Walkthrough video showing the process of opening an ASUS 3080 TUF to replace the thermal pads with custom-size, high conductivity, thermal pads.

Procedure is the same for the 3080Ti and 3090 TUF.

Note: pads had actually been replaced before the video.

You can get the custom GPU thermal pad sets from there:

Material used (when changing the pads, before recording):
- Cleaning: Paper towel + 99% isopropyl alcohol
- Thermal pads: pre-cut, custom set, 20 W/m-K.
- Thermal paste: previously replaced with SYY 15.7 W/m-K paste

Results:
- Included in the video at the very end
- Memory temperature drop of ~16°C under load
- GPU core temperature reduced by 1°C (i.e. no change, which us good!)
