2 IMPORTANT TIPS... 1) I did a similar Noctua mod and had bad COIL WHINE caused by the change in power draw (even in light fan usage oddly). I had TWO fans and solved this by moving the 2nd fan (the one NOT over the GPU PROCESSOR itself) to a MOTHERBOARD fan header. I then uses the software "FAN CONTROL" to control the fan using the GPU temperature reported by the graphics cards sensor. Worked perfectly! Likely you could run ALL fans to the motherboard if you needed to. 2) I used EVGA Precision software for the main fan (and the light overclock) but it CRASHED on startup. I realized the reason was the LIGHTS (LED's) were enabled in the EVGA software but I'd removed the shroud with the LED's and its controller. I UNINSTALLED then reinstalled the EVGA software then made sure NOT to check "LED SYNC."
This is how I do it aswell. Didn't even think about coil whine as I run lower power already because of it, but it probably does help with that too. This method bypasses any 0rpm mode and factory curves that the gpu header uses. It's harder to remove the card but it doesn't effect looks in a black case and it works perfectly.
Using the Noctua fan clamps from Noctua fan coolers makes so much sense - i can't believe I didn't think about that. I'm excited to do this to my Radeon 6000 card. Thanks for the idea!
I'm kind of surprised that at least one oem doesn't make a heatsink that accepts after market fans natively. You'd think that fewer moving parts would be a dream for returns and cost.
Nobody can understand it. All oem only wants 10 cent fans (I'm obviously exaggerating, not oem has ever spent that much on a fan). Putting $1 dollar fans is an outragerous idea to them, and they can't imagine the consumer wants to spend more than $1 on airflow to a $1000 graphics card.
@@itsnophun it might be because the profit margins of being an oem making a graphics card is so slim. They need to make them as cheap as possible to be competitive. When buying a gpu, most people just buy the cheapest board for the chip they want. slapping on $45 in fans just doesn’t make enough sense for an oem unless trying to make an extra premium edition
The COST argument doesn't make sense to me. The far better cooling with better fans means a CHEAPER HEATSINK makes sense and the heatsinks cost more. There's rapidly diminishing returns as heatsinks get taller which is also why a 2nd fan on a CPU cooler (like a Noctua NH-D15) doesn't add much cooling at the same noise level. If the card was 2.5 slots thick they could actually use solid, thicker Noctua fans, reduce the heatsink height and the cooling would be better, quieter and likely cheaper overall.
@@photonboy999 you don't get better cooling from better fans. you get better cooling from more airflow, which the easy way to create is with loud, high rpm fans. Good fans like noctua can create a medium amount of airflow at quiet levels. The fans that cool a lot are loud not because they are chosen to be, but because physics said so
Spreading the heat properly (vapor chambers / heatpipes concepts) is probably the most important part. But they should never neglect the fans since good fans will result in a quieter and cooler experience, and they are also a common point of failure due to their poor quality.
What you really need here is a 3d printed plate that screws onto the heatsink with the existing holes and then connect the 3 fans via the long AIO screws.
@@AnOliviaShapedGremlin there's never 60C on the shroud. you can always print face plate that holds any fans you want with thermoplastics not actually touching radiator

Best video I have seen so far - I watched a few because one of the fans on my 6800 xt rattles sometimes (wondering about "sex change" operation in the FAN area of the GPU). The info about VGA to PWM Adapter is especially helpful (didn't see that anywhere)
I am gonna try something like this on the MERC 310. This was highly informative, I didnt know they made adapter for the connections. I thought I'd need to cut and solder the wires from the noctua fans to the connector on the GPU fans
There is a very cool feature here, you can use the fourth free header to connect case fans to it so they stop when GPU is in idle and spin up automatically when GPU - the bggeste heat source in the case - is in action.
Did this with a palit 4090 Gamerock and 3 T30s. Used only zip ties. My gpu fan sockets apparently were not pwm though, so the new fans reacted pretty weirdly to their fan curve. Luckily you can chain the T30 without further adapters, and I just plugged them into one Mainboard slot directly
@@TTks124 That's what I did, but I think the card doesn't support PWM, because fancontrol made them spin at like 1800rpm at 50%, even though they were in 2000rpm max mode. They are set to GPU temp sensor now, they just get their power from the mainboard. Even better, because I didn't have to pay for the vga fan adapter.
