The subtle Verge burn 😏
;)
Hardly subtle
@Preston Garvey and you also need an wireless anti static bracelet
We all went there… I don’t think the verge ever dare go there again…
Wow, you make the installation look super easy, barely an inconvenience!
That installation was tight.
Followed this video to fit block to my palit 3090 yesterday, was super easy, block looks great. Temps arround 37c in furmark. Love it.
before wblock how much temps?
@@sferebbasta5940 no idea I put the block on it first.
@@sferebbasta5940 I have about 66-67 °C
In GPUZ, what's your perfcap reason? With the OE cooler, it's thermal throttled by the ram on the back of the card. This cooler doesn't seem to address that.
@@mikebroom1866 yeah this is the same reason I am watching thus video. The ram on the back of the 3090 seems to get little attention though I hear the ekwb for the 3090 does address this.
You’ve managed to entertain while educating on how to install a water block. Good job, sir!
the safest place for the screws is attatched to the original heatsink after it's removal.
Thanks for this guide. I have the Palit and it helped seeing the same card to do the EKWB. No one else seems to have fitted one yet!
This video made me finally decide to start saving up to water cool my whole system. Definitely will go with a alphacool waterblock, the kitten convinced me
I’ve literally just purchased your Water block for 3080/3090 gaming/eagle for the gigabyte 3080 Ti gaming oc , it’s the first time doing a custom loop, and Alpha Cool was the number one block everyone told me to get, I’m so looking forward to it, but slightly nervous too 👍
What worries me is the fact that in their compatibility list is stated : ”compatibility approved - visual” for Gigabyte Gaming OC 3080Ti. Did you fitted the waterblock, if so... there are any issues? Thanks
Love this setup guide, just got a block for my msi gaming x trio 3080 and this was like super useful
Great work guys!
The video is really great.
This look both affordable and easy to install, that's great.
I`m very happy to see that Palit is using the expensive capacitors on the back (all the crashing mess that was reported recently) I was worried that my Gaming Pro 3090 that will arrive in a few days was using only cheap capacitors and was gonna cause crashes
Hello, could you please measure and let me know what the spacing of the mounting holes is on these cards? The screws you're putting in at 7:50 please. You could even just measure the backplate
Any info on how this performs in different rad setups? Interested to see what happens on an with this in an lt240 setup.
thumbs up for giving the dimensions of the thermalpads in the manual to everybody for easy replacement!
I'm pretty sure he just ripped out a terminal as he was telling us to be careful of avoiding that. The white terminal around 4:20 comes right up off the board in the video.
He also put the block on the die with a hair on it, guaranteeing an uneven spread of thermal paste.
You are both correct! It is why I mention being careful as on that particular connector, nothing is holding it to the PCB. usually there are clips, or pcb mounts holding it in, but this is just push fit with the terminals. It is just the nature of the beast.
The whole card and block was dismantled and reassembled off camera to get rid of the hairs and correct the 3 mistakes that were made (although I don't think anyone has spotted the third yet!)
The problem with doing things on camera close up like this in 4k is that I have 2 light stands, and a camera in the area I need to stand. I can only see things through the camera display with the Sony A7III as well as whilst shooting in 4k, it doesn't output to a secondary monitor so it is tricky.

To put your mind at ease though (and everyone else) there is the block installed still, with the connector attached as good as new :)
@@AlphacoolGmbH classy reply.
@@AlphacoolGmbH Was it the 2 stock thermal pads stuck on to the block? If not that, then was there a missing clear washer or the black nut at the end of the video? I replayed it and couldn't see what the third one was!
Edit: Any chance you can show the block with the aRGB turned on?
@@AlphacoolGmbH Now this is how a company should behave yes we all make mistakes and its ok as long as we accept that and try to correct them..
unlike some..
Cant wait for the Eiswolf version of this!
this looks like easy fun!
Bit of advice as the screws may be different lengths, i screw them back into the cooler/backplate
Does the backplate do enough to reduce the memory overheating issue on tbe 3090 fe? I had an older alphacool gpx Pro and the who block was a large aggressive heat sink. Not that pretty but worked very well. I'm wondering if these more.pretty simple and flat back plates cover the needs of cooling the RAM on the back of the 3090.
Great video btw, really helpful! Thank you
Hey @alphacool intermational GmbH can you tell us the new card length? The Block does decrease the length significantly.
I don't habe that much place in my case and plan on building a rtx3080 custom loop. Knowing the card length with watercooling would help me a lot.
With your block what sort of memory die temperature we can expect ?
