Hi guys,

 

So i'm planning to watercool my new gpu next week, I have been using the TG Kryonaut on my CPU and GPU for quite some time now. However watching Lord Linus countless times using the Conductonaut made me wanna try it, but at the same time I remember that video about Thermal pads made from graphite. 

 

What are your option about this? Go for Conductonaut and pray to not damage the gpu, try the IC thermal pad or keep using the Kryonaut?

 

PS : it's a EK coper block with nickel plating.

 

Thank you in advance

For GPU dies, the large dies make it fairly good at transfering the heat even with conventional paste. I would stick to kryonaut, the risk is not worth it for the couple of degrees. Dont know about the pads.

For a GPU, no need for liquid metal.

 

The temps I get with plain Arctic Silver are so good already that I see no need to go with anything else.

 

So some Kryonaut for the GPU die will be plenty more than enough.
