he used a little piece of copper between the GPU and Headsink with thermal paste. i never remove the thermal Pad .Clean only the surface on CPU and buy new thermal paste . i use arctic silver 5 thermal paste . https://www.arctic.ac/de_en/thermal-pad.... and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdHMsDXp...

You will need an anti-static mat and wrist strap. Also How to Apply Thermal Paste
