More power definitely increases heat. I've been using adrenaline for a long time and it produces a lot of noise. Also, I haven't changed the thermal pads, so are you making a mistake?

Adjustments are important because size affects heat dissipation. Bigger coolers aren't always better since lower wattage means less heat. Thermal pads should only be swapped out when they’re damaged or torn; if they’re still intact, they can last longer. Thermal paste requires more care as it tends to dry over time. When replacing pads, match the thickness carefully—look for a slight protrusion and measure with calipers. If temperatures are slowly rising without dropping after a while, consider checking your cooling setup or consulting online resources for pad dimensions.

Offer it for sale with clear drawbacks. Highlight potential technical shortcomings and note its possible value as a spare parts source for higher-level systems.

Great! Enjoy your day. Consider selling it as parts or recycling it at an e-waste facility.
