I picked up a EVGA SC 1080 off E$bay for a reasonable amount.  Im back in the saddle again at 46 years old wearing glasses on my 4k Samsung 32" 60hz Curved refurb off Amazon.  Anyways how the heck do I get EVGA to send me the thermal pad kit for my card/ It falls into the serial list that should have had the pads in the needed areas.

Quickest way is to probably call on the phone.  But the other means are listed there as well. Just tell them precisely what you explained here and they should be able to help you out.

Bruh, 3dfx interactive gang represent!  That was my first card.  Remember the box art on those bad boys?  little 10 year old me in the store just had to have it because the box art looked cool.  I had little understanding of what a graphics card did I just knew my computer needed it to play some games on my gateway computer.

Be thankful you missed the whole Xbox 360 COD rooms back in the 2000's ;p lol, it made people tough as hell with the crap that was said in there. ;p

4K 32" is nice. But have you ever used a monitor with 120Hz or 144Hz?
I don't know what games you play, but FPS games in 60Hz is so 2006 haha.

For sure upgrade to 4K 120Hz if you can, it would be a blessing for proper gaming :)
The GTX 1080 might not like that either, maybe 1440p 120Hz would be a better match.

GL game on!
