Same, replaced the SGT4 and did not see any discolouration on my EK360 copper yet. Maybe it's a batch issue for SGT4.

Replaced with the Kingpin KPX, idle temp also dropped 2 degree for me.

famous hy-p17 putty and thermal paste from their taobao shop, first order, and they gave me some extras

i think it is 3-5c better than airhut gx14 i was using for a year.

maybe pump-out liao. gx14 would hit 85-89c in cinebench :o

Left is GX14 Right is P17, non-scientific testing but i think P17 is gud.

i recall is slightly dryer than gx14, which is slighty dryer than syy17, which is quite dryer than kyronaut

can see p17 spreader here


but i just use cross and dot dot dot on the cpu side.
plus extra line on heatsink side which i use the card to swipe down in 1 motion into a thin spread :o

btw if u buyed hy2610 putty, make sure to msg them to send the thick version!

first order they sended me thin version which looks like this and more for asic mining pcb, not for gpu pcb!

overall py17 and hy2610 i feel are better than my older gx14 and utp8
