I've said this before, but I wish this was an official thing for GPUs just from a noise/cooling perspective.
No.
this is just stupid. sure it works to get rid of heat but its not practical at all.
pred ater its super practical
Ikr. How is there not a single you that even has Noctura quality cooling fans. I mean common fans aren't expensive made in bulk
GPU in generally is really to noisy from the manufactors site. In my opinion we pay way to much money for a gpu which usally is around 70 degrees while gaming and the graphics card is way to loud while gaming, even with a case with a nice airflow. I really love Linus tips! 🔥

I did. I learned from the video, and listened to him.
I purchased the small heat sinks for 6 bucks.
And used my old evo 212 (20 dollar cooler)
I put it on my 1660 super and my temps are insanely low, and allows me to sustain a higher OC core clock.
And I can't hear it at all. ANd it looks bad ass.
It really is cheap, and very easy to do.
@@crazytech5755 How'd you mod the mounting bracket?
@@MrStrangeUsername It was easy actually.
Just purchased some circular zip ties, heavy duty. I tightened each one equally very carefully while keeping it flat on top. Then I tightened each the same as a half turn for screws concept.
And it works amazing. Not a single issue. And my temp never gets above 50 now on my 1660 super with oc, netting me an extra 100 mhz giving 1-4 fps extra. that's a big deal.
And I can't hear it. btw, I used liquid metal :) put nail polish around the parts, put a VERY thin layer on. but regular thermal paste work good too.
Liquid metal just allows me to keep the fan literally completely quiet.
ruclips.net/video/GO0tpsPm0F8/видео.html
In the video you can see the 4 holes, very simple.
here is a trick. Take a zip tie, cut off the end that clips on. Now you can just make it climb up without needing to wrap around :)
I would love for more wide variety of GPU air coolers. Especially ones you can attach standard case fans to.

My fans were inaudible this whole video until I got to that part then they ramped up just enough for me to "What no it's not"
4:23 "... at most, a half a turn on each side as we tighten the thing down."
I didn't know a 570° spin was half a turn. 🤔
That's why he always says: "Do as we say not as we do."
He was tightening them until they were pushing down. Then he did that.
What David said. At the point he was spinning them there the cooler hadn't made contact. Once you feel resistance is when you slow down severely.
@@NotTheCIA1961 He said "at most, half a turn." That means loose or not, they'd better screw those puppies down, one half turn at a time. 😈
He meant tightening it fully until it won't budge, then using powertools to add another half turn.

@@ajddavid452 Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more
People talking without speaking
People hearing without listening
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dared
Disturb the sound of silence
"Fools, " said I, "You do not know
Silence, like a cancer, grows
Hear my words that I might teach you
Take my arms that I might reach you"
But my words, like silent raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells, of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made
And the sign flashed out its warning
In the words that it was forming

And tenement halls"

Actually, with BF tower coolers on CPU and on GPU the system looks dope! You should've mentioned the aliexpress heatsinks in the middle of the video to not trigger everyone with "machined heatsink". Also, you don't need this insane case. Thermaltake has some big and not so expensive options.
"it's a simple mod if you have a drill press"
Ah yes, let me just dust off the ol' workshop and get down to it.
Also a CNC to machine the heatksink for the VRMs. Super convenient lol
You can just use a drill with a bit for drilling metal. Also you can buy cheap aluminium heatsinks that you can cut down to size with a hacksaw. Honestly not a bad idea imho. Also i think they just used the CNC because they couldn't be arsed to wait for a cheap aluminium heatsink from ebay or aliexpress.
not that big of a deal if you are an engineer really

linus: Has own noctua branded cpu cooler
Video: Sponsored by deepcool
I just went the way of getting rid of all the plastic casing from my 2080S, applying some Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut liquid metal and putting on two Alpenföhn Wingboost 2 I had laying around using cable ties to mount them.
I had to solder on some of those small fan headers from an old GPU I had laying around to get the 120mm fans connected to the GPU.
Thermals and noise are pretty impressive. Even with an fairly high OC and under full load, I never saw it getting above 55°C while not even hearing any fans noise at all.
And the best thing about this mod is that I dont need to compromise on PCI slots or get a big case, I just converted a 2 slot card to a 3 slot card.
Beyond case size constraints affecting the CPU cooler you can fit, it might also be worth noting the TDP requirements of the card and what the cooler is rated for.

