[@devrandvar]

In a case with no fans it would quickly overheat with this hardware. Now in a well ventilated case with a couple of quiet fans it might actually perform better then open air. A fanless system would need the heatsinks on the outside of the case or the entire system power would have to be very low.

[@chincemagnet]

Huge passive coolers are good for one thing...and that’s mounting fans to it and turning it into a beast air cooler

[@chincemagnet]

Agreed me from 2 years ago, I was just about to say the same thing again!

[@Eyedunno]

@@chincemagnet I'm here one more year later lol. But the thing about this is that this cooler has thick, spaced-out fins optimized for passive cooling. With a fan, you can use thinner fins that are closer together. So yeah, you can get better performance with a fan, but you'd be better off getting a cooler designed to be used with a fan. The idea here really is only using a fan when the PC is under heavy load for a while, and sacrificing overall performance for reliability.

[@chincemagnet]

@ yep, you’re right. I just thought it was cool. I’ve done some crazy stuff over the years, and mounting big fans to stuff that weren’t intended to have them originally is always a fun project

Since it does so well passively you should ghetto mount some fans on it for the hell of it and see how well it performs like a regular air cooler. I'm curious lol.

[@shaneeslick]

Yeah that would have been good to see, although no need to Ghetto as it has the fan mounts included in the thermal paste Bag,

[@FinneousPJ1]

It's worse than a cooler designed for fans

[@FinneousPJ1]

@Desktopia Size, or more relevant the cooling surface area, is way smaller on this than a D15.

[@FinneousPJ1]

@Desktopia It *has* more surface area

[@FinneousPJ1]

@Desktopia Yeah it's a big difference. I think it's clear anyone looking for active cooling shouldn't consider the P1, that's not what it was designed for.

Noctua needs to sell a GPU mounting kit for this.

[@KordanorsGamingLair]

I'd also buy it. Morpheus 2 to my knowledge is the only aftermarket air cooling solution which allows case fans atm. Being able to freely chose your own fans and replace noisy or broken graphics card fans is just such a big plus.

@@marsh5954 Yep, also the coverage of that Morpheus by big channels is lacking. I mean it had been featured by LTT but that video wasn't exactly great (which was also partially because the total package of the morpheus wasnt great)

[@jaredd9602]

I would be really interested in seeing how this cooler performs in a case or many different cases. Especially one that is optimized for airflow.

[@DigitalJedi]

I actually bought one of these a while ago. Dad's work PC is currently cooling an i3 10105 with it and running an ARC A380. The mere existence of an intake fan keeps it cool. It's almost entirely silent as every fan in the system only kicks on after its related component hits 80C. I don't think the front intake fan has ever spun up except on boot when everything spins up anyways.

[@oscarmetal]

Dawid working at Noctua HQ: if we put a box this way we can increase performance . Noctua: give this man a raise!!!

[@Rose.Of.Hizaki]

6:27 -- the metal you see across the vrm and ram is the heatsink. Apart from helping the card from not drooping/warping due to the weight of the cooler Its spreading the heat across a wider area and its cooled by the fans on heatsink that blow the air up against the cooler. Of course the air will always be hot while gaming due to the GPu heatsink being directly attached to it as it should be but the cooling surface for the VRMs and RAM is spread across a bigger surface area so that should help in keeping temperatures at a more satisfactory level.

2:00 The fan is not for "beast cooling". Its for building semi passive system where the fan is only switched on when the CPU has to work hard. Kind of similar to zero fan mode on modern GPUs. Infact that cooler will not work greak for active cooling (compared to other coolers of the same size), because of the low ammount of fins and the large spacing between them.

Question: how much improvement on the temps when we add a fan to it.

[@PabzRoz]

I left the same comment. Hook some fans to it like a regular air cooler and see how much of an improvement it adds. Since it performs so well passively I bet with a fan or 2 it would be the best "air cooler" on the market lol. Of course that's if you can get it all to fit in a case.

[@khush_kat]

@@PabzRoz i saw this kind of thing somewhere and found out that it actually dosent help alot... The passive cooler are designed differently or something. Still a proper video by dawid would we better.

[@PabzRoz]

@@khush_kat That makes sense. For regular air coolers the heat fins are thin so the fans are actually able to cool down the metal but with passive coolers the fins are really thick so the fans wouldn't be able to cool them down as well. That's what I would assume anyway lol.

I'd recommend putting some book over the fan to make sure proper contact is made with the GPU at all times. I think Scott Mueller's Upgrading & Repairing PCs would produce the best results.

With a passive cooler it probably needs to be about 60 degrees to create enough of an effective air current to allow it to continue cooling.
