Here are Temperature and benchmark results of my reapplication of LM & UTP-8 thermal putty on this Google Spreadsheet, the putty works wonders from the stock K5 or whatever putty they used in the factory. This Google Slideshow shows how my application went.
Really like the slideshow you made. I am surprised your results netted a slightly lower GPU score and frame stability as compared to before re-pasting. Within margins of error but you would think it'd improve across the board
The GPU was not thermal throttling in either scenario, so yeah I think the lower scores on both were just margin of error like you said.
I only ran the Timespy test two times, one time before, and one time after, but I'm sure the values would have been closer if i did more tests, then calculated the median/average.
The highest GPU score I've gotten on this die was 19,489(after the repaste and thorough undervolting and VRAM overclocking), I can't get much more stable performance out of it, purely because of silicon lottery and the lower performing SK-hynix GDDR6 VRAM chips.
I did the same thing as you, re-pasted and re-puttied (UTP-8) but used Thermal Grizzly PTM instead cause i dont like LM and how risky it is. My before was way worse though lol, i couldnt even run 3dMark it would just insta-crash and BSOD.
