Thanks a lot! If I can't get 2.25 and 1.25mm, would you suggest I get 2mm/1mm or 2.5mm/1.5mm?

Go for lower ~ matching. Etc.: 2.25 > 2 , 1.25 > 1

or 2.5mm/1.5mm?

Nope, this will cause issue with GPU core cooling.
[this will lift the heatsink, that will cause poor or lag of contact and respective bad temps or/and crashing issues]

If I can't get 2.25 and 1.25mm, would you suggest I get 2mm/1mm
yes, as your replacement will be hardest in all cases compared to original with much smaller compression.


In any case do a dry test => Assembly the GPU and with new pads (temp thermal paste for GPU core) and screw all screws,
then open it again (without trying to run the GPU) and inspect for a good and proper imprints over the pads,
to make sure all looks fine, before try to run it.
If something doesn't look good:
=> No imprints, not good enough imprints,[faded imprints] not steady imprints,[not the same level of imprints over the pad],
then you will need to do a corrections where is need.

Only when all looks good visually after those tests and inspection,
then give it a run.