Guys: Corsair Obsidian Full Tower
Yup. When bigger is better, the biggest is the best.
@Zikry Ariff is what she said
I still consider GPU card designers a tad lazy. Up to now I have always managed to cool my GFX cards (semi) fanless by replacing the whining, noisy fan for a CPU cooler. With a correct case airflow setup you won't need an extra fan up to 80W DTP. And above that, just add a 500-800 RPM silent 120mm fan.
Especially the Quadro cards were excellent for it (while they came with the worst cooling fans)
And I still hope to be able to do that with the newer RTX cards once I am able to actually buy one.
update: I got another (second hand) quadro, the P4000 to be exact. And yes I modded that also with a aftermarket GPU heatsink that could take 200W. It was a bit tricky taking everything apart, but I once again have a silent card. All it requires is the bottom fan of my Lian-li Lancool II and even under heavy load it stays under 50 degrees C while the entire case remains whisper silent
Interesting idea it could be improved even further for example use a reversed case layout for having the heat exhaust from the top, and/or a riser card with an extension to free up the PCIe slots.

"It's a pretty simple mod if you have a drill press"... Yeah, that's next to my toothbrush... lol

@@DIYPerks hey, mate! 😊😊😊
This actually looked so clean, I was pretty impressed
RIGHT I'm kinda shocked I had to dog this deep before someone mentioned this.
The biggest problem is having enough space below the GPU, but otherwise it would be even quieter than having NZXT Kraken and an AIO.
Juri Haataja It *looks* like it'd fit in any 7 slot case. That's more of a guess, though
I wouldn't call that a solution to card-sag rather than a temporary patch. Sure, it's working now, but after who knows how many hours of vibration, the fact that the entire weight of both the card and the heat sink/fans is being supported by only 1 side of the bracket will likely lead to one edge of the heat sink eventually losing thermal conductivity. It will be pulled away on one side, basically.
I'd still look into further support for the back end of the card though. Maybe not that vertical acrylic strut, but I know in my case I've had good luck using a similar method, just from the back end rather than underneath it. I don't have a machine shop, so I just bought a cheap acrylic rod and took my dremel to it. Cut 2 holes in the side then used a hammer to flush-mount some stands with the bottom cut off to act as anchors for inside a drive bay, then ground a little slot in the other end to slip over the back of the card. I had to adapt it later on to add a 2nd piece that would allow it to slide UNDER the card and latch around the top, as my Rog Strix 1070Ti has a similar heat shroud to that card. No real bare-card exposure to use the bar on.

The whole 'cover up the other slots with your video card' thing is INSANE & part of the reason I haven't bought a PC new PC in over 20 years =)) The very least they should do is combine GPU & CPU cooling by making it standard by pointing the video card upward into the CPU cooler or something, which could also cool the RAM, all with a single fan = very simple solutions but would require changing from the 'ATX' type standard, which is so beyond obsolete as all these fools buy motherboards where U can't even get 2 half the slots, which R all useless N E waze as they stopped including legacy 32 bit PCI LOL

Did this WAY back when I had a HD 4850, but I used a much smaller mini tower cooler (with 3 heat pipes) I ripped out of a broken HP business desktop. Then pencil modded (volt mod) to get an insane overclock. I'm sure I had it stable at over 1GHz (650MHz stock) but ran it at around 900MHz to keep it quiet. This had to be around 2008 and, yes.. It ran Crysis ;-)
I strapped it on by drilling holes into the heat sinks legs to get zip ties in, but I slipped springs into them and used just the heads of the zip ties to fasten them to the GPU. Amazingly effective and simple

You're right, they SHOULD make video cards with ridiculously huge coolers hanging off them, but that would B admitting the $cam we already know = that all the 'buy a motherboard for your gaming' thing is a joke, as all they R really doing is 'putting their graphics card in a big box'. They should ditch the whole 'multi-purpose computing' idea 4 these 'gamers' & slap the CPU right on the graphics card, & add some USB ports. Then U have your 'computer' that is like 1/5 the size & can share the GPU cooler with the CPU & so on, all with 1 fan & blabla = kind of like the Mac ARM M1 SOC chip stuff they R doing now, but 4 X86 =)

