    I bought this "IC Graphite Thermal Pad" pad for my RC3399 Android based MiniPC, I only needed an 15x15mm pad, I could not get the pad to stay in position it kept moving around at the slightest touch eventually i managed to screw the heatsink down.

    But as i lifted my MiniPC up the pad fell out as it was too thin, My stock pad was 1mm thick, I decided to use two layers of the new heatpad but i could not get it to stay still as i put the heatsink in place, And i could not see if the pad was still in place as the heatsink is only a few mm above board and it`s a wide heatsink.

    I decided to go back to the stock heatpad as this one is electrically conductive and i did not want to cause any damage.

    A week later i bought an 1mm thick "GP-EXTREME–Thermal pad" and installation was easy as the pad is sticky and non-conductive.

    But the temps using this pad are virtually the same as the stock pad it replaced.

    I bought the same pads for a laptop a few months ago. I actually got worse temps than the stock thermal paste. The higher temps where not much higher, around 4c higher, but I thought it would work better.
