[@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

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.

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.

[@Kordanor]

@@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)

[@JoshuaCBrown]

@@marsh5954 I think they should release a new G12 to fit the 30 series cards better, instead. It's a lot easier to throw an AIO on a video card than a huge heatsink.

[@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.

[@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.

[@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.

[@Chris-yy7qc]

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.

[@OntarioGuy430]

You know the results are serious when they are titled ' Test again duration 30-ish minutes.' This is why I keep coming back.

[@Ometecuhtli]

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.

[@1967KID]

Nice and with 2 noctua push and pull fan's , and good air flow is important, this cooler rock's.

[@mrljgibson]

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.

[@qT_p13]

I dont understand why you pointed out average power consumption when the more important metric should be closer to peak power consumption. Your cpu reportedly pulled 170+ watts which was clearly too much and caused it to hit near 90c, and the rx580 was closer to 135 watts and the temp was around 70c. And this is in open air in a cool ambient doing gaming (not heavy cpu loads such as rendering). With these numbers, it is an ask to spend over $100 on a cooler for an 8 core cpu, but compared to the passive cooler market, this is actually pretty good.

[@manameisjeffie656]

that's why i really like this channel (ur the only guy that tested this cooler with a GPU)

[@magarity1]

I think in the first test, if it were in a case with fans blowing by then it would be better than just sitting on the desk.

[@wandameadows5736]

Its not really passive with case fans. It actually looks like its designed for just that purpose with the fins being spaced further apart. You really need it in a case. Id bet it would be cooler in a case with good airflow.

[@msmolly3082]

The height adjustable mic arm UNDER the cooler overhang would have been smarter. If, it didn't act too much as a heat sink, actually improving the coolers ability.

[@tallnrough68]

That passive cooler would work better in a good case with good air flow over the cooler

[@Obie327]

Very interesting Dawid! Stick a fan on the passive cooler and it cools even better? I currently have a 140 fan blowing down on a Ryzen CPU cooler that keeps temps in check with my mini Itx build. This cooler looks beefy cool!

[@Alex-wb2yw]

I feel like a test bench kind of defeats the purpose of this cooler? In a decently setup case there would be more air flowing over the fins, and probably a better result.
