If you do at all?
My old GTX 560Ti was hitting 57C at idle!! So I decided to take off the heatsink and replace the thermal compound. The stinking heatsink didn't want to let go so when it finally gave way my fingers got sliced up lol
After calling myself stupid several times (well deserved) I finished the job in roughly 45min. Went ahead and gave the rest of it a wipe down as well and looks almost new
Results? 37C!!! a 20C drop baby!
