Copper is very soft, even wiping it with a paper towel will scratch it. As long as it's not deep scratches no big deal. Just added the cool my gpu copper plate to my evga 3080ti ftw3. Good job! Thanks for sharing!
i have the EVGA 3070 FTW3 dodoes it use the same Size Thermal Pad as the Ti ? i been searching and found only 2 videos and both use totally different sized Thermal pad, lol IDK the true size, all but what EVGA site claime the pads are 2.5 all around, but not sure... if you or anyone here know i greatly appricated, An Thank you for Sharing the Copper Plate fit Nicley👍
can i do this on my normal evga 3070 ftw3 even tho i dont see any overheating or anything but since i bought it used after warranty runs out iam planning on replacing thermal paste and if i can put that in to even make temperature better i would be happy hope u see my comment nice video
Dont do this crap, its a pointless video and pointless end game, it doesnt run hot out of the box, you may save 3 cents running costs after 30 years from fan speed. This is a complete joke video.
i believe certain cards have a 2 separate heatsinks one for gpu and one for mem, but the EVGA is one heatsink for it all. The gpu is definitely not overheating, just gone up a little because the cooler is now more effectively absorbing the memories heat.
@@Evilwizzie all pc parts benefit from lower temps. lower temps on gpu for example will auto boost up your boost clock to higher speeds. lower temps on pc parts means longer life and less crashes. Use Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Extreme or Kingpin KPx thermal compound those are the best ones for CPU and GPU thermal compound. thin spread method with thermal compound over cpu/gpu die with a very small dot in the center is the best method of application or make an X on the cpu/gpu die works just as well.
@@williamm9099 awesome I actually just got some kryonaut ultra high performance thermal grease and a copper plate that covers around the gpu die but hasn’t came in yet
If you are using a mining OS like HiveOS memory temps were recently added for GDDR6x vram. On windows you can use hwinfo64 if the card you are using is GDDR6x.
Bro, just a tip, DO NOT scrub this plastic scraper in your heatsink. Even though it's made of plastic, you did scratch the heatsink, a lot to be honest. Just use your fingers to remove the old pad, very carefully, and that's it. Other than that, good job!
@@oulck On the GPU part of the heatsink, yes, totally agree. However, not on the thermal pads portion. I mean, while he is using cooper + thermal compound, it should be fine. Once he goes back to thermal pad on VRAMs, it might be a little hotter than before, as the thermal pads won't fill in the scratches, nothing crazy... but if we can avoid doing that, is the best option.
For sure won't be doing that again, luckily nothing was deep, to be honest couldn't even feel them, but will be much more delicate on my future mods. Thanks for watching!
It doesn’t really matter as the scratches actually increase the thermal area just like the heatsink in a water cooler. The more the area /ridges the more cooling contact of an area. Cheers
Why risk and void the warranty of a perfectly good card, 20c reduction is pointless. May make it last from a 10 year card to a 15 year card but nobody cares.
I did the coolMyGPU copper front & back plate mod on my 3090FTW3 & saw great results.. love there products.
Right on!
@@dumpstermining7568do you still have this card ?
Those custom copper shims make it so easy.
Thanks bro. I just received my copper plate from coolmygpu for my 3070 ti. I have already seen a 20 degree drop on my a2000. This was very helpful.
Glad I could help!
do you still have your 3070 ti evga ?

What were your results?
@@shawn011274 havent built my pc yet will post them.
@@puddleduckist waiting for the update :D
Did a video using GPU Riser pad replacement with Artic MX-4 thermal paste, got the memory down 22C! Great video!
damn i just got some critical pads a few months ago. dint know this was a thing, ty
Great vid. Thanks for the info.
Thank you! For you hard work!! Awesome job!!!
Well done and very informative. Audio quality is at times not as good as it could be. Subscriber no 4!
even better with a waterblock fitted :)
what GPU monitoring program do you use in this video?

i did the same mod on my card but with pure silver shims instead. get a further 10c+ lower than your results.
crazy I have the same GPU and my memory temps don't get over like 65 degrees
How many millimeters is your copper plate?
my 3070ti ftw3 dual mining and memory temps are 84c with fans at 80%
I seen som ppl comment on youtube it risk shorting transistors near copper plate, is this true?

How much the thickness of the copper shim my friend?
Don't the cooler divide the heat from GPU and memory. You could end up with issues of heat transferring more to one side and over heating GPU ?

What is the thickness for the copper plate?
hi guy, When will the product 3070ti arrive ?
So I do just gaming with my 3080ti ftw3 would it be worth it to go with this
If your memory temps are causing throttling (loosing GPU performance) while gaming then I would recommend the mod for sure!
@@dumpstermining7568 ok thank you

пожалуйста напиши размеры заготовки. чем вырезал?
How's the copper going to look in a year?
is it better to use high temperature tape as well?
kapton tape not needed. custom cut copper shim won't shift like individual per memory chip shim pieces
It definitely can't hurt, cant be too safe, but as SavageBits said not necessary.
How can you see the temperature of the memories?
If you are using a mining OS like HiveOS memory temps were recently added for GDDR6x vram. On windows you can use hwinfo64 if the card you are using is GDDR6x.
For the price on these cards we shouldn't have to do squat
Technically they run within spec.
can you do this mods on a 3090
Yes. 3090 also needs a heatsink on the backside
@@SavageBits do you think this mod is greatly improved the vram temp on gaming use I running a 3090 strix and in some games I saw 88c on memory
@@HosakaBlood it's legit. I copper shim modded a 3090 hybrid with great results. About to do it again to a 3080 Ti
I would love to, CoolMyGpu sells plates for many 3090s. Unfortunately I do not own a 3090 :/ otherwise I would have a video for you.

Its very good however the company doesnt give any discounts. if you have 40 x 3070 ti you are fcked ! its quite alot money for piece of copper.
do not work like this dude
