@Yongkit how about Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme?

i just got the paste but have not gotten around to replace it yet for my gpu...
longevity wise...
Don't use Kryonaut Extreme on GPU. It dried up very fast for me. These pastes are designed to be used for a one off benchmark run or sub-zero temps. Even for my CPU, it dried up so fast. Go for PTM for GPU. Paste and forget. Really.

PTM7950 is really solid. used for more than 2 years on my 3080, the hotspot delta still hovers around 11-13 deg Celsius.

@ragnarok95 is this possible? --> My purpose is I don't want to adjust the airflow inside directly and want to push out less warm air by using [cold air sinks] too // not heatsink

My mini PC had an aluminium case with a flat top, so I placed a spare cpu heatsink i had on it. No tape or paste. Full load temps dropped by 10C.
