    I went to replace my GPU thermal pad with AS5, only to later read that there is no contact between the heatsink and the gpu since the thermal pad was thicker. Right now I have extra AS5 just to make contact, but I know thats a crude way, especially since my gpu idle temp is 80C. Does anyone know where I can buy a replacement thermal pad or copper shim? Thanks.
