It's worrying to see GPU cooling system dumping the heat directly onto the CPU, RAM and motherboard components. That's the only thing that left me skeptical after watching the presentation.
- redisman 6y agoI mean that's where the air will go anyway as it rises up, just more inefficiently.
- jiofih 6y agoWhat do you mean? The fan design is pretty standard. Either way it won’t matter, as hot air should be extracted from the case, it’s not gonna meaningfully change the temp on anything it hits.
- shantara 6y agoThe back fan flows the air through a hole in the GPU, past the thermal tubes and carries the hot air above the GPU to the upper part of the motherboard. Which is not in any way a standard design with the hot air going directly outside the PC case. https://youtu.be/ALEXVtnNEwA?t=3283 https://youtu.be/ALEXVtnNEwA?t=3283
- jiofih 6y agoThe non standard part is pushing hot air out of the back of the gpu itself - “dumping the heat directly onto the CPU, RAM and motherboard components” to be extracted by the system fan is what every existing design does...
- shados 6y agoA few weeks/months after release, 3rd parties are going to come out with a bazillion different thermal solutions, including self contained liquid cooling, like they always do. So that's a minor issue. Just don't buy the reference model.
