You can find the cooler instructions on the Alphacool website. That must be the cooler 10290. At least the 5070ti 16gb is included in the compatibility list. I would place the thermal pads as shown in the instructions—on the cooler, not on the card.

it's on the list but it's not on the manual so...

If you look at the list and compare the Geforce RTX 5080 Aorus Master + Windforce with yours, you will see that the graphics cards have a very similar design..... https://download.alphacool.com/homepage/compatibility_list_Nvidia.pdf This is an instruction for all cards that are compatible with this cooler.
