With 3.5 gram (1) Arctic Silver, can I request both CPU and GPU at once? What is the precise gram amount for each component, and is it possible for someone to create a video about applying thermal paste on an XFX R9 390?

There isn't a precise measurement. It simply requires a sufficient quantity so that when dispersed beneath the CPU/GPU, it will occupy the tiny gaps and imperfections in the metal. Often, applying too much results in an excess. A minuscule amount is enough for it to spread under pressure and heat, filling those spaces.
