ARCTIC TP-3: Premium Performance Thermal Pad, 120 x 20 x 1.5 mm (4 Pack)

These thermal pads were exactly what I needed to replace the dried up bad ones on my rtx 3080. I really enjoyed how well packaged these were and how easy it was to cut and size to what I needed. The only downside is that the sizes I needed for certain spots were not offered and I had to double up on some of them to achieve the right thickness. Once I had the pads installed it was a no brainer, things worked as I expected them too, temps dropped about 10 degrees and I can breathe a breath of fresh air knowing that my card was gonna stay cool. I still have a bit extra for the next time I need to replace them, so that's a bonus.

The ARCTIC TP-3 Thermal Pad is a top-tier solution for anyone looking to optimize heat dissipation on GPUs, laptops, or other sensitive electronics. It is incredibly easy to work with, cutting cleanly to size and providing a perfect, uniform contact between components. The 1.0 mm thickness is ideal for filling gaps effectively without adding unnecessary bulk, and the performance is noticeably better than generic pads. A reliable, high-performance thermal interface that gives the user peace of mind knowing the hardware is staying cool.

I got these 1.5mm pads for the VRMs of an ASUS Phoenix RTX 3060. I was taking it apart to replace a faulty fan and took the opportunity to replace the pads, which were a bit dry and flaky. These new pads did seem like a perfect fit for my particular use case. They're super easy to cut to the desired size with a precision knife. You do want to cut on a surface that can handle a sharp blade (like my silicone soldering mat), or at least on a clean and smooth surface you don't mind damaging. I had no trouble removing the adhesive films with said knife also, and the pads did stay well put on the heatsink. They're soft and delicate though, so you really want to handle them with care and avoid pinching them or applying any unnecessary pressure, especially with thinner variants. You may notice a bit of pad not making full contact with a choke in one of the photos. That's just the very corner of the pad, and it got that way due to user error. It is otherwise making good contact with the chokes; I just wanted to clarify this in case you noticed. I can't directly monitor the temps of the VRMs in my particular card, but it has been over two weeks of heavy use and I haven't had any issues. I'm pretty confident the pads are doing their job well and that they'll continue to do so for a good while. We'll see.

Arctic is my go-to brand for PC cooling, and these pads are no exception. They're durable, stick well, are easy to resize and fit, and they perform admirably, provided you use them for their intended purpose. These saved my NVMe SSD from overheating issues, and saved my laptop! The VRM chips below my APU were getting scorchingly hot, but these pads performed what no other couldn't and have kept them nice and cool for months now. Great value, great product!

Perfect. Highly recommended.

I used this for a phone repair when graphite sheets weren't an available option, and they do a great job of transferring heat, almost a little too well! My only complaint is that they rip a little too easily and crumble when handled too much! Overall, I would definitely recommend these!

Excelente

Works good. Not too fragile as to tear it too easily. Used with SSD heatsink due to msi edge motherboards stock heatsink not properly latching closed onto my WD SN 7100 1tb SSD, used as a boot drive. Keeps temps cool on the SSD. Easy application of this thermal pad and equal thickness being applied unlike thermal paste where over application could cause dripping, oozing, messy messy..

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.

I installed it on my Asus laptop, and it works great.

Avevo bisogno di un pad per sostituire appunto i pad termici sul mio intel nuc, il dislivello tra cpu e chipset, tra i core e il dissipatore, è di circa 6/7 decimi di millimetro , quindi uno spessore non in commercio per quel che ho potuto capire. Questo pad mi ha risolto il problema, è una specie di pasta termica, non un cuscinetto siliconico, come altri prodotti che avevo acquistato in passato, sotto la pressione si modella delicatamente e prende la forma del componente, conserva anche un pò di elasticità. Ovviamente in caso di disassemblaggio del dissipatore, a mio avviso va sostituito e messo nuovo. Ottimo, mi ha risolto il problema, buona anche la dissipazione, il mio mini pc è rinato, Artic poi è un mito in questo campo, uso le sue paste termiche da una vita, ed a mio avviso è anche molto seria nel dichiarare le prestazioni reali dei suoi prodotti, vi consiglio di dare un occhio al loro sito per capire di cosa parlo. Un acquisto consigliato, unico appunto, va maneggiato ed eventualmente tagliato, con molta delicatezza, mettendo in conto, eventualmente, un pò di spreco, se dovete ritagliarlo per chip molto piccoli, come è accaduto nel mio caso. Io l'ho tolto dalla pellicola più rigida e l'ho tagliato con una lametta, sagomandolo in maniera precisa e semplice, poi l'ho applicato sollevandolo con un pinzetta, stando attendo a non strapparlo, dopo applicato si può sagonare ancora facendogli prendere la forma necessaria all'applicazione per cui ci serve. Questa è stata la mia esperienza. Se ci sono novità per ciò che riguarda prestazioni o durata, mi riservo di aggiornare la recensione.

goed spul , doet zijn ding

Ekran kartım için aldım 3 sene sonra hem laptopta hem kartta termal pad değişimi için kullandım dereceler %20 %30 düştü almışken bilindik marka almak önemli gerçekten çok memnunum
