Edit: Repasted the card, because I was concerned about Hot Spot temps. After repasting GPU - 73C, Memory 78C, Hot Spot 85C, & fans at 65% through whole test. (see picture 10).
Hello all,
I am dismantling and selling an Octominer mining rig that I have used for about a year. This card was used in that rigg and mined Ethereum during that time.
I modded the card with the following for thermal performance.
-
Kritical Thermal Pads - Extreme Conductivity (20 W/mK) for the VRM & Other Part.
-
https://www.coolmygpu.com/ - Copper Memory Cooling Plate
-
Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut Thermal paste for the CPU and Memory Cooling Plate
These mods kept the memory below 85C. I am unsure of what each card ran at mining, but all cards were under 85C and some were even in the low 70C range. All cards were GDDR6X which is known to run hot.
When benchmarking this card, the Temps were between 72-78C during full load. I ran the Unigine Heaven Benchmark for 30 minutes with no issues.
I cleaned the cards as best I could, I did not dismantle the heatsink or repaste them while cleaning. For the sake of transparency there was/is some corrosion/rust on the back of the card where the air was coming in the Octominer case (see picture 4, the standoff for the heatsink). My guess this was from moisture in the air as I live in Florida, and it can be humid at times. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Thanks,
Jon
