How many sheets are there?** A: It's showing all three thicknesses that are available but you get one of whichever thickness you buy. For the lady that "wishes she would have seen this question before she ordered it" - how much thermal pad does one person need? You cut a tiny 10mmx10mm square for each use that's 25 uses per pad. **Q: Can i use this on gpu? I got msi 1080ti aero** A: I used it on my internal laptop gpu and it's worked fine so I don't see why not. Just double-check the thickness is the right one for your particular GPU **Q: I have asus gl502 vm and i have arctic mx-4 for cpu & gpu but i dunno how to know which thickness to buy for the thermal pads...???** A: These were used on a 6800 GT but had to look around a lof forums to decide. The most important thing is to measure the thickness of the old thermal pads and be sure and buy the thinner equivalent. Too thick will be bad! **Q: How many 50x50 squares are there on one sheet?** A: 50x50 i am not sure. Mine came with 3 or 4 decent sized squares, enough to do 3 to 4 little gpus and 2 gigantic ones! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality and really does make a change! *by L***N on 18 May 2020* These Thermal Pad are really useful when it comes to laptop. Reduced the temperature by 10c. Thank you. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ very good *by F***E on 7 February 2025* very good ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great to stop VRM Thermal Throttling on XPS 15 Laptops *by O***R on 11 October 2017* I bought this to improve the performance on my XPS 15 9560 laptop. This laptop is powerful, but there is a slight design fault. The VRMs on the laptop have no cooling capacity (no thermal pads or heatsinks). When you use the laptop at high load for a long period of time, the CPU and GPU temperatures may be cool, but the VRM temperatures can become really high (as high as 95C!). When this happens the laptop will thermal throttle, lowering its clock rates and reducing performance. I followed an online guide and stacked 3 of the 1.5mm thick 6W thermal pads ontop of eachother on three of the hottest VRM chips, such that the thermal pads touch both the VRM and the aluminium back panel of the laptop. This essentially turns the laptop's back panel into a giant heatsink for the pads. Since doing this mod, (as well as reapplying thermal paste) my laptop no longer thermal throttles, meaning when I play video games my frame rate doesn't randomly shoot down after about 20 minutes of gaming. Overall these did exactly what I bought them for. They were a little expensive and there are cheaper alternatives from other brands, but I wanted to be sure they were compressible enough to still allow the back panel to fit properly. ## Frequently Bought Together - ARCTIC TP-2 (APT2560): Economic Thermal Pad, 50 x 50 x 1.5 mm (1 Piece) - Thermal pad, Excellent heat conduction, Low hardness, Ideal gap filler, Easy installation, Safe handling - Blue - ARCTIC MX-4 (4 g) - Premium Performance Thermal Paste for all processors (CPU, GPU - PC, PS4, XBOX), very high thermal conductivity, long durability, safe application, non-conductive, non-capacitive - ARCTIC TP-2 (APT2560): Economic Thermal Pad, 50 x 50 x 0.5 mm (1 Piece) - Thermal pad, Excellent heat conduction, Low hardness, Ideal gap filler, Easy installation, Safe handling - Blue --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/48050132-arctic-tp-2-apt2560-economic-thermal-pad-50-x-50](https://www.desertcart.us/products/48050132-arctic-tp-2-apt2560-economic-thermal-pad-50-x-50) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-05-10*
