but the number one is the cheater, which would be difficult

@@drizzle1482 season 1 winner? I consider that one as the "top fan" for a small size at least.

I was literally waiting for him to do it in this video lol

Now I want to see him figure out how to use the cheater fan on a GPU.

Put that fan that runs at 3000rpm.

*If you have a 3D printer to begin with.

no, it is easier and cheaper to buy a prebuild

@@rafamacamp It's easier to get a 3D printer than PC parts

Just buy a laptop 🤡

@@Aesavyx Depends on where you live.

Duct tape?! No; you’re supposed to use hot glue!

cable ties

Tweezers

BTW, there is a “duct tape”, that used in aviation (don’t remember correct name), sometimes pretty much unexpected, for example - temporarily fix a hole in the wing))) I think that kind of “duct tape” can be used to hold fans on a video card without any problem)))

@@thiagorabelo01 exactly! couldn’t remember ) thnx

Naaaa more like; we are gonna hire him

Nah see all the cheap plublicity they are getting from him? All for the cost of 2-3 fans. On top of that all the free engineering what not to do or try this. This is a gold mine for fan developers.

The question this video posses is do I buy noctua fans for my gpu or do I buy a noctua gpu either way money for noctua

DIY but people have to buy Noctua fan to reach the same goal as him, so... it's a win win for Noctua

Yup! 😎

That's a great idea for any 2d part

My microcenter is always picked clean... what store do you go to?

@@Vegatablez Denver and Kansas city

@@technewb8241 that explains it

Anyone been to the microcenter near cincinnati?

Dallas has all the Radeon cards - and $2000+ nVidia cards

Seems like the heatsink was the limiting factor as far as cooling goes and I've never noticed gfx card makers being concerned with noise levels, maybe if this joint venture sells well we'll get to see more 120mm fans on cards.

1. Temps were the same.. sure it was less noisy but temps are more important. 2. It would easy be a 4 slot card as slim 120mm fans arent efficiant like normal 120mm fans. 3080FE with small 80/92mm fans runs perfectly cool for example

It’s because it’s extends the life of the card and repairing the fan would be easier

Some cards have slightly larger fans. My Red Dragon 5700xt uses 100mm fans for example. Still not 120mm though

@@l0ki4321 unless you are mining on those and have them isolated...I think 10db noise reduction is a good reason to go with the extra effort in to making something like this. And if the official card is reasonably more expensive than the regular version, again it's worth it. If it's like 200-300$ more expensive then...yeah it's not worth it.

The one in the video has 3 fans and logically 3 plugs on the pcb but If you only use 2 does the controller behave the same as it uses 3 or is it just programmed to react to the heat and it doesnt matter how many fans? Im a noob

@@franzrecht6092 The fan connectors on a GPU is not a normal pc case fan connector. So you plug them into the motherboard or a fan controller. You can use software to control them. But in my case the Noctua fans are so good i dont really need to do anything but plug them in and make sure they run. My 2080ti went from 88c full load to 65c. But the most noticable thing was the greatly reduced fan noise. My PC is totally quiet thanks to Noctua ♥

Honestly, since i don't care about noise i'd use some ippc fans which run at 3k rpm

@@federicob.8313 How can you not care about noise ? But yes if you don't, why not go for some Delta 11k rpm 100w fans ?

That would be cool

I remember more than quite a while ago, when the Corsair water blocks were leaking. MH was among the first to report this and Jay called him a no-one and he was obviously faking the test for video views. As much as I would like to think everyone is okay with everyone these days, I don't see how I'd be able to work with someone that said all of that about me.

@@Christopher_S Damn I didn't know Jay went in on MH in the past. Doesn't make sense but Jay seems to have D-bag tendencies.