Lol you could do this with any drill and a piece of wood but a drill press is easier... most people have a drill at home they could do this with....
@@moonsugarmedia4388 Because the new holes are right next to the ones from the factory, a drill press is your best bet. Trying to do this by hand would be a pain. You would have to start with a small bit and step up to prevent the bit from slipping into the adjacent hole. A properly clamped bracket in a drill press won't be an issue.
Aaaah, I remember doing something like this for the GTS 450 in my first PC. The fan on that thing died, so in more demanding games, my PC would just shut down due to overheating. I got a cheap cooler (that thing didn't even have a proper fan connector and just ran off a Molex) and slapped it on there. Worked like a charm!

You do realize a drill press is like 100 flat for a small one that can do this easily... And if you have a center punch you could drill those holes with a hand drill...
My drill press cost me £60
Hell to the yeah!
This was something I was planning on doing, and it's awesome to see LTT do it.
did it work out for you?
@@chancepennington6653 sorry for the late reply but yes! I have a single tower CPU cooler on my 1660 ti and it's incredibly quiet, in a full 100% load, I need to take off my headphones and put my ear right next to my PC to hear it.
I'm using a 120mm be quiet fan connected to the GPU fan header with an adapter, so it's even controlled properly by the GPU temps!
I have a way overkill cooler on my CPU as well with a be quiet fan running at 450 rpm.
4:27 "at most half a turn on each side"
-> goes 2 full rotations right away
He means only turn it half a rotation at a time when tightening. Not that you should only screw it in half a rotation.
@@MySkybreaker We all know that, but I guess you didn't understand my comment
@@xNoLiix I guess you don't know how to write what you mean in a comment.
@@SportbikerNZ yeah, a quote of a sentence from a video is definitely hard to put into a comment
@@xNoLiix Fail quote.
"at most half a turn on each side *as we tighten the thing down"*
MySkybreaker is correct.
you should've overclocked before and after to see if it can overclock further. Good video as always
I just removed the three 85mm fans with their plastic cage from my loud AMD R9-390 and replaced them with three 120mm arctic F12 PWM PST fans that I fixed with plastik straps. Thanks to PST all three fans can share one unused 4pin connector on the mainboard and I can change the speed in the BIOs or with the driver-software for the board for all three fans. Dropped the temp from 90°C to 65°C and the fans are really quiet at 1000rpm. The size got up from a two slot board to a two and a half slot board. No need to waste more place with a big CPU-Cooler. I like to think that would work with the card in the video too.
Really !!!!! No overclocking benchmarks !!!! must've been disappointing XD
:O Is Colin new to the team? Welcome Colin!
looks cool, now overclock it and compare temps VS stock, any gainsto be had? increasing the fan speeds for performance, regardless of noise
I like how he explains it like we are actually going to do it
LTT: Here's something you can do at home!
>Let me machine a custom heat sink for my VRMs
Don't forget the drill press.
Two tower air coolers in one computer just looks badass, even if it isn’t practical.
Linus...have you considered / tried GPU cooling using a water cooler type such as the Corsair H45 or similar product?
Secondly I am concerned that the VRMs are not getting enough cooling with yr mod...what do you think? ... did you check the vrm temperatures before and after the mod?
I love this. Great mod. Great video.
I'm kinda curious about the memory temps though...
>Keep the stock cooler
>Remove Asus fans and the shroud
>Install normal fans with zip ties or something
>problem solved
How to save money:
Buy Drill Press
BUY CNC MACHINE
Or but 20 cent heat sinks on ebay and use the drill press in the garage of every dad you know.
its been a year but… 2things i missed from this, how did paste look when u took it a partcfor turning it 90degrees and how was vrm temps
This is cool but I wish you guys would cover the process of installing aftermarket GPU coolers like the Arctic Extreme IV or Raijintek Morpheus 2 sometime! I'm about to give one a shot for the first time but there are few videos of working with one out there
That tumbleweed had me on the floor
I would have loved to seen some overclocking numbers between those two heat sinks
@Asian Rice Farmer that's true. That's why they sell overclocking gear and put all the options on motherboards. And why Intel sells a K SKU
That tumble weed absence of noise in the intro made me think my headphones stoped working, dont scare me like that Linus
1:18 I was jamming to their intro music and of course, that happened
