In a recent video, I was called out for my 'spatula' method of applying thermal paste to a GPU die. For a long time, I've thought that, for exposed dies, you needed to manually make sure that there was a thin layer of paste covering the entire die. But as the internet pointed out, I might've been wrong...

Thank the youtube algorithm for pointing me towards you, nice informative video ^^

I like how you corrected yourself. Great video

I usually like to spread the paste onto the surface of the IHS or die so it doesn't risk any corners being left uncovered. I tried using the regular dot method, but it still had some bare spots on the very edges. Using extra paste may help, but it creates a huge mess that is a pain to clean up (and potentially dangerous to the components due to the risk of knocking something off). The most important part is making sure everything is covered, 1-3c isn't enough of a difference to matter

The Verge method is always the answer.

i love using the heaven bitchmark

I applied some thermal paste to my phone when reassembling it, glad to know it's better I put more than necessary than less.

On small dies yes, but on larger ones you definitely want to spread it! A GPU is not a CPU, you must cover every corner of it!

Discovering this through experimentation and admitting your original hypothesis was wrong makes you a great scientist. Thank you for the short!

The problem you run into is that if there is any die exposed that will 100% cause damage, and it'll happen faster with higher power draw cards than lower power draw cards, the only time this isn't the case is if this part of the die has a temp sensor (which not all of it does) as in that case it can throttle/shut down etc, if it doesn't have such a sensor in that portion of the die (the corners and edges usually don't until much much more recently), I killed an rx 480 this way under LN2 a few years back because a portion of the memory controller wasn't covered and as a result the memory controller got too hot and died, iirc buildzoid has managed to kill a core that way too, but just as a point of note, this is why I generally recommend spreading manually on any exposed die where possible

Thank you so much for not misleading viewers and giving helpful information. There are "Will it survive?" CPU stories and other misleading stories that waste the time of viewers for views. This was short, to the point, proven, demonstrated and has provided sufficient information. Thank you

In other words, the standard recommended application method of the last two decades.

No questions, but I really enjoyed this video. Keep up the awesome work and entertaining format!

for a GPU, always do an X-shape, it'll cover everything, and that's necessary with die components, not as necessary with CPUs which have heat spreaders.

In modern GPUs with a bigger die, spreading can help, so yeah, it's always relative

From an ihs if any corners are left it's usually fine in lower power chips. But anything with an exposed die should be 100% covered, even better if it leaks off the sides too.

Fun fact, thermal pastes are even silk screen printed in some industrial cases. Too much thermal paste will have poor performance because not every assembly can be torqued down enough and industrial thermal pastes are more viscous & dense. They're harder to spread & compress.
Thankfully consumer electronics are quite idiot proof in this case.
Larger dies with heat sinks AMD & Puget systems recommend either stencil spreading or X method.

Thanks man very informative, building my first PC and was worried, so many complicated dots and x or t shapes like what the heck haha

This topic gets rediscussed and retested again and again and always comes to this exact conclusion...

That was short sweet and super informative.
Thanks for the short.