@@kenpumphrey8384 Unfortunately so. It was at the start of 2020, about the Corsair GPU waterblock. MH was the first to spot this, and let Corsair know, they said it was just a defective unit, so send it in for them to check and they'll replace it. The replacement did the same thing, and MH reported on that too. Basically, it leaked if any pressure was on the fittings area. People asked Jay his thoughts on it because he gave the product a rave review, and then claimed that MH was manipulating the issue to gain views. It was sad to see, because Jay instantly took Corsairs word on the matter, that it was only a handful of products with this issue (it was not, there was a rework done (which still did not fix the problem)). Only in June (2020) I think it was, did Jay admit that there was actually an issue, and I've not once seen him say sorry for his accusations toward MH. Either way, personally, even if he did say sorry to me, I couldn't work with him going forward after that.

@@Christopher_S I remember that water block issue. I just didn't see all of the content. I'm going to go back and look for it. Thanks for the info.

56° is cooler than you really need. 70° would be very much fine as well.

why must you have it so cool? 80 C is fine but my 980 Ti (founders stock blower design) runs hot at 86 C

@@Sebbl3 depends on your definition of 'fine'. GPU Boost starts dropping frequency at 30° on ampere.

@@Dimondminer11 every 5° over 30 equates to a 15mhz drop. By 86°,my card would be throttling, the gpu hotspot would be coming up on 100°,and my VRAM would be overheating

In the 3090, it s not the core temps problème, it s the vram temps who is the problem. Unfortunately, it s a design issue. Some of the vram are not cooled a all and can reach +105c. I think It will be a real challenge to do a diy cooler for this beast, if an after market cooler can do it, I will buy it and I pretty sure a lot of 3090 owner will do the same !

He's got to send it back

@@mattymattffs Most likely yes, but Digital Storm might be interested in a collab, if they are asked again. It feels like good advertisment to me.

Nah, he probably did it for way cheaper. Oh wait, he needed a 3D Printer. Let's see: A12x25 fans are $29.95 US according to Newegg. He needed two, so that's $48.90 for the fans. For the 3D printer material, we'll say he used 250g of material (equivalent to a massive print). You can get 1kg of 3D printer filament for less than $20 on some stores (PLA should be adequate, or you can use ABS). So the cost of the 3D printing material should be around $5 or less, depending on how cheap you can get the filament. Let's also say that the glue he used cost $5, and the screws used to attach everything cost $2. Adding everything up, you get $60.90, excluding the tools you need to do the conversion. So it seems ASUS is marketing this as a premium product?

@@williamhuang8309 I didn't need the math done, my comment was sarcasm. But yea, you could buy the 3D printer with the fans and you'd still save a few bucks. ASUS is nuts...

​@@dominic.h.3363 I was about to say with the $600 you could buy a new 3D printer and also make this thing 🤣

@@williamhuang8309 don't you think PLA will deform in the time with temps around 50-60*C ? ( I have a RX580, running easily in the 70-80*C range so, PLA would be a concern XD )

@Thomas Hannah Nowhere. I've read the same announcement article everyone else did. No other region-appropriate information about pricing or availability.

As he had the wires free when he attached the cooler to the card, I'd expect he attached the wires to a chassis or CPU fan header on the motherboard. There are adapters to convert the PWM plugs from the GPU to the standard PWN plug, but I don't know how safe that is to do. (I've been starting research on my own shroud for a couple weeks now and wiring the fans has been one of the points of concern for me.)

@@JLProPhoto I've deshrouded my GPU (1070 Ti) and run case fans off the GPU header. Hasn't caused any issues in the past few years.

@@JLProPhoto Thank you for the information.

@@teguh.hofstee do you have them running on a curve or do they just go at 100 all the time?

@@JLProPhoto I run them off a curve, I used to control them with a custom curve using afterburner but I think right now they're just running whatever the GPU has as its stock curve. The fans are still idle until it hits like 45C or something.

i seen that, lucky timing for me

The PLA shouldn't be getting anywhere near 60 degrees since the actual gpu isn't over that, but that would be an interesting thing to test with a hot running and poorly ventilated case. Maybe just plastic wrap the case.

thats actually not a problem. the fans cool the plastics. ive printed fan ducts for hot ends in pla :-)

This is not a problem, I did this to my own gpu too. The 2 noctua fans are still attached to the PLA and the cooler. It has been running in my poorly ventilated p400s for almost a year now. Though I am thinking about reprinting them in ABS, because right now the parts have different colours 😅