Many thanks now I know for my first waterblock in my life how to fix it 😁
Awesome. Perfect Tutorial for my Palit GamingPro :D
looks sick! I have Alienware R12 with 3080ti looking for a water cooling solution. Not enough space, willing to do pull radiator outside, just need a guide on how to - the waterblock install looks very easy, I wish you had a guide on full setup of water-cooling with tubes and everything :(
This will be my first custom GPU cooling solution, what else (except thermal grease and 240mm prefilled radiator do I need) Pump? Which one should I get for this block and 240mm prefilled radiator.
What is the thermal pad thickness of the backplate? I lost 1 piece. Thanks.
I see that the EVGA 3080 XC3 Ultra is listed as compatible. Is the included blackplate still used or do we use the stock EVGA backplate during install? Thanks for the video!
Hi Alphacool...when will your Zotac 3070 Twin Edge block be available? Performance PCs says 3rd or 4th week of January, but here it is February.
Could you please to this tutorial for the 3090 FE block?
Are those countersunk screws in the plexiglass?
I mean just a tad overtightening will crack it right?
Is it planned to have prefilled addin waterblocks fpr the rtx 30 series for your eisbaer ecosystem? I don't feel compfortable with manually filling stuff and so on (worried i might not tighten somethibg enough or too much causing damage or leaks) but would love to add the 3070 i will buy around christmas or late january (hopefully xD) into the loop to have even better gpu temps and less noise.
Had this for over a week, may be waiting months for my 3080
Thank you for the video and the cooling block for rtx 3090 extreme❤️😍
What thermal conductivity is the thermal pads? And will liquid metal work the water block with the 6800 XT Gaming X Trio?
Guys when are your 3090FE waterblock out in UK????
Got a like from me for the Verge 🔥
Hi, i am trying to confirm if this will fit my ZT-A30800F-10P because in the alphacool compatibility pdf the pricture of the card is actually different than the actual card
I lost those clear washers. Do they affect the temp? If yes, where can I buy those washers? Thx.
This was a great video.
the asus tuf variant is that a full copper plate? in the pictures it looks as so?
what is the small pad, on the GPU side, covering ? The one labeled number 4 (8x8x1mm) in the manual ?
What parts do you need other than the Nexxxos ST30 and the waterblock in order to complete an GPU AIO?
Is this applicable to all 3080/3090 card? The design layout of the board is exactly the same across all brands? I am trying to use this on the new Alienware R12 3090
Can you do a video for the 3080 FE block?
i ordered the asus tuf one for my 3080 hopefully it ships soon cant wait
Block looks great, and really straightforward to install! I'm making a CAD model for a custom SFFPC and want to make sure this will fit - are you able to tell me how far the backplate projects from the edge of the PCI-E bracket (i.e. how much thicker it makes the card), and the distance inwards from the PCIE bracket to the start of the terminal block?
they wouldn’t tell you
so can i buy this and everything else from corsair and stuff ?
that voice 😁 nice video Dave! ❤️
But my Swiss champ has a Philips head oh wait I see what just happened:p
when i put the backplate on my pny 3090 i see space between the number 8 thermal pads and the backplate. maybe i should put the 14 thermal pad ?
Exist some terminal rotary 90 degrees compatible with this waterblock?
Is it okay, that the white pads on the backplate (middle) doesn't cover the whole electric parts there? 8:40
I have this Palit card, what temps difference can I expect with this AIO?
these blocks can be used with ek cpu blocks/radiators etc right? ek does not make blocks for my particular 3070 but alphacool does.
Is the thermal paste sticky or is it coming of easily?
Never seen someone put a pad on the middle chips on the backplate, is that safe?
I bought this cooler and wanted to install it but there is one screwhole missing by the big 4 one in the middle shouldnt be normal right?
6:35 I didn't see you take off the plastic from the tiny square. Is that it? Also, what are the differences between the white and gray thermal pads?
the colour
Which thermal pad i have to use for a Rtx3080 ti? The pad from the 3080 or 3090?
Thank you for the video! I need help please. I just bought GIGABYTE gaming GeForce RTX 3080 ti 12 GB GDDR6X graphics card. Will this waterblock work? Thanks in advance
Alphacool will you be replacing XC3 buyers reference 3080 waterblocks with XC3 variants? The block is not compatible and does not cool the VRM's properly, it is not compatible eventhough it was advertised that it was
Can you use liquid metal on these?
So the reference design doesn't use a leaf spring?
Does this fit the Dell Alienware 3080? The one in the R11??
I mean its nice BUT my backplate thermal pads are not making good contact on my 3070 block with the PCB.
Is it a single slot card with the waterblock installed?
Block looks amazing. Was gonna go EK but now I think I wana get this. Do you do silver back plates to match my silver alphacool rads?
Ek = horrible quality
@@MrKZdemos EK is definitely overpriced, quality is usually pretty good though
@@MachuPichuu second this. Phanteks blocks are the highest quality and best looks imho. EK is usually a good middle ground but they're pricing their 3080 blocks is a bit high
at the moment we don't do silver backplates, we might do them in the future though. :)
What gpu junction temp do you get while mining?
