I changed out the NT-H1 thermal paste for Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut and there's not been any meaningful difference. I'm still in the middle of testing and verifying, re-applying, and trying again.Has anyone taken off the VRM heat-sink and replaced the thermal pad? It's been bothering me that the 3400G is so quick to throttle. If the CPU runs warmer then AMD upgrading the stock cooler from the Stealth to the Spire makes perfect sense. I know that little heat-sink isn't going to passively cool to much but every little bit helps. it's been bothering me that the chip will not hit 4 Ghz even on it's initial burst of boost. That's over 200 Mhz below the advertised STOCK max boost :/
