GTX 1080 Thermal Paste | Stock after 5 years VS Noctua NT-H2 | Test in Games and Software

Hi. One question: For the Asseto Corsa test, you showed OLD as faster and significantly less hot than the NEW (top right) . Is there a reason for it? All other tests showed an improvement with the Noctua thermals.

It's a mistake, the data shown on the "old" side is actually the new one and vice versa. Also ETS2 has the same mistake. As they were recorded with a wide-screen resolution I messed up those 2 parts on the editor, but I found the error almost a month after uploading the video 😅😅

@@AdverseGecko3 Eheh. 😁 Yep, I noticed it too with another sim. No problem. And good video, btw. 👍

If I buy new GPU should I change thermal paste into NT-H2?

[@AdverseGecko3]

If it is 100% brand new, not at all. You can do it and maybe get a 5ºC temperature drop, but it won't be that different. But, if it's been 3 or 4 years with no change, or if you get a second market one, I think it's a must.
