Here, we present pad that manages to win our hearts. It's the aiyunni 1.5 mm thermal pad and it's widely considered as one of all-around great pad you can buy. This thermal pad is not very sticky, it will come off completely when you want to take it off. It is dense and spongey, sticky but not too sticky. The plastic cover tape removes easily and they stick perfectly to the VRAM and mono block. It definitely adds some height (and weight) to the bed, reducing the height you can print and print.
The Glass bed holds in place on top of the stock bed with this aloneāno clips needed. It is used for memory and chokes and some capacitors. They are pliable enough unlike the Fujipoly pads which are hardly pliable. It is easy to remove non stick plastic and stuck great to clean. These will get a little sticky when they heat up.
Why We Like This:
Helps with 3d printer bed heat transfer
Transfers great and is an upgrade over many oem pads

The owltree 1.5 mm thermal pad is capable of outshining several other pad featured in this list in overall features in its price range. It is great to have a pack with the 4 most common thickness. It is made of thermal silica gel with heat conductivity of 6.0 w/mk. It is perfectly designed to stop an overheating rtx. These are squishier so they are easier to use. It is easy to remove to replace with the proper thickness pad.
These are really easy to cut using either scissors or exacto knife. It can be used in the control board of electronic and electrical products. They are squishier so they are easier to use.

This thermal pad has moderate hardness and is very suitable for heat dissipation of electronic products. It is also friendly to use for a beginner. The breakdown voltage of the silicone thermal pad above 1 mm can reach 10kv, contacting with any electronic element will not damage it. This single pad is plenty and has a lot left over. In addition to the superior cooling effect, it also provides insulation, shock absorption, extra sealing and protection for your electronic elements.
It is easier to get the pads squished and getting better contacts. These pads are softer, more efficient, and cheaper.
Why We Like This:
Non-toxic, odorless, anti-corrosion, anti-static, flame-retardant, compression, good insulation
Better temperatures and easy to apply
Provides insulation, shock absorption, extra sealing and protection

If you often find yourself scrambling for convenient and suitable pad, rmal grizzly 1.5 mm thermal pad should be your first option for buying. Thermal Grizzly's Minus Pad series features highly elastic and flexible thermal pads with exceptional conductivity that fill even the smallest gaps between components, made from a ceramic silicon formula complex and nano aluminum oxide for optimal and constant heat transfer with minimal pressure. Thanks to its unique composition, which consists of ceramic silicone and nano-aluminum oxide, it dissipates significant amounts of heat. It is made of modified silicone with metal oxides. This is a must have when refurbing your gaming console.
It comes with thickness options of 0.5mm, 1mm, 1.5mm, 2mm, and 3mm. This is much much better than the original thermal pads.

Driftice offers a variety of pad for personal choice and yet maintaining quality in all the variants. It is great for ps4 thermal pad replacement. It is used to attach some kind of heatsink or cooling plate (and hold it in place, unlike these thermal pads), but it would look hideous. It's enough to have about 2 GDDR5 modules extra, so if you have a 10GB card that uses 512mb modules, this would be the EXACT amount needed. The thermal transfer isn't anywhere near as efficient as thermal paste, and thermal paste is meant for a high pressure mounting, such as a CPU or GPU die.
These are hitting 90 degrees to add to that comes with most heat sinks. They can be squeezed and will not fall apart. If you're a miner, these pads will be worth the investment and you'll make your money back in a week from the better hashrate alone.

The coolercube 1.5 mm thermal pad's high-end materials makes sure that it ages well with use. Balance thermal resistance and viscosity can keep fill the gap, which enhance wettability and improve the thermal conductivity of contact surface. It is used for pcb surfaces, vga cards, laptops, game consoles, microcontrollers, memorys, smd components, ic processor, heatsink, 3d printer, raspberry pi and diy heat dissipation devices, suitable for beginners.
It is easy to use and perfect to use on a streaming stick that overhears like a roku stick or amazon fire stick.
Why We Like This:
Brittle, temps got worse, no compression
Perfect for a roku streaming stick that would overheat
Applied to rtx 3080 and worked well in memory cooling
