    Good question.
    I've used the card almost over a month now and haven't had any problems.
    As I took the card apart, I measured all the pads and checked if they were the same as in the post mentioned below. 
     
    There is one more post on the topic on ltt. Same pad sizes are used here.

    ASUS ROG-STRIX-RTX3070-08G-GAMING thermal pads
    Note: pads 10, 11, 12 and 16 - I used 1.5 mm thermal pads, which work, but after measuring the chips I think 2.0 mm pads should be the correct ones.
     
    I also sent the picture to the thermalpad.eu, so hopefully it will appear there as well.

    Can confirm that these sizes mostly work. 
    Although I made some corrections...
    PCB front thermal pads
    1. F-strip should either be 90mm long to cover the needed chips or be made of 2 strips 40mm long. Rog strix 3070 oc doesnt have any chips in the middle where the F-strip thermal pad sits ... there is really no need to make it one long strip.
     
    PCB rear thermal pads
    1. A-strips dimensions belong to C and C-strips belong to A.
    2. Regarding the dimensions of the A-, B- and C-strips ... cut the strips: A-strip (17 x 35 mm), B-strip (19 x 48 mm) and C-strip (17 x 48 mm). Reinstall the X-bracket, place the strips where they belong (I placed one side of the strip against the bracket) and mark which corners should be cut (strips A and C). 
    3. In this guide there are no thermal pads on the chips that are between B- and D-strpis and a single chip that is between the main chip and the E-strip (on these chips is written 470 00VSG d), although on the 2nd photo one can see that there should be some pads. Lets call those F. I used leftover 1.5 mm thermal pads on these and thus had to cut separate rectangles for each chip. 1.5 mm made contact with the backplate, but maybe a softer 2.0 mm pad will also fit. The C-strips chips use 2.5 mm pads and are 0.5 mm lower than the F-strip ones, so they should use 2.0 mm ones, but 1.5 mm made contact. In total I cut seven 9 x 7 mm rectangles.  
    4. If one makes the D-strip out of two pieces then there shouldnt be any gaps left between the pieces.
     
    Schematic I made...
