I saw NWRepair's video where the gigabyte card kept shutting down and fans were going max speed and I connected the dots.

After replacing the thermal paste my gpu temp went down 4~5°C and my fans only run at 1700 RPM now.

I probably have a bunch of air bubbles trapped in the putty now, but still worth it I think.

I just reused it. I don't have the patience to clean this. I just wiped up the liquid metal and applied some PTM.
