Thermal pad help

[Vudian]

Do I need to put thermal pads on the parts labeled r47 and r22? And if not, what would happen if I did?  It's the gtx 970

Those are just coils so they don't really get hot at all but check the instruction manual it will say where to place everything and what thickness of pads also.

I do have it. Was just wondering more then anything because I have seen others put it on them in videos.

Would it be bad if I put extra pads there,  because I think I did that with my 1st gpu I did,  was being over zealous getting blocks in place

If they don't have it in the instructions I would leave it, if you were to put thermal pads there it could impact the block from making proper contact to the rest of the GPU and components.

Thank you for the response,  I'll just take apart my other block and check to be safe.
