Does anyone have the dimensions for the thermal pads on the 1080ti ftw3? I've been told that I need .5 and 1 mm thick pads, 1mm ones for the power and .5 for the memory, but i am not sure how long or wide of pad i need for these areas. I don't want to take my 1080ti apart just to measure these parts, as it's a pain to get it in and out of my case. does anyone have the dimensions or have a picture of the ftw3 disassembled where it clearly shows the thermal pads on the card? or would anyone who has an easier to access 1080ti ftw3 mind taking theirs apart and taking a clear picture of the side with the pads on it? I would appreciate it greatly. Also, if you have a ruler and could put it somewhere in the pic where i could reference it to the gpu, that would be awesome c:. I will eventually do this myself if no one helps, but it will take much longer.

when I am done replacing the pads with much better pads, i will post my temp results so people can decide if they think it's worth it for them.
