Hey. I have a gpu that ran very hot (over 100 degrees celsius), so i bought some heat paste to try and make it run cooler. i know how to apply it to a cpu and i figured a gpu was the same from watching a youtube torturial.
When i opened my card a ati radeon hd 4800 I found that there was this chewing gum like substance that protected some of the circuits. that substance got a little ruined hen i pulled it apart.
the question is am i supposed to only apply it directly to the gpu in the same way i did to a cpu, or am i supposed to apply it to the little black plastic circuit covers that was covered by the chewing gum (which i asume is just another type of heat past)e aswell? as you can see in the pictures a little of the "chewing gum" came loose and got ruined
i Would really appreciate any answer. Im not very tech savy.