@@DuBstep115 silent is subjective. I do agree that 4090s the best GPU when it comes to noise/temps that we ever had, but it's still no match for case fans. If you're telling me that the tiny 1 dollar fans that come stock are comparable yo T30s you're out of your mind. T30s gives you same performance at half the speed or even less. Although not comparable to a 4090, the fans i used were not comparable to the t30s either. My sw3 mod at 800rpm was matching the 1080 strix stock fans at 2k RPM.
Which fans are safe for a video card? My palit stormX 4060ti has a fan 12v 0.45a, it buzzes unpleasantly at any speed. I have a 12v 0.18a case fan. Is the difference in rated current dangerous?
Did the same with my GTX 1070ti only it didnt have those bars on top of the heatsink, so I had to make a plate out of acrylic to screw the fans into. Took me 3 days to make the holes for the fans to draw air in. Deathly quiet though, stable at 80c with the fans only 40%
That sounds very cool. Great job. I invested so much time, this is crazy ... weeks are gone but its a process of learning and thats my drive on this project 😅.
I had a 1070ti that I took out the heatsink from my 980 on. Both were Evga cards both the 980’s heatsink was far better with more pipes and a better fin array, but in doing this be careful you are not making contact with ANYTHING on the board because there’s a good chance it’s gonna toast. I have a 6950xt now but my girlfriends rig has the 1070ti on it and it plays sea of thieves and sims well lmfao.
did something similar with my GIGABYTE Windforce 4070 Ti... took off the gigabyte fans frame, keeping the original heatsink on (which is a crappy one btw) mounted 2x Noctua NF-A15 fans on it results: roughly -5 degrees cooler, fans almost inaudible even at 100% overall happy
Are the temps better? And do these fans keep good static pressure? Doing this mod soon on exact card with exact everything haha! Thanks for helpful tutorial.
The temperatures are identical within margin of error. The Noctuas had much less RPM so i assume the static pressure is much higher than on the stock fans. I am shure you can achieve better temps, about 1-4 Degress, when you replace the Thermal paste, but this will surely void your warranty, at least here in Europe. The Nocctua NF-A9-PWM has a very goof static Pressure of 2,28 mm H₂O and a flow of 78,9 m³/h. Using 3x92mm is a better choice than going with 2x120mm, regardless which fans you choose. As far as i can see there is nothing on the Market that beats the 3x NF-A9-PWM to a reasonable price. noctua.at/de/products/fan/nf-a9-pwm I recommend you to wait until i got the V2 online, the mod will get easier. 🙂
@@coolcat23 well this is simple math. 120mm performs about 30% better than a 92mm fan. 3x92mm = 300%, 2x120mm = 260%. Alone by this numbers you have a disatvantage of about 15% in total for the 120mm fans. Then you will have significant overhangs where the airstream does not hit the cooler and just blows by. Therefore 3x92mm will always be better than 2x120mm. Yeah static pressure etc. will move the numbers here and there a bit, but in total there is no chance for the 2x120mm to win. Except you compare 3 really shitty 92mm fans with 2 premium 120m fans.
I just drew a baseplate in CAD that mounts to the holes that mounts the shroud, and made 12 holes in it for the fanscrews. These fanclips dont look really secure to be honest, but its a nice idea.
