    This product kind of seems pointless right? Most if not all 4080 use near 4090 heatsinks as it is correct? My 4080 is nothing special and it's virtually same size as a 4090. I think they mostly reused parts form the 4090 in the 4080. My 4080 on 100% stress load I don't think surpasses like 68-71C and that is with Furmark and CPU stress test together at same time to maximize case heat. I will watch this video but this seems full meme. On a 4090 maybe it would be worth it. But most if not all 4080s are over cooled as is.

    Its interesting how there could potentially be a higher temp on the core because everything else is being cooled by the same overall heat plate. I'm also interested in whether those small fans might have more of an impact if the internal fin density is much higher. Tbh I'd take a 3 degree jump on the core and hot spot temps if all the memory and whatnot is cooler than before.

    Hey Steve, I think this cards "features" would be better suited in an actual case. I speak from the experience of a recent build I did. I replaced all of my case fans with high airflow noctua ones thinking it would help with gpu temps. It actually made it about 5°C worse at the edge temp. I figured out what's happened is my old shitty case fans were getting overpowered by my gpu fans inside the case which created an effective top to bottom airflow pattern. When I got better fans the airflow was now going front to back. My card has ventilation in the front, so now air that was getting pushed out by gpu fans was getting pushed back in and recirculating. This card doesn't have front ventilation which ironically mounted properly could help create good airflow (at least for my build lol)

    If I were to guess, the gasket may be there to prevent crashing the GPU core when mounting the radiator. When disassembling it, you were removing the screws from the upper side of the PCB. That would probably make it hard to gauge how much strength should be applied to the screws when mounting the radiator (+ no retention springs for what I've seen).

    Super interesting. I'm not in the market for a new gpu right now but if I were I would consider this card after the teardown whereas 30 minutes ago I would of not even looked at the brand. Next time I am looking for an upgrade I will be looking at the brand. Just adding thermal pads to the backplate does most of that work in shifting my opinion and has the bonus of me now being even more critical of brands that don't or even worse make the back plate an insultaion feature. I also really like the idea of trying to cool components that typically get no attention even if it ends up with mixed results its a nice idea and I do sometimes wonder if other cards die simply because less important components are left to hit high temps.

    I love this Pentagamer card (I mean come on, five fans? The name is *right there*). It may not be the best in design, but the level of care dedicated to it via maxing out their backplate’s capacity shows pride in their product. I’m quite impressed, for a product I could never afford.

    I have the Maxsun 3080 10gb and that thing runs surprisingly cool, never seen it really go above the mid 60s celsius while gaming, and it's pretty common while idling to sit around 30 +- a couple. Picked the thing up new for 525 when it was on promo for 700 plus a giftcard back for 175.

    removal of the X part on back plate and making the hole slightly larger going towards pcb in middle area should help some with cooling on the back part. but ultimately i feel more fins density would help more. there are things to be done to improve besides removal or the 2 smaller top fins. like maybe venting the top and bottom areas better because it does have a slightly rolled over area. not sure if that would effect air flow any. but there is room for lots of improvements on cooler and design i do like the use of thermal pads on front and backsides. maybe a small cooler with heat pipes on back and back side might be a better place for small fans at this point.

    I wonder how the thermals would be if you would remove most of the thermal pads that could interfere with the main heatsink and only really keep the ones that other GPU manufacturers usually put them (like the memory). Would the card have "better" thermals in terms of just the die and memory?

    The gasket is the most interesting feature to me. It reminds me of the face plates you can get for de-lidding your CPU, where it helps to distribute the mounting pressure from your heatsink, rather than letting it all rest on the die. Was the height of the gasket visibly flush with the GPU die?

  • @Squilliam-Fancyson
    @Squilliam-Fancyson Жыл бұрын

    They overachieved a bit with the thermal pad. Maybe they went to thick and there is no good contact with the gpu die. But I rly like the gasket around the cold plate. An invitation for Conductonaut application. LM would definitely push it beyond FE thermal performance.(unless the cold plate is reasonable flat)

    FE was designed by running simulations on the army of Nvidia's industry leading supercomputers. Random Chinese company can not do that, so they have rely on crude methods of just adding more metal and materials to get the same result as a much cheaper and smaller FE card.

    I actually wish they sold these in the States. Worst thing about the card to me is the ' GAMER' branding. But even if performance is slightly affected by the amount of work the heatsink has to do for so many components, this level of build quality and thermal pads should definitely be rewarded.
