Last week I applied liquid metal for the first time ever and it’s been running great! The GPU runs a lot quieter now and cooler!

Honestly, I don’t know why I did it. Could’ve very easily lost a grand.

The instructions stated to apply the LM to both the die and the cooler surface so that the two surfaces basically merge when you remount the cooler.

Temps are fine, so I assume there aren’t any air pockets
