This bothered me when I assembled mine. The Palit stock cooler and all other blocks by other manufacturers for non Palit 3090's all have 100% contact on the VRM's.
The pads are good except for 1 which Ossio mentioned above, it touches but could have better contact.
Just make sure the nut doesn't touch the block, on mine it just misses the block, I did both bolts as they both touched the back plate.
I had no issue with the io plate on mine.
Edit.
Rechecked mine and found the same as others, the nut touches the back plate and bends the board. Putting the bolt in from the opposite side fixes the issue.
Got mine installed this morning, no problems with gaps on thermal pads ?(Palit 3090 Gamerock OC).
We will get an invoice from DHL in the post for the import / Uk Vat costs. Same happened when I ordered from EK earlier this year.
Anyone had there tracking info yet? Had an email yesterday saying it was being shipped and would receive an email after 9pm with shipping and tracking info.
If you had put the answer in a new post, instead of editting your post, I would have seen your reply, I don't go back and read something I've already read.
