AMD RX 5700 XT Cooling HACK

[@snipernote]

Great idea to keep aircooling method but Can you add special cooling heatsinks with pads for the memory modules to make it better ?

[@GeorgeTech]

Yes! I feel like I have to. Lol thanks Hisham!

[@madyb]

He can and he should. If he uses Accelro IV it also comes with a backplate which helps a lot.

washers not O-Rings lol

3600X Needs a Bios update on that board that is why the 2600 booted right up without changing anything else. Sprinkle coke on it. That usually helps.

I have the 5700 xt nitro+ hitting 95+ degrees when gaming, I know it's within "spec", but I am too worried about it. 22 degrees ambient temperature

[@threedogful]

Thank you!! Is there any chance you'll do a video on how to apply heatsinks (or whatever is necessary) to mosfets, VRM, and GDDR6? And then check memory temps to see the difference.

[@GeorgeTech]

It's coming up!

[@threedogful]

@@GeorgeTech that's awesome to hear. Waiting for it!

[@Astr4L-i4r]

@@GeorgeTech my vram in 5700xt is 1750 stuck in idle is normal for the card? or bug? any solution ?????????????????

[@AndrzejZ]

I suggest to play a battle in World of Tanks on Ultra settings and obseve temps. In my PC this is the only game that pushes junction temp of my Radeon 113 Celsius degs. No other game is doing this, even Death Stranding on highest settings.

[@zachmuller1102]

Buddy, good idea. The editing on the video is painful though.

[@LuxZoltan]

My saphire pulse hits 100 easily you recommend me to boy this one?

[@GeorgeTech]

Yours is not blower style. Something is wrong with the fan profile or the card itself. I would just RMA. Unless it's junction temp you're taking about then you're fine.

[@LuxZoltan]

George Tech YT the two temps appear pretty close to each other 90/105 the ambient temperature where I live it's around 30 digrees I'm just searching for a solution, more fans, liquid cooling or something

[@GeorgeTech]

Gotcha. 90/105 is within AMD spec and also pretty good for 30C ambient. How's your case airflow?

[@LuxZoltan]

@@GeorgeTech I search a little and see some people complain about the case but my CPU is a i5 8400 and it dosent run hot, only the graphic card goes that hot

[@GeorgeTech]

You still within the specification. So no worries there. If you wanna boost longer or overclock that's a different story.

[@adnelortiz]

I used the same Cooler on a Vega 56 and added the memory and mosfets sinks. I honestly don't trust the thermal tape. I feel like a heatsink might fall anytime. 0_o Love the cooler, hate the sinks. ^_^

[@GeorgeTech]

Hahaha they won't I promise! Vega has HBM2. You sure it was memory? Maybe controller?

[@adnelortiz]

@@GeorgeTech LOL, true. I put them on the mosfets and other parts, but damn, there are a few located where you usually see memory chips. That one slipped, bad, yet the point is that the ram-sinks with the thermal tape really make me nervous. ^_^

[@GeorgeTech]

@@adnelortiz Hahaha I'm with you on that. I have a video coming up on thermal interfaces. It's not that bad. So hopefully, it will ease the "pain" lol
