      Yeah we used to have aftermarket heatsinks for gpus. It was the only way to have normal noise levels back then. But since nonreference gpus started shipping with big dense 2 and 3 slot radiators its popularity declined and now many people dont even know they exist. The chips also got big and without shim so its easy to dmg gpu while remounting cooler.

    Something with that 90° chamfer, I definitely recommend doing a ramp-in instead of just lowering it onto the circle for the fans, it helps with it not ruining tools because it slowly gets to depth of cut. As for the accident that happened it looks like the program thought it was a regular endmill instead of a cutter.

      lol yes indeed and often forgotten way to save it
      actually on this subject of TiG + machining...
      i also wonder to ask if it is ever reasonable to tig weld a slightly oversized hollow box from flatbar pieces. and then machine the rest of the way. in order to save machine time and wear. with fewer wate chips to deal with afterwards. depending on the bother for welding the box. and also the specific goal. the approach might not worthwhile simply for this gpu shroud. but what about for some larger objects? such as a furniture. or an entire custom shaped pc case? but then again, it is more sensible to make as individual pieces. and just screw them all together. or friction fit / precision fits or whatever. only if you really wanted the better mechanical screnth provided of a real weld. and for example on a thinner sheets / lower mass. and none of that engineering is so critical for these types of pc building projects

    Could do a 'der8auer signature custom' of a top-of-the-line card: custom fans with a milled shroud, then for the milled backplate you could see what PCB areas get hot and leave islands to place thermal pads for great cooling. Maybe mill the backplate with some grooves for surface area too. Could even do a competition and give it away, one of a kind :)

    you said not a big difference but fixing the pressure brought it from 81C at 70% fan speed to 68C at 36% fan speed, and that also brought about a core clock bump from 1650MHz to 1740MHz with the lower thermals AND lower fan speed! That's an enormous difference.

    You should make a backplate with short hit fins along with a heat pipe going right behind where the memory modules are allowing more of the heat from the memory to transfer to the backplate more effectively then with the aluminum backplate having short fins giving it better thermal transfer possibly dropping temps a few degrees Celsius. Also if temperatures drop then you should powermod the 5700xt and see the scores you can get

    This is the kind of Noctua GPU I want. Nothing gaudy, no unnecessary rgb. Simple design its great. Next time commit and go with brown tho haha

    Aight, when can I buy this off store shelves

    Honestly the milling marks on the top at 6:09 looked gorgeous on camera

    Awesome vid! Could've went the easy way and 3d print it but the big chunk of aluminium is way nicer. I wonder how much the card weighs now compared to stock.

  • @7828191
    @7828191 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Why not fix the small defect in the top left by milling it to a small rectangular shape, and putting a small decal on there. Or perhaps install an LED there?.

    • @7828191

      Making some custom stickers for the fans would be a nice touch as well.

    Amazing results. Great job! It looks really cool

    What a gorgeous outcome it really looks fantastic.
    Maybe someday you could do something similar with FDM, its such a more accessible tech i think a heap of your viewers would relate to it?
    Maybe 'carbon fibre' filament for a laugh ;)
    Also thanks for mentioning the IPA final rinse, and why.

    Do a backplate!! Looks amazing already! Fantastic job!

  • @danswope
    @danswope 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Id love to see the backplate, not only for aesthetics and machining purposes but I'm also curious to see thermal analysis. I wonder if there would be any notable difference if you could thermally link the backplate to the aluminum fan shroud as well...

  • @tonac13
    @tonac13 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    What would also look awesome is to install some white LED's below the model name (in this case, RX 5700 XT) just to give it a nice, white shining touch. Amazing job !

  • @donaldexley1852
    @donaldexley1852 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    you are amazing! that is probably the coolest mod I have ever seen. Think you just found a new item to sell as people would buy that in a heartbeat, just need your logo on it as well :)

  • @twizz420
    @twizz420 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    imo if you polished the new shroud and then left it chrome or anodized it red or gold, that would look amazing... very nicely done! I wish I had a CNC to play with

  • @r1z4rd

    Hello Mr. Hartung ! About the little "defect" in machining, it looks perfetc to fix it embedding a little red stone, maybe a Ruby(ok, a little expensive) or some kind of red resin with a red led(or argb?) under.

  • @giovannitardia2051
    @giovannitardia2051 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very nice mod! I've done the same on my RX 5700, with arctic F9 fans, but I've just zipped them to the original cooler.
    You could fix the wrong rpms reading by using MorePowerTool and changing the fan specs as well, otherwise the vbios will still think to deal with the original fans

  • @tarfeef_4268
    @tarfeef_4268 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Ooh I hope these kind of cooler fabrication videos keep coming. That was really fun. And beautiful.
    Would be awesome to see iterations for thermal improvements, maybe trying making the underlying heatsink at some point, etc.

  • @mahamudulhasananik

    I have a XFX DD edition, it's doing a decent job cooling with a bit of an undervolt (999mV) at 1953 MHz keeping the hotspot below 85°C at 70% fan speed.

  • @TheBackyardChemist
    @TheBackyardChemist 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    9:26 The top and bottom has very thick aluminium, I think you could save a lot of weight on the cooler if you milled out most of the top and bottom "bars" from inside

    • @ark_knight
      @ark_knight 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I mean, you can just go with sheet metal too.

  • @sang7873

    Awesome, would love to see more of this kind of project. Aluminium metal with Noctua chromax really looks nice.

  • @GameRetro
    @GameRetro 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    YES! We wan't more of this! Perhaps integrate the aluminium block as a functional part of the cooling too when you integrate a backplate.

  • @HortBlam
    @HortBlam 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Honestly I think that with your mod, that’s among the top 5 best-looking gpu’s I’ve seen. Amazing job with the design and machining of the fan shroud!

  • @wanderer7779
