Did you by any chance use max fans on all tests other than no overclock or voltage changes?
-
by the way, any link to these?
-
yeah I also ran some tests with nanogrease, no luck there either. Mine is overclocked but undervolted to 0.975. I think I'm gonna switch back to LM. Running full tests resulting in 400+watts yield 80C on gpu and 84 on cpu, both undervolted and overclocked.
-
ran the same test with the new heatsink, pads, washers, kryonaut on gpu, still a good +10C offset on both gpu and hotspot. even with / without copper IHS. oh well
-
Yes, figured as much, indeed cpu temps are fine, gpu are not, even after adding washers it's still too hot. I also replaced the old stock cpu IHS but no go there either. Still attempted your approach. Long or short springed screws do not fit in the cpu and neither do short springed onto the gpu
-
I could try changing gpu screws to something else +washers and or springs yes..last thing I can do
-
problem here resides elsewhere, both heatsinks, same problem on both normal thermal paste and LM.. both that improve temps when I change screws and add pads to increase pressure
-
nice, let me know if you test in on air what temps you get. these are mine (stress tests gpu side) after numerous attempts at checking contact etc : In complete contrast to the cpu which after cinebenching doesn't go over 80 :
-
I wonder at this point if the copper IHS is too tall for this heatsink.
-
Ok so I dismounted and checked the pads and thermal paste on gpu side. It seems bottom side ( towards cpu) has less contact. I triple checked pad thickness with the picture guide and indeed after another test they show regular pressure on all components. Pity the gpu seems not that lucky. Pic quality is terrible but every pad shows signs of normal contact. Edit: checked pressure contact without any pad whatsoever, issue persists, and it so happens the heatsink is slightly bent on that side, gonna try and fix it and see if it is enough.
-
That's the problem, it is fine (thermal paste on gpu is kryonaut and conductonaut on cpu btw) on both sides. I'mma open it back again and check
-
My heatsink finally arrived, though it seems I got some contact issues. With regards to screws: springed white long ones on the gpu and black ones on cpu I gather? I used the aliexpress scheme for pads but yeah some seem to struggle with contact.
-
i chose DHL, but wasn't chosen. Apparently it was done to avoid congestion as the shipping price was the same.
-
Mine is also parcelup, it auto selected fedex regardless of my own choices, did contact them on this. "Volume weight" is double the actual listed weight. I just hope they do not use the same perfect heatsink pictures as proof before sending..
-
Boy them shipping fees to EU...more than the product itself
-
Well, I tried everything to get that dreaded taobao website to work, 3 people around the country and still everyone with the " detected unusual activities on your network", took me days to actually get registered with a real phone number, first time I try to login, account frozen for "very serious reasons", and the only answer I got was to contact their support and show ID cards etc. But the most common suggestion was to have an alipay account verified with which to login without failure.. GuessI'll have to do without the heatsink. Edit: finally discovered how to use it, with agents and such, and managed to purchase it, will see what's what when it gets here, should also get pads.
-
I still gotta check because I need an account to actually view the product, is everything included? The ssd heatsink and fans for instance.
-
taobao or aliexpress?
-
So tempted to buy that heatsink..but when you wrote it arrived borked and bent I kinda stopped. Wonder if the aliexpress version (375euros with everything included I hope) has better quality..though I doubt it. I suppose the ssd heatsink is separate from that package
-
thanks a lot, do you happen to remember the pads thickness?
-
which thermal pads did you end up using? any different measurement from the stock heatsink? You mentioned screws included weren't entirely correct, which one did you end up using? Got any numbers regarding air only temp results? Would also love to know where you purchased it at that price as aliexpress has it much more expensive, thanks for the review!
-
thanks, i gotta look for what that hybrid watercooler uses then
-
Cheers, do these apply for the hybrid heatsink as well?
-
Wonder if this is even accurate, also what "original" means in terms of thickness
-
see those chessboard-like patterns? those are, for lack of better terms, the famous uneven bits, if you pass your finger on them you'll feel small bumps