How thick is the waterblock with the PCB installed, 26mm?
Is there a particular pump I need or does it come with the block?
Do they same the same waterblock the 3080 and 3090? Or are the model specific?
are your products as in toto kits available in india?
PLS make an WB for MSI 3090 Ventus, too.
In work, presale will start this week.
Can you tell me the name of your screw tools kit?
Haha i see what you tried to create the flow of water is in form of alpha.. 😂 🙌👏
Hi, will it fit the Gigabyte RTX 3080 Waterblock? My GPU comes from factory with a waterblock, however it is rusting and I would like to replace it. Thank you.
Good vid, thanks.
what are the input and output holes for the water pump?
so how does your AIO kit address the Ram on the backside of the zotac rtx 3090 Reference board?
Will this bring down the memory junction temp on 3090????
I'm just curious. Can I expect any kind of RTX 3080 with factory built in water cooling to be ever available?
I would like to have a water cooled RTX 3080 but without need to dismantle the brand new card (which voids warranty I guess) and throw away a lot of its components (chassis & air coolers).
You are too early, there will be some RTX 3080 cards with a water block on it available in the future. And some of them are from us ;-)
I would really love to see a waterblock manufacturer making a block that also cools the back of the PCB. Perhaps it will happend with the incomming 3080 20GB DRR6X versión.
Aquacomputer has a heatpipe going to the backplate, although the design is not my cup of tea.
@@Kokinkun 🤔 didn't know about that, perhaps a single heatpipe can be just enouhg, surely its better that only a backplate, although a direct coper plate with fins over the back of the DIE and the back of the VRM would be ideal. But ss i said, im very curious to see what waterblock manufacturers come up with 😋
ruclips.net/video/lo9r0jC6yzo/видео.html
its close, although I don't like the push fittings and the reducers.
@@mr.not.so.perfect.666 its a good idea to make kit compatible with all backplates, but i also think that theese small fittings are a bit a mess, i'd like to see a better solution. Btw i created my own watercooled backplate.
Fits this also on the MSI 3080TIT ventus X Suprim?
Are you guys going to be making a 3070 video?
what other components would I need to complete a liquid cool setup with this block? thanks
Radiator, reservoir with a pump.... some tubes and a few fittings. And.... liquid. Thats all.
Does this waterblock fit the Asus Tuf OC 3080?
On the screw is warranty decal. So..we lose quaratie with this??
can i use it on my gainward rtx 3090 phönix?
I bought this set up today I think.. 500ish all in lol. Crazy stuff.
So how the water will cool? Because the travel distance of the liquid is to short. I think its just reheating the water inside. Could you explain it to me pls.
Heat is energy and this is absorbed and transported away by the water and released into the air via the radiator. This means that water does not cool in the true sense. Copper absorbs heat and stores it until another medium, in this case water, absorbs and dissipates the heat. The thicker the copper, the longer the distance the heat has to travel, which is why we try to keep the cooler base as thin as possible. The thicker the copper, the worse the heat transfer. Even if copper is a super material, but thinner and less is always better for coolers. The faster the heat can get to the water, the better the cooling performance. In the case of an air cooler or a radiator, copper or aluminium is placed on as much surface area as possible so that copper or aluminium emit heat to the air via the surface. But the copper part of a radiator does not really have a surface in contact with the air and can therefore only release the heat via the water. Therefore, again, the thinner the copper above the components, the better the heat transfer to the water.
I'm getting 61°C on my eiswolf, is this normal temps for a 3080 vision oc?
Is there no single slot bracket at all aviable for your blocks?
I've got the exact same question!! Need one for the RTX3090FE!
No, we dont have brackets for those blocks.
Can anyone explain to me where it doesn't fit the founder card ? don't tell me it's that ffffff 24 pins connector.
do you know if this fits the Dell 3090's
I bought one of these for my Asus Strix 3090, correct model 11940. The block looks nice and keeps the GPU cool. The problem is the thermal pads they sent with it is only 1mm not thick enough to make contact with memory. My memory temps are through the roof. From reading online eveyrone has the same problem. The thermal pads that its replacing is 2mm with the general view that 1.5mm is the correct size. Anyone else had this problem. To buy replacement pads are a small fortune which is annoying to say the least
The 1mm pads included are Wrong, and Alphacool has yet to address this flaw. These waterblocks work well otherwise with 1.5mm pads.
Can i use the watercooled gpu without anything else watercooled?
What are the screw driver sizes?
I the 3090 Fe version of this block. While the core temp is great the mem temp is still hitting over 100c. Thermal pads from this kit were installed properly. Is there any thermal pads upgrades you would recommend?
You can try to order 15w, or even 17w thermal pads from amazon.
