Wonderful video, I have been waiting for someone to do a review on this block for this card. How are the memory and vrm temps with the block on? They did a very unique design with this block doing multiple o-rings and passages
After playing Red Dead Redemption 2 (this game is GPU-bound even with 3090) for an hour, here are the stabilized temps taken directly from EVGA Precision X1 software:
GPU1: 51C (This is also the canonical GPU temperature reported by other monitoring software, including Windows)
GPU2: 65C
GPU MEM1: 57C
GPU MEM2: 58C
GPU MEM3: 57C
GPU PWR1: 63C
GPU PWR2: 66C
GPU PWR3: 71C
GPU PWR4: 67C
GPU PWR5: 57C
@@LGTMApproval did you Overclock anything?
@@MartinSugar2k I didn't since my goal is to reduce noise and temperature. I could try raising the power target in EVGA Precision X1 though. Lmk what data you want to see.
@@LGTMApproval thanks for uploading this video. I used it for my EVGA RTX 3080 ti FTW3.
After a few Benchmarks, gaming i have really similar temps.
OC: Memory +700MHZ GPU +125MHZ.
@@DoubleYouRandyBe does it fit well for your 3080 ti ftw3? how the temps?
Very nice video. Stunning waterblock. Absolutely beautiful.
Smartmove using the hair dryer to warm up the pads and paste to help remove the PCB that's a nice little tip I'm going to use right there thank you for the video
Very nice this will help with the instalation when God knows my block from EK will arrive. I want to see some overclocking if possible.
Wow 20c is a lot, great job!
Great video Jason - what effect did the waterblock have on the ICX RAM and memory junction temps before and after? The 3090 FTW both throttle at 110degC junction temp and this seems to be approx 75-80degC as reported by the ICX ram temp sensors on the FTW3 and FTW3 Ultra cards. Edit: Ah I have found some answers in the comments below - any thoughts on the back plate / RAM temps?
Thanks very much 4 the video
Thanks for the video bro
What GDDR6X Junction temps do you get in HWInfo64 when running Furmark or Mining?
They should be providing water flow block for the rear side to replace the back plates, for vram temps
Thank RNGesus you have the same card and was doing the same block I was planing
What were the dimensions of the thermal pads you used? Around the GPU die itself? Backplate etc.?
Are there any waterblocks with backplate having some liquid flowing on the backplate also ?
Hey , Thanks for great video! Is this o11d normal or XL version, also what model/size pump and radiator`s are these ? thanks
50°c under load seems a bit high. I've not got a specific reference but looking at your system you have good radiators and fans. I guess it all depends on ambient temp. Usually I have around 21°c ambient.
I think same, it should be 40c after test
HI i have an RTX 3090 FTW3 aswell and a 011 Dynamic (not XL). I saw in the comments that you managed to close the sidepanel and i definitely can't on mine once i added the waterblock (Barrow one). I was wondering if you could post pictures with it closed or something so i can see if it will fit on my pc or not, i'd appreciate that a lot!
what thermal pad thickness did you use for the frontplate and what thicknesses for backplate? loved your vid!
1mm front 3mm back. 1.5mm would be best for front, 2mm might cause contact with cold plate issues.
is this waterblock worth it after months of used? wondering if it will fit a 3080 ti ftw3
On the 3090, it is imperative to put the active backplate on water, otherwise the memory junction temperatures will still be high.
I just got my RTX 3090 FTW3. I'm interested in doing this too. This would be my first custom loop I'm gonna be doing for my rig. What size tubing and fittings did you use? Can you also tell me the radiators and pump/reservoir you used?
Did you ever do this? If so how did it go? Considering doing this to my rig as well; but I’m all air cooled right now. Would I have to water cool my CPU as well to make it worth it?
Pls help i have the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3080 - EVGA FTW3 ULTRA GAMING andIntel Core i7-10700KF 8-Core 3.8GHz what do i need to make a full liquid coolant system
Hi Jason great video, I installed the same block on the same card and left unpluged the same part as you (the white one), when I start PX1 all my sensors are gone, only GPU is displaying, does that conector on the back of the PCB has something to do with it? GPU-Z reports well as other software but not PX1...
I don't think so. That connector should be entirely for RGB.
@@LGTMApproval thank you Jason I installed lots of waterblocks and this was very easy so i honestly don't know what happened. I saw that another guy had the same issue but with EK. So far it's doing weird things and gpu-z crashes after sone time. For me the chip that controls the sensors went bad and the card doesn't know what to do because before even on air performed much better and now on water even though temps are great acts weird :/
Got an AC block on preorder for my FTW3 3080 ultra. Can you leave the EVGA LED connected for a bit of light under the backplate? Thanks
Sure you could. However the backplate is a solid block so the light can only possibly come out from the side gap. The RGB from the main block itself will dwarf the tiny little bit of light coming from the EVGA logo.
Did anyone experience the issue of this card not displaying anything on the monitor screen after installing the water block? please answer asap
haven you tried putting the stock cooler back on?
What is your water temp? It shows the performance of the block. My bykski has 7c delta gpu temp- water temp at 350w load. 10c-13c delta at 480w-520w load and 16c delta at 620w load.
What about vram temps on mining?
darn, i thought the backplate was active-cooled, too bad!
How much clearance you have after installing the waterblock? I have the exact same case and gpu. Trying to figure out if the block will fit. Thanks
My case is Lian Li O11 XL. There is less than 1mm clearance between the glass side panel and the GPU block (it barely fits). The reason that I chose this block instead of EK is because EK won't fit but this one will. Hope this helps.
