Really started loving these guys for cooling supplies. For thermal pad, it's super easy to work with and does help lower temps...just don't expect it to be earth shattering differences. It's a thermal PAD after allCons- Price for the average user (non-enthusiast)- Need some good fingernails to peel off the plastic film without risking tears or pulling some of it apart. Just take your time if biting your fingernails always ends up being more convenient than trimmers...Pros- THE enthusiast solution for pads, but may be overkill price wise for the average user. Much more expensive for a few degrees difference. Worth it for me by far though- About the best quality pad I've used.

I got this because I was in the process of upgradding my cpu so I decided to clean out my open loop and monoblock/gpu block out. I took apart my 1080 ti and noticed the thermal pads on the memory were off on some chips. It made me remember when i got the card new i was ablt to do a 400+mhz oc on the memory for a bit and i had to turn off the oc because it mad it unstable. Also the pads were cheap 0.5mm thermal pads. I replaed then with 1.5mm and mashed them down to cover the whole memory chip. I would have took pics if I knew how well it would work. Basically I increased the heat surface area to transfer to the vga block by using over cut and over thick cuts of thermal pads. I noticed right at boot.

XBOX ONE X - opened the box, scraped all the trash off MY new property and added perfectly cut-to-size pads of this minus 8 "clay". Don't forget the chips off to the side. (No, I used TIM on the GPU... so there). I say "clay" because it really is kinda like a maleable clay. It is sticky on both sides, too. This material is sold as 2mm and when I scraped off the "old dried-paste" it measured just below 2mm thick. (Yes, I said it was "dried-paste"). So far so good. Put the box back together and I don't hear a fan.... EVER. Under heavy load, light load... the fan might be unplugged right? I get up close and listen and it's on but a few feet away it's silent.

Anyone that owns an X570 Taichi motherboard knows that Asrock messed up the chipset fan design on this board in favor of aesthetics. This means that the fan gets completely blocked by your GPU card. It was fine initially, running at ~60 C idle, ramping to 75C under constant load. But 1 year later, I found games crashing on my system after a few hours of play, and it turned out that my SB chipset temps were peaking at 85C!I tore down the chipset fan and replaced the factory TIM with these pads, then buttoned it back up. Now my idle temps have been restored to ~60 C, and under load, I am peaking at 70C. These temps are well within spec, but still not as good as the competition (MSI).

I had a nvme drive getting up to about 60+C with a different pad. Cooling the chassis didn't seem to help so the pad seemed to be more of a insulator than conductor.I swapped the old pad out with one of these and the difference is indeed well worth the purchase!If the chassis temp comes down so does the nvme temp!Temp was about 60C and now I'm seeing temps down in the mid 45CIn my situation I am using this pad to conduct heat from the nvme to a industrial grade embedded computer where the chassis is the heatsink and the fans are external and not attached to the chassis.If you're wondering if I recommend this product then yes, yes I do. It works.The packet comes with 1 pad that will need to be cut to length to fit your nvme or ssd.

Hey here. Used this on a 1080 FTW2 in my system that I’ve had for a year and had quite trouble. I bought this and some NT-H2 to redo the thermal paste and now I’ve got leagues lower temperatures. Down by nearly 10 C in some cases but then again, the last time I opened my card I screwed up a few of the pads and I found that my last thermal paste application was the worst I’ve done so...A bit of a hassle since the FTW2 card has so many small and thing point for thermal pads but this should be completely worthwhile. Maybe help with value too when it comes time to flip the card. It’s good stuff and I had a little left over but couldn’t get the back of the VRMs on my card through the backplate,

Between this and another, I'll just say "high end" brand of thermal pads, Both have helped stabilize another 100mhz overclock on my 2 gtx 970's (One card thermal grizzly, one card is the other brand) I don't think my specofic card monitors even temps but the gpu temps have dropped about 5c total on both. I'm not sure if the padding helped that or not.. I am sure the overclock I wanted to run was NOT stable before and NOW IS..I do prefer the stick of gum type of design rather than the square the "other brand had" it's easier to eyeball cuts quickly and accurately.I only had one issue, not worth a star loss though. After taking off the protective plastic it's not as sticky as the other brand and wouldn't work unless its on top.

