I bought this 3080/3090 waterblock for rtx 3080 TI. Your manual lists pad instalation for 3080 and 3090 only. What types of pads should I use for my 3080 TI Given that 3080TI is more similar to 3090 than to 3080 ?

Its similar to the 3080. You only need to care about the two more Rams next to the GPU. Use the same thermal pads like on the other rams. Thats all you have to do.

in case i need repleace what type of pads (W/Km) do you use for vrams?

 

[Eddy]

Sorry... my fault... you dont need to replace anything. For the front side of the PCB.... you have to put the pads like for the RTX 3090 is shown. For the backplate, like 3080.
