Hello, I replaced the thermal pads now with 3.0 mm Thermalright Odyssey pads and memory temp went down from over 110C to 84C.

But the problem is, that now the other (first) temp is up 88C in about 5 seconds after starting t-rex miner. What is the problem now? I also replaced the thermal paste directly on the chip, like shown in that video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8KKYtiuu0I

Make sure you are using the proper sized thermal pads.  Its usually 1mm-2mm for the front and 2-3mm for the back.  If you use ones that are too big they will prevent the heatsink from making contact with the GPU to cool it properly.