Item:- Product is as expected, knocked 6C off of mainboard VRM temps, 5/5People:- It should be habit when shopping on Amazon, that you read the reviews AND look at the current seller that is selected- I did this, and realized that people were getting possible fakes from individual sellers because they just clicked 'add to cart' without lookingProduct:- I purchased mine from Titan Rig, the package looked legitimate and was sealed, but did not include the authenticity card as others have noted.- I think this package of Minus Pad 8 does not normally come with the CoA, though my smaller pack of Minus Pad 8 did.I don't think others have received fakes in this case,

Understand that when you buy this you are getting a piece roughly twice the size of a postage stamp. With that being said, this is by far the best thermal product I have ever used in the twenty years I have been into computer hardware. This thermal pad lowered the operating temperature of my M2 ssd by 10c. I have a plextor Mp8e running on a standard m2 to pcie 4x adapter with a heatsink. My average temps while running ATTO before were around 40-45c (30-35c idle) using Gelid Extreme thermal paste. After application of the Thermal Grizzly pad the range was 30-35c during ATTO testing (26-28c idle). This is a superior product to all others in the category. If you need thermal gap filler this is the one for you.

I bought this to replace the stock thermal pads on my Gigabyte Z370N WIFI ITX motherboard. I cut a strip for the VRM heatsink as well as the M.2 SSD heatsink. The VRMs now take significantly longer to heat up and temps overall are reduced 5-20C depending on the CPU load. The 960 Evo SSD was throttling due to high temps (75C+) with the stock thermal pad but now stays much cooler (65C or less) and no longer throttles. This thermal pad is expensive but did exactly what I hoped for and is far better than the cheap pads Gigabyte uses on this particular motherboard. I wish I had swapped the pads out sooner!

I bought this from onyx pc and the certificate in the package checked out genuine so that's good. The package itself was in one piece and it shipped pretty quick. The product itself seems pretty good quality, I used it on my Xbox one x. Only complaint I have is that there isn't enough for how much you pay, there also wasn't enough of the pad to get every chip on the Xbox one x. Temporarily i am using the bits and pieces that I had to cut off on the chips that weren't covered. I also I am not sure which why the pad is supposed to go there's a dotted sided and a smooth side.

The best in its class. I have used this multiple times, the last use for this was on a playstation 4 pro. I used this to replace the junk factory ones along with the matching thermal paste and this made a huge a difference on the fan running full blast. Prior to the fan ran full speed was very noisy and didnt blow out much heat. After the install fan has never ran full speed and puts out alot more heat. This product is the best and will be the only one i ever use again. Did this prior to with cheap product and didnt change anything... this product did and is awesome.

I bought these thermal pads to replace some thermal pads on my laptop, which had become dirty/damaged after disassembly of the laptop several times. The Grizzly pads were very easy to cut to the measured sizes and just the right thickness to fill the gap that my old pads did. The effectiveness is also better than stock, with idle temps now around 5C lower and load temps about 3C lower. They're a little pricey for the amount that you get, but in this situation, you're paying for the best. I'll definitely choose Grizzly again for my future thermal pad needs.

I bought this for my GPD Pocket since the case is aluminum. I lined the entire heatpipe with this thermal pad.The pad was a bit smaller than I expected, but that was my fault for not measuring out 30x30mm.With the pad applied, my GPD Pocket's fan (with Windows 10) went from always audible to actually turning off at idle and being much quieter overall.The pad conducts heat very well. There are now hotspots on the bottom of my GPD where the pad touches the shell, which I am happy with since that's heat that isn't forcing the CPU to throttle.

I was originally going to return these because I needed the 0.5mm variety for my GPU's memory. While using these 1mm thick pads caused very poor contact between my GPU's die and the heatsink, moving these to the VRMs solved this issue. They are now helping to keep my VRMs cooler. For the time being, I'm using thermal paste between my heatsink and memory, which is sub-optimal, as it makes a mess. However, once I get some 0.5mm pads, I will use those. My GPU temps are rock-steady now, and the VRMs are staying a little cooler.