Nah, the grey Noctua's are not the same quality product as the brown ones. They're a lot noisier. If you don't like the brown colour scheme, get the Chromax Black versions. They're the same quality as the brown fans.
how can i do this mod to my xfx merc 310 rx 7900 xt? i have very load fans and they dont do the job, in heavy gaming i have like 80 degrees hot spot tempratures with fans at more than 80 percent, plis help me
Hello. I have 2x Artic 120 mm standard 1500 rpm PWM fans connected to my fan header of my graphics card Msi AMD Radeon Rx 480. And exactly the way the original fans were connected, i.e. 4 pins and 3 pins. Only one of the two fans gives the RPM level signal. Both have same colors and I thnink wire colors is standard for these 4 colors. But now the automatic fan control no longer works. By default the fans run at 100% all the time even though they are silent fans and should not run without load. In Afterburner I can switch from automatic to manual and control it between 25% and 100% and manual control works! And the measurement diagram also shows me 900 - 1500 RPM. It looks like the card can carry the load of the bigger fans running them at 100%, no problem. But somehow the automatic mode fan control no longer works and I can't understand why (Temps are low 26°C) ? I see 2 options: 1) During the driver installation you will notice that the fans are being tested. It could possibly be that the installation detects an error because the fans do not spin up to 2000 or 3000 rpm like the original fans. And the installation then sets the automatic mode to permanent 100% fan speed. 2) You have to crack the firmware of the card and readjust the fan control of the firmware? I guess it can only be the first though. That means there's nothing you can do except use fans with the same RPM. That no error and bad setting occurs ? It's not a problem in itself. Since you can start Msi with Startup with 25% fan. And the fans aren't loud at 900 RPM. And before you start a game, set the fans to 100% with Afterburner. and after playing again to 25% manually. However, an automatic is better.
I had to do this with a 6700XT inside my Fractal Ridge case. Although I voided the warranty so I could repaste and repad the chips. My method for securing the two 140mm fans that come with case was just zip ties and it works really, really well.
А перевернуть видеокарту не пробовал? Тепло стремится вверх. При обычном расположении видеокарты, тепло стремится от чипа к плате видеокарты, но если её перевернуть, то тепло будет уходить в радиатор и уже там более эффективно рассеиваться.
The Temperatures remain nearly identical, so there is no real performance loss, or it is within the margin of error. The Noctua Fans spin slower (max 2000rpm) but manage to stay silent and keep the temperature at the same level as the original cooler do.
I have a dead silent PC, under load the 319 Merc is incredble loud, so this makes the 319 Merc as half as loud 🙂 th-cam.com/video/L1UJTkgnMJQ/w-d-xo.html
No, No they are not. As someone who's had a few XFX products including the MERC 310 7900 XTX I can tell you they most certainly are not quiet under a full load. They are actually louder than everything else in the PC and room!
I wish all AIB have use standard fan like case fan so we can swap only fan when it die. Many time I have to RMA the card because fan die and they one they exchange is look like shit compare to the one i send to RMA it suck
This mod may be interesting, but it is a pointless waste of money, The XFX 6900XT Merc 319 already has great cooling with quiet fans. And without before / after temp and noise data you have no idea if this is worth doing in the first place.
Hi, the fans are only silent in idle, in Gaming they are awfull. Wether it is worth or not is up to you. This is a hobby everything on that makes no sense out of financial or time perspective. 🙂

@@djharvardltd6552 in the 92mm size bracket then yeah I guess there isn't much competition. The better 92mm fans are industrial ones that are very loud and go like 10 000 rpm
Kind of pointless honestly I have a merc 319 black edition limited and it wasn’t bad at all on max oc air , I put a bykski block on it full custom loop and modded bios it’s a fuckin beast without any temp issues @ 2.85ghz I mean the shit doesn’t even hit past 64c on any max load benchmarking nor gaming so this mod is moot tbh
These mods are pointless you’ll still hit a wall with bios mod and oc these cards can handle a shit tone of OC if you block them and do custom loop way beyond air ! Way too much bs for minimal gains if you cool it on water and have a proper setup ive seen easily3.0ghz core without killing voltage I can run modded bios on blocked custom with 2.85ghz all day every day and never hit 70c never not games maxxed nor benchmarks !

Temps?
I hooked the noctua cooler to my Gpu instead😁
Temperatures before and after?
The Temperatures remain nearly identical, so there is no real performance loss, or it is within the margin of error. The Noctua Fans spin slower (max 2000rpm) but manage to stay silent and keep the temperature at the same level as the original cooler do.

