That last chip you covered with the PTM is the NAND. Do you consider repasting the SoC itself underneath the shielding? I did it to my V1 switch basically out of the box (and again 2 months ago when I got hold of some high performance .5mm thermal pads for the RAM) and the fan noise was never a problem but I'm yet to overclock it.

Oh the NAND I put thermal pad not paste. Only put ptm on the apu There isn’t any need to go underneath the copper from what I can tell. Just going on top allows proper contact between the SOC and the cooling unit

@@TechGuyBeauYou should try remove that copper shim entirely and putting the ptm pad directly between the heatsink and cpu die, ive done that on my switch with paste and then fan hardly even turns on half the time

Hello there, now after 5months++ of usage, could you do a comparison again? From what I've read, the spec for PTM7950 gets better overtime, so really eager with the result

One question, did you put thermal pad or ptm7950 on top of the heatsink that connects to the shiel plate? Sorry if my writing is incorrect, I don't speak English and I use the translator.

Both actually. Since one is on the chip, and the other connects to the heatsink itself.

​@@TechGuyBeauthanks for replying, please could you answer me one question, did you use 0.5mm thermal pad on the heat sink? 6:21 KZread doesn't translate the subtitles very well and made this part of the video not very clear to me.

What method did you use to remove the foam that has the adhesive sticking to the fan?

Do the average 50 degree of the switch even suffice to 'cure' these

Yes it just takes a really really long time
