Yes, that's why I'm curious. It'd have been fine if it was 50 Watts increase in power, but jumping from 450 Watts to 600 Watts is really ridiculous, specially for a new bronze Corsair power supply.

I'm going to open up my PSU, GPU's, whole system and suck some dust through the stuff through a light vacuum cleaner. Let's see what happens.

just did the exactly same operation yesterday
cleaned all radiators form my watercooling system
as result my temps dropped about 10 celius, that is a huge drop for me
now it is much better and quiter

Guys, I'm really going to suck the dust through vacuum cleaner and going to apply the thermal paste.

But I'm going to totally open the GPU for the first time, don't have much of idea. Have few questions regarding the thermal paste.

1. Could putting thermal paste damage the GPU in any way? Is there any chance of getting it damaged?
2. Is it safe if I put some excessive thermal paste on the GPU?
3. If there's any factory-applied thermal paste on the GPU, can I remove it using a cotton/tissue and then apply the new thermal paste?

Any answer would be appreciated.

Unfortunately you are not going to be the first man attempting this task.
This thread is for Claymore miner. You are better off copying your questions and pasting it into Google search.
You will see answers right away.
That should have been your first thought and taking into account that you did not do that I would strongly advise you not to touch your cards at all.
