Hello
I'm sticking small heat sinks to an old AGP graphic card's memory chips 12x13mm and mosfets 8x8mm. But I find it very hard to find these double sided tapes or sheets on stores. Nobody knows what they are.

What is a good 2-sided sticky tape brand to buy which is common and easy to remove ?
- 3M 8810 sheets thickness 0.1-0.5mm found on ebay is only 0.6 W/mK.
- Arctic's blue colored 6.0 W/mK are probably not 2-sided tapes ?
- Dealextreme.com sells some "1 W/mK".

Arctic themal pad 145x145mm. Thickness=0.5mm: ( Not sticky ones ? )

Note: I'm planning to use pads not those permanent thermal quick glues or such.

I ordered "made in Japan" Sekisui 5760 2-side tape thermal pad from China ebay for 3usd$ 100x200mm sheet.
-> Any idea is it good ? Opinions ? I'm pretty sure it is not made in Japan but in China. So Japan is only "producer" not manufacturer.

Very silent topic everywhere on internet regarding heat sink attaching to rams ? Why it isn't popular ? 😕
