That’s the comparison we were waiting for :)
Great work mate!
Really enjoy watching your content. Always the right amount of detail i'm looking for.
I would highly suggest creating chapters/timestamps for your videos. Thanks and keep it up
Thanks for putting up this video.
A minor flaw when it comes to conclusions/ table comparison on Sabrent Heavy Write temperature. It started at 31C @18:43 and finished at 40.9 C @21:03 , a rise of 9 degree.
Still, I'd agree to the conclusion to get either Sabrent or Elecgrar, both will serve just fine give the price delta.
This is the one we've all been waiting for! 👍👍👍
Best channel on yt when it comes to ps5 memory and heatsinks (from what I watched so far) hands down! I appreciate your dedication!
I've been waiting for this video to drop for so long.
Thanks for taking the time to make this video!
Thanks for the kind words man
Definitely have been looking forward to this one!
This video is so hot, we're gonna need all of these heatsinks combined to cool off.
Agreed
Another fantastic informative video. Thank you
I was waiting for this.
You are always on top of the PS5 tech. I wanted the best and I’m glad I followed your advice and purchased the Seagate Firecuda530 and the Sabrent heatsink months ago. Thank you.
You're my model.
Goals
Fits like a glove ??
I'm confused.. are you supposed to use the Sabrent heatsink as well as the heatsink that comes on the seagate? so instead of putting the m.2 panel back on you'll have 2 heatsinks together? anyone know?
@@johncole4882 did you get this answered? This was my question as well.
Great video thanks 🙏🏼
Great video!
Dude that Ps2 style faceplate is amazing
Thank you Robbie Andrews, you are the best youtuber of all time!
And a surname! Thanks buddy
This is the coolest youtube channel of all time!
Well done!
Love that retro ps5 skin you have definitely want one of my own.
This is really helpful Information, helps us prevent our expensive console from being permanently damaged from heat, but man, since when did gaming get this damn expensive just to have more storage space lol
I love this content. Thank you. Would like to see a review and a heat test of a water cooled ps5 vs base ps5
If such a kit exists!!!, DEFINITELY
@@nascompares I haven’t seen one to buy yet. Guess only people who can cnc or 3D print their cases. Anyhow. I look forward to more content
I'm pretty satisfied with my sabrent heat sink, though I do like the look of the elecgear. I'm interested to see what other heatsink designs come out in the future
+1! I have the Sabrent too. But the Elecgear looks so cool. Its so overkill but well , these is something xbox users dont have and its so cool
@@alexsantander Could you imagine people making heatsinks for that proprietary SSD from the X Series? Installation instruction: Break the plastic off of the SSD, glue heatsink to SSD, done.
@@High.on.Life_DnB 😅
Thank you.
Always interesting to watch.Just a thought regarding the slightly higher temps for the ineo heatpipe,would you get lower ambient system temps if you covered up the gap that is left in the top of the ssd slot?This would in theory totally encase the slot.
Great video!!, do you remember what thickness of thermal pads you used on the Elecgear since it provides a few options.
I like your ps5 design 😊
just a curious question i’m sure others also thought about. what would happen if your ssd already comes with a heatsink but on top of that you use that sabrent heatsink cover or elecgear heatsink cover? will it run cooler or there will be no difference?
At the write activity we see completely different numbers than what you say or what is written in the table at the end. For example, the sabrent had a delta of 10 degrees, but you say it had only 1 degree.
Great video! In terms of performance not price, what heatsink would you personally go with?
Hi! Thanks for the video, very informative and detailed, as always. Please could you give an advise on the thermal pads thickness you use? I think it would be useful for many. Just got my Firecuda 530 2tb and Sabrent heatsink. It seems like stock Sabrent thermal pad doesn’t fit tightly to the ssd controller. I’ve bought Thermal grizzly 3mm pad and it looks like it has tight fit on the controller and nands. Anyway, could you please give any recommendations on the pads manufacturer/model and thickness for users who have the same issue with the controller/nand thickness difference? Thank you in advance. 👍
I have purchased Sabrent and using it with SN850. I think i will be just fine.
