So i want to apply new thermal paste on my gpu but the heatsing isstuck no matter what. i  tried prying it off, everything. any advice would be appreciated.

Is the gpu running hot ? I would say NO 

Just leave it if it is not broken don't fix it

Soft modding is like masturbating, It gets the job done but it's nothing like the real thing.

I agree. Its not the first time we've had this discussion and the conclusion I thought was that replacing the TIM had minimal effect on the reported temperatures. That's what I've found.

Add to that the potential risk to the chips of removing a well stuck on heat-sink and that ^ is the best advice. Leave it be.
