What temperature is your VRAM at? If the VRAM temps are already fine then there is no reason to change them.

No, as others have said. Too thin/stick will be an issue. Paste can give to a 5-8°Drop  pads not as much, they generally perform about the same. thickness has to me withing 0.25mm (compressed). If they're not torn its unlikely to get noticeable performance change.
