Inside a GPU Die: Exploding 2080 Ti GPUs by Overheating, ft. TiN

This video shows you what the inside of a GPU looks like. Using 3 engineering sample 2080 Ti Kingpin GPUs, we show why overtemperature protection exists.

This video shows the inside of GPU silicon, including the layers between the solder balls, the substrate, and the GPU die. The idea started when we saw a customer's KINGPIN card with an exploded GPU die in the center. TiN set forth to demonstrate the dangers of disabling overtemperature protection without any cooling, although it took a few attempts to get a spectacular failure (and, ultimately, a hammer helped us show the inside of the GPU). This allows you to see what really happens if a GPU overheats.

@@GamersNexus At least this time you won't have three almost identical CPU's and start with the most expensive one. ;) I have already made up my mind about one thing: I hate it that AMD put the TDP of that 3700X so low and put the 3800X at a $70 higher price. That 3800X does not make any sense (I predict a big price cut before the end of 2019) but now you have this artificial limitation for the 3700X because of the hard limit of the XFR (maximum 0.2 GHz. higher than the boost) and if you loose XFR when you manually overclock or have some kind of automatic overclocking like on the Intel platform.

We called this "Releasing the blue smoke" back in the day. It was an old IBM joke... the chips are powered by IBM magic and when we blow one up, it releases it as blue smoke. It became a meme for any chip getting smoked, not just IBM. Not as flashy as blowing up tantalum capacitors (always fun to do that), but roughly equivalent to flushing $$ down the toilet considering how expensive some of those chips were. The other things we did... put humerous silk screen under the big chips for the benefit of tinkerers whod pull the boards apart. And in other places. One of my friends always wrote "Help, I'm being held hostage inside an EPROM!" on the silk-screen. -Matt

I wonder if the result would be far more spectacular if the GPU had enough time before overheating to at least boot into an OS and start a bench mark. I would use IPA to cool the GPU, it vaporizes rather quickly, draws a lot of heat with it. But when it all has vaporized, then we have a GPU under full load and practically no cooling. So that should be a lot more energy to create a more dramatic scene.
