I'll try to upload a link later if it still doesn't show. On my phone.
Edit. At home now. The images seem to be showing on my pc. Anyway, now that I have the full use of a keyboard.\, 🙂
I am using the heatsink from the Quadro 1000m that came with my z1. When I removed the 1000m card there was a little copper shim attached to the heatsink. I didn't see this shim in any of the videos/pictures. I probably wouldn't worry about it if it was larger than the k4000m gpu but it's smaller.
I'll see if I can pry it off and just use a good gob of thermal paste.

Edit: Now I can see your picture. Yes that is the area, but on my heatsink there is a raised copper shim area.
Lol, now I can't see the picture. I tried to upload it onto the hp forum. Hopefully now you can see it. 🙂

Ahh, the images show now. Not sure what that shim is - beats me.
I'd remove it probably (if it can be). I've never seen one in a Z1 heatsink module before and plenty of cards here work fine without it.
Just remove it and install the card as per normal.
OR just a thought; is your HP heatsink module the newer version from the Z2?

Everything went well and the drivers installed fine for my dell k4000m. What are the typical gpu temps under benchmarking that you guys are seeing?
