jaymillerSR Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Is the thermal pad double sided? Do I peel 1 side off or both sides Peel off on the pad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris! Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 I had no idea so I asked Jason: One side of the pad is sticky, you need to peel both sides off though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcomander Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 Does the sticky side go against the chip or the case? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris! Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 It doesn't matter as it functions to connect the CPU to the heatsink - the heatsink in this case being the case (or built into the case). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philelzebub Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 I'm having similar issues with this...One side of the pad is sticky, you need to peel both sides off though.I've removed plastic on the sticky side and placed it on the heat sink. The other side of the pad feels like paper, though, and I can't seem to be able to remove it... any help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yawor Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 There's only one sticky side. You don't need to do anything with the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