Thanks for the video.
Did you say you can use the Gammix S70 Blade with its heat spreader and the Sabrent heatsink together, on another video.......or did I dream that? 🤔
I just got the elec gear for my ps5 and I will have you know the box and packaging of it has changed from your written synopsis and is much better in that term now
Exactly what I was looking for! I’ve got the Sabrent but I’m seriously considering returning it for the Elecgear after seeing this. Appreciate the work on this!
That's exactly what I'm doing. Already ordered the ElecGear now.
Curious as to why you would pay double for something that doesn’t offer much difference than the Sabrent? You looked at the conclusion with the summary of the temp changes correct? Sabrent is clearly the “winner” especially for the price point…
@@Mexanese8 not sure how you took the Sabrent as being the better heatsink from the conclusion.
He clearly says the Sabrent is the best bang for your buck but in terms of raw performance, the ElecGear definitely wins.
Seeing how there is only a £10 difference in price between the Sabrent and the ElecGear, it is probably the better long term move to switch to the ElecGear especially if you are a heavy case user. The £10 premium in my opinion isn't unwarranted due to the mere fact that they've incorporated a pure copper heat pipe in the ElecGear.
@@Mexanese8 Yes I agree, I ordered the Sabrent as well at 3x less $ the price of Elecgear . There is a spin off brand, GRAUGEAR PS5 for a slight price increase over the Sabrent
If I were to apply a 1mm copper heatsink to a WD BLACK SN850 as if it were a XPG Gammix Blade with it's 1mm heatsink and then use the Sabrent heatsink would that bring the same results as the elecgear or be overkill or harmful to the device and console?
The fins on the eluteng are at 90 degrees to the airflow on the ps5 aren't they?
They're obstructing the exhaust without aerating the drive
got a bare firecuda 530 2tb for my pcie4 pc.
will you be doing a pc heatsink recommandation video? I just used the thermal guards on my aorus x570 pro and called it a day for now...
I bought the Firecuda 530 2TB SSD, and now have the Sabrent Heatsink... they work well with each other??
I'm not seeing enough to take my Firecuda 530 out to put a different heatsink on (Warship Pro\Eletung style). I keep my room very cool (18-21c) so it will never go over 45c under heavy write or read so there's no reason to change it out, especially with the longevity of the drive. Also the other heatpipes showed to increase PS5 system temps by several degrees and that is a trade off when anything under 50c is longterm stable for these SSDs
Would you take a ssd with heatsink like the WD_Black SN850 2TB or another SSD with the ElecGear Heatsink? What would be better?
Hi Nas can i use the Sabrent when using a ssd that already has a heatsink or is it one or the other.. cheers
If you have the firecuda 4tb with ekwb heatsink would it be better to change the heatsink to the ineo heatpipe or elecgear for long gaming seasons? If I followed your videos the other 2 heatsinks only drop the temps like 3 to 5 degrees?
Wasn’t the clear winner the Elecgear as it’s average temps were much lower than the other heat syncs? I realize that he said ambient exterior temps varied based on where he lives but the Elecgear was so much cooler than the others.
Is it really worth forking out extra money for different thermal pads than the ones that come with the elecgear??
I know I'm late to the party here but the Ambient Room temperature on each day of testing should have been included just for information purposes. People see lower numbers on screen and automatically think it's the best. I understand your testing is to see the differential but not knowing the actual room temperature when each test was conducted is a bit of a misnomer. The Elecgear had the lowest overall temperature during each test but what was the room temperature when testing was performed? 18C? 20C? 22C? Great video and very informative nonetheless but in the future, it would be nice to include the ambient room temperature too.
Waiting for the serbrent 4 plus 4tb to drop in price paired with the elecgear after watching this 👌🏻 was unsure on which heatsink like you said its not a PC 👍🏻
Sabrent is really good. Have the heat sink and it has been flawless
I would like to see if these bigger ssd heatsinks pre-heat the air that is going into the ps5.. If the cooler ssd causes the rest of ps5 to heat up, i would choose a hotter ssd (and cheaper heatsink too)
„I hate seagulls“ 😄
No worries, they actually bring a nice background sound. Nice knowing you are streaming at a sea side.
