Thermal pads are a terrible idea. You see how thick that thing is? Do you see it? Are you insane? Also way too costly for the exact same results you get with thermal paste. Totally pointless.

Thermal pads are the only option for areas with large gaps, which are often found in laptops on the chipset or VRM modules in desktops. The most efficient materials like Liquid Metal cannot span larger gaps at all and even those that can are often worse than a thermal pad.

I do agree with you about the cost and benefit in this case, however in a laptop that temp drop would be welcome in many that get quite warm.


Also it may be thinner than you think, or compress a lot, we need a banana for scale.
