Does anyone know the dimensions of the CPU thermal pad of the dell mini 10v? I found a ebay seller that sells custom size copper pad shim. This would be the perfect solution for the cpu cooling.

Thanks, yes aware of that but was hoping someone could shed some light on the stock filler.

Im guessing its between 1-1.2mm and gets compressed to 0.8-1mm but i could be wrong.
I was looking at the following item on eBay: 250797032369
However without knowing the thickness of the current pad i would risk crushing the core
Im sure i read somewhere that someone knew the part number for the thermal pad gap filler however noe one actually mentioned its dimenstions and thickness. I can guess at dells customer support thickness when i asked lol..
Anyhooo...

Might ask if the seller can do a 0.8mm shim though.

Umm, I don't know about the thermo paste, what's the problem with using it?
