G752VY repaste advice wanted

[oldestfart]

The time has come for a repaste on my G752VY, and I've read the excellent guides mentioned in these forums.

I've decided on a Thermalright TF8 Thermal Compound Paste (13.8 W/mK), for the CPU/GPU repaste.

For the PCH and everything else I have chosen to use a thermal pad with a Thermal Conductivity 12 W/mK. This is the Gelid Solutions GP-EXTREME–Thermal pad, and comes with in different thicknesses of 0.5mm, 1.00mm, 1.5mm, 2.00mm and 3.00mm.

I could do with some advice as to which thicknesses of pads to order in advance for different components, and would like to hear from anyone who has undertaken this task before.

I would be interested in the correct thickness pad for the m.2 SSD

Hi, I didn't go with the standard m.2 metal plate cover which I've dumped, instead opting for the heatsinks in the piccies attached. Can supply links if required. No throttling on either NVME whatsoever, several degrees cooler than standard, but the answer to your query was "1.5mm"...

Very nice why the two different sinks? and what holds these in place

Hi, the slanted one is so as to follow/fit the laptop body shape and still fit the plastic ram/m.2/HDD cover on, that one has self adhesive thermal tape onto single sided m.2.

The squarer one fully encloses a double sided 4Tb Sabrent m.2 NVME, which is my main drive, with thermal tape top and bottom.

Probably easiest to provide links?

Very cool great post should be helpful to a lot of G752 users and thanks for the links.

What is the size of the thermal pads for the PCH and the GPU Ram chips?