@@LGTMApproval Heya Jason. Did you check this waterblock adaptator? Bykski-VGA-XS18-QSQUALL. Its an L adaptator for waterblocks. Only we need to know if it fits on the alphacool. Can you give me the "measures" of the original connector? (screw to screw to screw)
When did you order your Eisblock? I'm still waiting for mine. I ordered it on December 18
I ordered on Performance PCs on 12/22 and shipped on 1/20. Not sure about Aquatuning though if you ordered through them.
@@LGTMApproval thanks for the reply! I ordered through Alphacool's website. congrats, looks great!
Mine runs a lot cooler than this with the same waterblock. I used Liquid Metal however and its on a 480mm radiator. I also converted the backplate to "Active cooling" DIY with a ram block (mounted ram block to backplate and used thermal paste between backplate and the ram block). My GPU idle's in low 20's and barely even breaks into the 40's even when gaming. Ambient temps between 23-25c.
I'd love to see how you did this. Do you have any pictures, or can you describe it in a little more detail?
@@ntharo Sure thing - here's a link to what it looked like. I basically bought an alphacool 4 slot ram block (honestly a 6 slot would be even better, but I was impatient and could get a 4 slot faster). Before installing the gpu backplate, I drilled 4 small holes in the backplate and mounted the block to the backplate. I used actual thermal paste but the few examples I saw in forums used memory pads for less mess (but I'm sure paste will transfer better). imgur.com/a/zLoZUNz
Are you using the supplied thermal pads or have you tried replacing them? I have this block coming in and I'm trying to figure out whether I should upgrade the pads for better memory cooling. The default are 3 W/mK, but it gets expensive real quick if you try to find better ones... wondering if it's worth it.
@@milantrenovszki I'm using the stock ones. I contemplated the same but ended up sticking with the stock ones since getting much better like you said gets expensive quick. I'm not sure if upgrading the pads, without active cooling would help a lot mainly because once the backplate is saturated with heat there is nothing other than case airflow movement to dissipate that heat, if that makes sense. However with active cooling it might indeed make an even bigger difference.
@@tpmeredith I asked Alphacool about the stock pads and they said it's their 3 W/mK one. I found the 12 W/mK Gelid GP pads for $10 per sheet on Aliexpress which is not horrible, so once they get here (probably a month), I'll see if they make any difference. I mine in my downtime and memory temps are main concern, so I wanted to make sure heat transfer is not impeded there. Btw, have you tried mining with your setup? If yes, what are your junction temps? I'm also contemplating going with the RAM block for the backplace, would be much cheaper than the MP5Works solution, it just has smaller coverage, so not sure.
Broh you tweakin? Why is everything so fast? Did you have to make it in under 7 minutes, would a been nice to get a better look at board
How are your temps from air cooling to water cooling? I have a the O11D case with the front distro block with just a CPU being water cooled. I have a 3090 ftw 3 ultra and I want to water cool it but it's a bit expensive and I don't know if it's worth it. I get about 63 c on warszone at ultra settings at 1080p
How do you control the rgb for the block?
EVGA precision X1 software
I installed this on my 3090 and I keep getting error 97 with no boot, it worked fine with stock cooler. Any ideas?
Have you check your connections (PCI-E and power)? Also try putting the stock coolers back on and see if it posts, to rule out any possibility of hardware failure.
@@LGTMApproval it was that little plug on the pcb, not sure what’s it for I’m new to this, but that fixed it for me thanks.
@@chrisb9900 what little plug?
@@MartinSugar2k it wasn’t the issue, my card works sometimes then stops. That plug is the rgb connection for stock cooler. My card happened to work for a second after I unplugged it lol. Just a coincidence.
@@chrisb9900 Any updates?
What the junction temperature with that backplate? Have you tried mining?
I really whant to know it
Is the case o11 dynamic XL?
Yes, and the GPU block fits when mounting horizontally although it's extremely close to the side panel.
醉了，即使是水冷，背板上的vram还是被动散热
Not if you make the backplate active cooled too, like I mentioned in the other comments. :)
too bad the load balancing on this card prevents the xoc bios from doing anything. evga shit the bed on this card. I wish I'd waited and got an fe card
@@jeffmccloud905 I definitely bought it for doing moderate oc, and that's why I'm irritated. every other 3090 pulls the proper wattage when flashed with xoc bios and will pull 500w, but ftw3 is load balance limited to 450 (75 pcie slot and 125 each pcie cable) its just unfortunate that one of the highest priced factory oc models performs basically full stock on the xoc bios and requires a shunt mod to do more.
The 3090 Strix and 3090 Gaming X Trio both pull 600+ watts with the EVGA Kingpin 1000 watt BIOS. My 3090 FTW3 rarely hit 450 watts with any of the BIOS version for the EVGA 3090s including the various BIOS versions for the kingpin cards.
@@Mildly_Amused mine pulls at most 430. it's because once the pcie slot pulls around 75ishw it stops pulling more power completely instead of pulling more from the third pcie cable. the card is dumb lol. you have to shunt mod the pcie shunt to fix it
I have the 3080 ftw3 ultra with this block, I'm boosting to 2160.... Staying at 2145 to 2130 in games..... I'm able to get the full 450 watts power draw. Yes there is a load balance issue... But to be honest u won't see much gains with more power... Anything past 2200 isn't scaling
@@rahimdamji9602 you're lucky then, because my 3090 ftw3 ultra refuses to pull more than 430w even on the 1000w kp bios. kinda sad because I bought this to overclock more than game. thankfully I can sell it for what I paid for it.
edit out all the time you spend struggling so that this video doesnt waste so much time
