1mm pads on the square silver chip between the two gpu cores (some sort of pci-e splitter?) and the long "CPLA-3-50" chip and small boxy chip up on top of the card. The VRM's and RAM use 0.5 mm thermal pads.
also i recommend the fujipoly pads too.
Ya, but what do you know about
5970 thermal pads?
Considering thats MY thread and I personally checked it for myself and own 12 5970's, I know enough to know what I'm talking about.
