the video! I am about to start working on replacing the thermal pads on various Geforce RTX 3090 of different brands: MSI, Asus, Palit, Gigabyte... I would like to make sure that the thickness of the pads will be right for those cards, considering that they come from different brands. I read online that (1,5mm) is good enough for both sides of the cards. What do you recommend? Thank you!
the screws on the die's mounting spring mechanism are smaller than the rest and the screwdriver is not small enough for them. Couldn't unscrew them with the suggested screwdriver.
yo Kruno, u did a great video again! I replaced the pads and thermal paste from my eagle 3080 ti watching your 3080 replacement video. Its impressive these expansive cards have so poor pads and in this particular asus strix does not have a coper heatsink.
Thanks for nice comment! That true, for that amount of money they dont have coper and thermal pads are one of worst. Only on Evga I see pads that doing good job for long time :/
tbh, the pads are the least issue..not necessary to change them at all. the impact is the thermal paste. For some reason, basically all manufacturers are shipping their products with the worst paste ever. My msi ntb with 3080, i just changed paste on gpu and cpu and immediately gained 10% of performance
@@KrunoEti yea, kind of…with a new card, not necessary, nothing wrong with the new pads that are there..considering that Asus has pretty good stock thermals. I would just change the paste and wait with pads for a second round
Hi, great video I have a doubt about the pads on the front side I get that the ones around the processor are 2mm and the ones on the side are 1.5mm but what about that middle one, the one between the processor and the right side. That counts as side or around the processor? I fell the stock one more thicker than 1.5mm Thank you so much.
great video, i think of repaste my rtx strix 3090 too, but looking at the temp.... i run mine under full load with stable diffusion at 71C max,..... i wonder how it comes to 88C deg for you now. i have a y60 case.... not the best airflow but working. so 70C seems fine to me.
Here is the small and usefull program and you can check it your ram temps: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-07KmBpZvk6k.htmlsi=4oiS2VeU0wtnmi6I
Hello i know this video is quite old but do you possibly know if it is possible to take of the led's on the front of the gpu, possibly in the form of a strip or pcb in order to replace it with another? I bought a used card and was hoping i could open it up and replace the discolored led's.
Awesome video! One question I had was what size pads for the front side of the cooler? You showed the exact size and location for the backplate, but then you didnt do the same for the cooler side. Let me know, thanks! Great content!
@@sangyuenlim2504 just buy 1 large 2mm pad and 1 large 1.5 pad it will be enough for the gpu and you will have so much more left to replace again the future
@@KrunoEti Thankyou for the update :) , followed ur exact method but with Gelid Extreme pads and got similar resuts on the same card , thankyou again for the tutorial , first time doin this and your tutorial helped a lot (after repad i never surpassed 92° on memory with 75% fans ) its been 3months
you just scratched the surface on the cooler with the plastic spoon ... >.< PLZ NEVER DO THIS! Also, see where the pads need to go ON THE BOARD, then put the new pads on the components on the board, not the cooler! Then you for sure know they cover 110%