*Cleans poop from window for the 2nd time in 2021* ...sure...they are the best!
@@nascompares LOL. Totally agree. I just wasn‘t considering the poop effect rather the audio effects.
smashing ! :-)
36 degrees is super good right?
How's the durability of Sabrent? This is important to me cuz I expect them to last for years
Would be nice to see the elecgear with the firecuda 530 4tb vs the ek heatsink that comes with the firecuda 🙏🏻🤞🏻
Thumbs up before I have even watched it 😂👍
I kinda want the ElecGear!
Since it’s currently not available, I think I’m going with the Sabrent.
same wish it was available
Should I use gelid 1mm or 1.5mm thermal pad with the firecuda 530 2tb and elecgear heatsink
I would like to see this test done with the Darkplates V2. Since DBrand put a fan cutout on the sides of the plates, the fan may pull more air directly through the plate rather than over the heatsinks of the 3, that may change the results.
Haha I just had the same thought! Hopefully he's able to pick them up, seems like these airflow heatsink designs with the fan cutouts could be a really nice solution
dark plates apparently don't do much in heat dissipation
Where can I get that dope black ps2 style font shell covering design for my PS5?
Will the sabrent heatsink and cover combo work with a fire cuda 530 ?
I have the Elecgear installed. Very happy with it! My advice is too also buy some quality thermal pads. Gelid Solutions GP-Ultimate 15W/mk is a very good choice. 👌🏻
What thermal pad thickness would you recommend for the Elecgear? Thanks.
@@li_li.n I bought 1mm and 1.5mm. I put the 1mm on the nand chips and the 1.5mm on the controller because the controller was lower. Now it's all nice and even! I used it in combination with the Firecuda 530 4TB.
@@dynamike549 Awesome! Thanks for the reply!
Thanks.
@@natashahouston19 I would advice that you do! Look at this video: ua-cam.com/video/vdIIA57treo/v-deo.html
I not understand… why you tell sabrent better if the eLecgear have the lower temperature in all the test…
I appreciate the work you did, but the temps you say and the temps showing are different. also, are the labels on the tests wrong? I had a hard time knowing the controller tests from the air temp tests.
This
How does this compare to the Graugear cover?
ok how did you ge that black faceplate and ps5 sticker
I wonder how the DBrand Darkplate 2.0's will affect these numbers with their fan cutouts... Any chance you have some ordered? Thanks for the info and thorough testing!
I've considered the same thing... Hesitant to pre-order them...
@@joe2000gt I have the first ones they put out and it's a really quality product. The 2.0 don't look quite as nice as the original collar design imo, but I'm stoked to have some additional cooling (however middling it may be), especially considering these airflow heatsinks. I say go for it, I don't think you'll regret it!
@deskmanatee Oh I don't doubt that they are a quality product... I'm just concerned that with the addition of the direct intake ports on the case the air path will be changed and will no longer pull a sufficient amount of air across the SSD heatsink, rendering it ineffective.
@@joe2000gt ah interesting point I hadn't even thought of that!!
@@joe2000gt We'll just have to see with moar tests! Excellent point though.
Am I correct to say even the cheapest eluteng will operate within safe heat parameters. So it doesn’t really matter what you go for if you are price conscious eluteng will suffice?
Don't buy in to this crap, you don't need a specialized heatsink for the M2 SSD in the PS5... Any 2280 M2 heatsink will do.
These SSD don’t thermal throttle until they reach crazy temperatures of like 80c, I’d be very surprised if you noticed any performance drop off without any heat sink at all.
So what is the best ine
The Elecgear seems the best out of themj all?
So what heatsink won?
