    Hi guys I'm looking for some help with thermal pad placement on a gt 240m video card. Purchased a Alienware 18 so I've removed the 7970m from my m15x which I'm selling online and wanted to apply thermal pads to the 240m before I install. I remember seeing thermal pads on the card but can't remember where abouts they were. Would I get away with just putting pads on the vram? If anyone can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. Loving the 18 by the way
