Bro, how did you get 110? Did the GPU not have any thermal paste at all? I got the same result just by repasting my 3070, and let me tell you, the paste was completely dry and didn't even hit 110 before.

wtf is this shit

I just saw your videos. Wow 2 years ago ? Are you still alive man? Hope you upload more videos about gpu mods, appreciate if you try laptop gpu mods

finally a real men

Its KAPTON, and not KAPTON😅

what if the heatsink was made out of copper as well? would it be minor or major temperatures improvement?

What are the negative effect on long term?

new record, 28 minutes lets fucking goo 10:03

Question: Why not use a single copper strip? Instead of the double/triple small squares? Never done it myself so I don't know just by watching.

i used your copper modding for my 3080 ti and the temperature dropped by about 20-30 degrees. amazing.

Underwolt ? i have msi 2070 .. factory is crazy but if you apply normal clocks is nice

How thick are the copper plates? the website you got the cooper plates is not working anymore.

what about put cooper on mem?

gonna copper mod my new gaming pc im building soon also gonna solder on upgrades to the gpu[more v ram and overclocking] gonna be fun

Thank you for this video. I have my own theory on this if you or someone else is interested. 1. You are increasing the contact surface with a GPU due by using this copper shim so in theory it should help with cooling further parts of a die. (Sometimes copper heat pipes in cooler don't cover it fully and only cover most of the centre. 2. Another thing is that you've done a fresh repaste of this card so it might've helped with a few degrees as well. It looked like previous owner pasted it with what seems like cryonaut as well? Just judging by the colour I might be wrong with previous paste brand / type. 3. And lastly (my own theory time). Coolers are designed with certain cooling power in mind and it's almost never an overkill but some adequate cooling solution. You've increased the thermal pad size also potentially introducing tiny air pockets because you've just added pads on top of it instead of replacing them completely. Not a big deal honestly and you've explained why. So to the point. You reduced heat transfering ability of those thicker pads by a little but freed up some of total cooling ceiling and now core can use that extra "freed" cooling capacity that was reserved by thinner pads before. Well I hope my mumbling makes any sense. Thank you for this experiment and your great job at explaining the negatives as well. Very informative. Looking forward to move awesome videos like these.

I tried moding my GPU before. I never used copper before but I tried better thermal pads on a 3080ti TUF which yielded about -11c and then I removed OEM shroud and stock fans to add 2x 140mm static pressure focused fans which decreased temps by roughly another 10c or so at about 75% constant fan speed. Used 3 of those moded TUFs for mining Ethereum. Love your mods and take on this. I'm thinking to try that copper plate. But I'm a little worried about longevity of this mod. Someone suggested 0.5mm thermal pads instead of paste if plate allows it. Anyways how long do you think it would work like this before it would need a repaste job about? 2 years at most with average gaming sounds about right? Anyways thanks for that video. You deserve more views

Bro, don't cover your capacitors with capton tape. It will insulate them, causing faster wear over time. If you are really paranoid, use solder mask on terminals. It will look better and you will retain its cooling capacity.

yeah because you are not doing anything on your test, try showing us the temps while gaming bruh

Won't that capton tape just loosen and fall off after it gets really hot

Give me an update after 2 years

What's the thickness of the copper pads if its to think the heatsink wont make enough contact with the core if to thinn you over tighten the screws and out excessive pressure on the parts that use solder balls so the thickness of the pads have to just right

What the fuck? Why would anyone do that??????

Nice job. I would note that this only works because the memory has its own sub cooler and there is space between the main cooler and the memory cooler before making contact. If it was one of the single piece coolers like my XFX Merc and most cards I have worked on, the copper plates will result in a gap between the core and the heatsink of thickness isn't perfect. Also there might not be sufficient pressure on the core to make good thermal contact. Both will cause the issue to migrate to the GPU. Like others have said, in some cooler designs you will need to put paste down, then a 0.4mm thinner copper plate, then finally a 0.5mm thermal paste to allow for squish and proper pressure to all the other contact surfaces.

I hate pads anyway

*paint and suf..... i mean labour..* DEAD lol

10:07 Why you dont use thermal or puddy on the memories?

It's 2024 let's do silver modded it's more conductive 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and exprensive 😪

-.-......thermal pads then copper plates then thermal paste then heatsink that is the order i would have done it

FUCKING MINERS !!!!!!!!! GO TO HELLLLLLLLL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice mod bro. i see your vid right after I just watched a vid on someone removing thier 11gb of samsung vram of on a 2070 or 2080 and upgrading it with 22gb of vram. I found out we can buy the vram straight from samsung online.

I See!💪💪

Nice Job!!!! Take a flat surface to grind the plates as a Glas or a Stone. What about One CooperPlate all over the 8 Chips? By And go on!!!

GDDR6X can't actually handle tolerances of 110C without experiencing degradation. People were being misinformed by Micron simply because it didn't want to fess up that it created a product that would degrade much earlier than necessary. With that said, most well built 3000 series cards shouldn't see temps above 95 C (which is fine) for the memory junction or modules themselves unless something is wrong with the pads. Repadding and repasting for most cards should be the easiest fix, especially if you go with something reputable like Gelid.

The last time I applied thermal paste, it was easier to use my finger to spread it.

travail de cochon

I have the same card but have no idea what size I need

Doesn't metal get hot tho? Don't understand how that's good when it'll retain heat in that area

You can see the detached capacitor near memory 1 next to G1 at 5:44

Was thinking of doing this on my 2060 laptop GPU, its an old laptop :)

Simple, Elegant. Genius work here.

Any updates on this after 2 years of use? I'm keen to try it but need to know the copper wont oxidize

i have the msi 3070 but i cant find the settings for the memory temps !

Looks like this could be a viable upgrade to all GPUs... 😮

It begs the question why Nvidia devs have not been doing this... They are certainly intelligent enough to figure this out... I can only assume that not doing this has been deliberate to shorten the life of their GPUs so customers buy new ones... Looks dirty as hell to me... 😮

Can I ask why you stopped making videos?

You can just buy a non-electrical-conductive thermal paste (I purchased 2g Kyronaut) and skip sticking all the electrical tapes around.

Im curious as to what your ambient temps where outside of your case. MSI Grills, Lol.....

One this is for sure, you put the spotlight on Asus. If my card went past 65 c. that would be to hot for me let alone 100 c.... Now im thinking Asus needs to send you a check for all the RMA's you are going to prevent.