Appreciate the tests. Though, in all honesty, I'm not sure if its worth getting anything more than that Eluteng (or equivalent oem), which can be found dirt cheap if you shop around. These consoles are mainly only used for reading content, so anything more its just plain overkill. The Eluteng is comparable to OEM coolers, and they don't throttle in even the most poorly cooled of PC's... I highly doubt you could even do that in consoles where its just used for playing games.
Cheers for the vids though, still super interesting to watch.
I use a be quiet MC1 heatsink for my WD 850 in the ps5.
The heatsink should be highly comparable to the Eluteng that was used for this test.
I think it’s totally fine for regular gaming usage and not necessary to switch to a sabrent.
I just ordered one for my SN850, I used to keep the slot open and let fan suck the heat from M.2. It worked fine. Also there is test done on it with same M.2. Where by just keeping slot open is enough for the drive when not using heatsink. Its kinda confusing tbh.
@@XxGAMERxXPS3 I would recommend a heatsink for sure.
Only the ssd with the open slot might work but let’s follow the Sony recommendations and use a heatsink.
@@MisterReen I will install heatsink once it arrives just to be safe. But I saw two test where temp of the controller was around 50-65C while removing the plate. The Nand was around 45c. And you are not using the drive to its 100% capacity when gaming so the temp will be lower. But with plate on it got toasty around 70C. There is many opinions around it. Theoretically with plate of and the fan sucking hot air the m.2 should be fine.
The test was done by Tomshardware and second test by hardware busters.
Any 2280 M.2 heatsink will work, no need for these hilarious heatsink designs.
@@XxGAMERxXPS3 I have no opinion on heatsinks. But more and more current gen games are going to stream large amount of data very quickly from the drives so the stress and load of the drives will only increase with time. I wouldn't write off the drives not being heavily stressed during gameplay. Look at Ratchet and Clank, you're already loading in whole new levels with the press of a button. This type of data streaming are only going to be more common the deeper into current gen we go.
2tb firecuda 530 and elecgear for me
*edit* went with a 4tb
I bet the new Ratchet and Clank would be a good SSD test
Sabrent heatsink it is i think this has the best price/value, every ps5 owner needs to watch this
I guess all these temps are totally fine for the SSDS right?
Yes!
Assuming you take the dbrand plates out of the equation...PS5 plates + SN850 w/ builtin hs + standard cover VS. PS5 + SN850 + Sabrent heatsink cover...which one wins? Has this comparison been done?
Incompatible. The Sabrent is too thick, it won’t close.
After seeing this I think I'll go for Sabrent SSD card plus the PS5 Heatsink, it looks like the best option for me.
It's not possible to use the Sabrent with the PS5 heatsink. It replaces the metal cover and has contact with the SSD controller.
@@OlderRockRocks I think he means the Sabrent heatsink in combination with the Sabrent ssd.
I was debating using the WD SN850 with the sabrent heatsink just because the WD SN850 SSD has a slightly better speed than the sabrent SSD (talking milliseconds though)
i want to see a base comparison with no h/s
Well now I’m truly conflicted own the sabrent and love it love the design and look of the elecgear they both work great don’t know what to do😭
Buy Sabrent, they were tge kriginal designers and the plate is nice and thick heat sink. Love it
I think you need to use PS5 games to test these drives. The games you use in a lot of your benchmarks are PS4 games running on a PS5 and they aren't designed to take advantage of the SSD speeds of the PS5. The data streaming is a lot less than PS5 (current gen) only titles such as "Ratchet and Clank", "Returnal" or even the Matrix unreal 5 demo.
Nas would love to see more content like this alongside how you did the tests especially for the separate heat sinks with the plate on or how we can check temps ourselves. Curious to even if updates to SSDs via PC then installing into the PS5 and not formatting would make any impact to read writes and performance etc
The Elecgear is so well designed, the lowest temps for electronics win the game of longevity 🤔
Hi. I do not know English. Can you please tell me what is the optimal heatsink for ps5? wd sn850. to cool the ssd itself and not to heat the system.
