CLEANING THE PCB
CWipe off the remains of any thermal compound from the GPU core and
HBM by using a non-abrasive cloth or q-tip. EKWB recommends the use of
denatured alcohol for removing TIM leftovers. Additionally, remove all of
the stock thermal pads from both sides of the PCB.
STEP 5
APPLYING THERMAL COMPOUND
Lightly cover AMD GPU and HBM chips with enclosed EK-TIM Ectotherm
thermal grease. EKWB recommends to apply the thermal grease in a cross
form for best performance (see sample picture).
