Repasting my vega 56; Should I replace the thermal pads while I am at it?

So recently I noticed my reference vega 56 has been running a bit hotter and struggling a little more, so I picked up some thermal paste (Corsair TM30) and it just occurred to me that if I am replacing the paste, should I replace the pads while I am at it? Is there any worry if the pads don't sit the exact same some depressions in them may reduce contact when I put the card back together? Also would be open to some recommendations of decent pads (looking for good conductivity and a reasonable price:perfomance)