i love your video, but could you please choose another music or what would be more interesting to us, talk to us ^^
Hi, thank you. I am still searching for good Tracks for the timelapses but the have to be free. If you have any suggestions it will be very nice. 😊
the xfx fans are already quiet
why bother changing them
No, No they are not. As someone who's had a few XFX products including the MERC 310 7900 XTX I can tell you they most certainly are not quiet under a full load. They are actually louder than everything else in the PC and room!
First we need the AMD RX 6900 XT.
Glad my gpu has a 0 rpm mode lol
I just did this with my Sapphire 7900XTX. SO QUIET.
i have 2 mercs a 6950xt and a 6800xt both are dead silent, there's no need for doing this.
I dont think that 50dB while gaming can be considered as "dead silent"...
I wish all AIB have use standard fan like case fan so we can swap only fan when it die.
Many time I have to RMA the card because fan die and they one they exchange is look like shit compare to the one i send to RMA it suck
which rpm on stock coolers and on noctua coolers? th-cam.com/video/L1UJTkgnMJQ/w-d-xo.html
diferencia de temperatura ? mod vs stock
casi igual
shouldve copper modded it aswell for insane temps
ive done this with alot of my mining gpus, with the industrial noctuas and its a 20 degree difference
nobody cares about your mining GPUs hope they stop working 👍
What is so exciting about noctua. I feel like it's just overhyped generic fan that you can find much cheaper alternatives.
build quality
try a delta mod
BPAHbE!!!!
ты пробовал?
Stop music.
Just asmr
This mod may be interesting, but it is a pointless waste of money, The XFX 6900XT Merc 319 already has great cooling with quiet fans. And without before / after temp and noise data you have no idea if this is worth doing in the first place.
Hi, the fans are only silent in idle, in Gaming they are awfull. Wether it is worth or not is up to you. This is a hobby everything on that makes no sense out of financial or time perspective. 🙂
Fl beats
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
What's the point?
50% less noise while gaming
Why u did it?
To get the GPU more silent under load... STOCK gets about 50dB
Check your temps regularly, many gpu´s run hotter after that
Yeah I think it void warranty
Get wrecked noise
My 6900XT from Sapphire already silent ok wihout this pervertions. What helps is put it in riser vertical position, which reduced temperature for 10°C
first?
should have just changed out the blades
Noctua fans aren't even the best. Not even top 3.
Which one, then?
@@djharvardltd6552
Themaltake Toughfan is better.
Phanteks T30 is better.
Nidec Servo Gentle Typhoon is better.
Scythe Wondersnail is better.
BeQuiet! Silent Wing Pro 4 is better.
@@dazeen9591 But in this size, to make this mod to the GPU?
@@djharvardltd6552 in the 92mm size bracket then yeah I guess there isn't much competition.
The better 92mm fans are industrial ones that are very loud and go like 10 000 rpm
@@dazeen9591 Silent wings aren't better. What are you talking about?!
Why to buy overpriced accesories like those noctua fans just to attach them with zip ties 🤦
Some people like silent pc's not rgb fans and glass pc cases. Who cares how it looks if it aint bothering you with cheap fans.
so so bad
What is actually so bad?
@@br0berger nothing its great
Kind of pointless honestly I have a merc 319 black edition limited and it wasn’t bad at all on max oc air , I put a bykski block on it full custom loop and modded bios it’s a fuckin beast without any temp issues @ 2.85ghz I mean the shit doesn’t even hit past 64c on any max load benchmarking nor gaming so this mod is moot tbh
This is a SIlent mod not OC and not for lower Temps... so what is your point?
These mods are pointless you’ll still hit a wall with bios mod and oc these cards can handle a shit tone of OC if you block them and do custom loop way beyond air ! Way too much bs for minimal gains if you cool it on water and have a proper setup ive seen easily3.0ghz core without killing voltage I can run modded bios on blocked custom with 2.85ghz all day every day and never hit 70c never not games maxxed nor benchmarks !
The point was to make the GPU more silent. The goal was achieved, What is the point of your comment? Nobody said this mod is for OC...