Elecgear PS5 NVME SSD Heatsink
Well you just sold a heat sync for elecgear. Lol. I have been running a " battleship " heatsync similar to the top left one.
FireCuda vs WDBlack 1st party heatsink, can you also add the gigabyte aorus 7000 as their heatsink one of the best.
Already on it buddy!
If we wait another 6 months n continue to just use my external Hard Drive to transfer PS5 games I decide to play again a lot more options will be available n hopefully prices aren’t as much as the damn console itself
I play like 2 hours a day. I use the Sabrent Heatsink. Am I ok?
Absolutely :)
Sitting here watching these temps, rooting for my Elecgear like I'm betting in a horse race lol
Hi need help , i have samsung 990 pro ssd , and looking for best heatsink, on 990 pro extremely high temperature, so need best heatsink , elecgear must be okey for me ?
Kind Regards,
How did you get on? I’ve done the same here 990 pro and elecgear no issues so far, though I do like monthly reviews of read/write and contact checks.
Elecgear for the win, if you're willing to pay.
Sabrent 2nd place, and decent price.
Don't get the other two.
Put your PS5 in a freezer, or mount an airconditioner to it, best cooling ever! No need for a heatsink.
Lmao there’s nothing wrong with the regular “eluteng” heat sink. He has even recommended it in other videos.
Elecgear foor looks n cool.
Great review. I got a 980 Pro with the Sabrent, because I can't get the Elecgear in Europe ( if someone knows where please tell me ) .
As for the Sabrent heatsink, I noticed the thermal pads are not really making super contact ... so I will swap them. Anyone here with the Sabrent that can give me a hint on what sizes to use on the thermal pads?
Sabrent makes contact, I use it and it has been great. I know it makes contact because it was a bit up when screwing down the cover. Plus you dont want to press too much on the ssd
They sell them on Amazon's UK site mate
Best performance for nvme SSD is between 30-40 degrees Celsius case closed Elecgear is the winner
Some of these look overkill as heck.
Is it necessary to have the ssd backside heatsink?
The heatsink is for the ssd… otherwise you’re just adding heat to your console
I think the Sabrent wins this. The controller temp change isn't as great as the heatpipe, but outperforms the eluteng and is close to the elecgear. The average system temp change is 0.3, which is the best among the 4. Combined with the read/write heat handling, the Sabrent strikes a perfect balance between significantly cooling the SSD without raising the system temperature very much.
I'd really like to see these all tested with games developed for PS5 instead of PS4 games which may be making different demands of the SSD.
Edit: with @Must Try Harder's correction, I think it goes from a win to a tie with the elecgear
His figures at the end is not correct. So be careful.
@@LBZ8581 really I'm not sure what you watch but I watched writing down Temps and my figures come out the same
Look at must try harder's comment. I'm not crazy
Sorry Adrian I was talking to gamerx
@@LBZ8581 my bad lol
Would you consider doing a test of them on the same day starting at the same time with multiple ps5's? It would make it a more reliable comparison than different days with different ambient temperatures.
I originally wanted to, but ultimately had to abandon it. Even just 1 SSD+H/S test takes about 6-7 hours minimum, without any issues encountered...add to that the day cycle and it would all be rather fruitless...all whilst rushing desperately to chain them back to back and resulting in a poorer test. Perhaps with multiple PS5s, the same SSD x2-3 units, a temp sensor with multiple results built into it's GUI, 2-3 laptops doing capture and staggered starts, then maybe getting them done same day is possible.... But I fear you wildly overestimate how much I earn in the making of this video! Think of this as a passion project that pays for my drinks a couple of nights a month. Cheers for watching.
@@nascompares I was just more thinking if you had any followers nearby with ps5's etc that you could get together rather than you providing all the ps5's and equipment etc. I would offer mine but I feel since you have sea gulls near you, I likely won't be anywhere near. I must admit I didn't think of the need for 4 lots of sensors and set up though so I understand that it could come to a larger expense and require a lot of space. I do appreciate your reviews an although I haven't upgraded the storage on the ps5 yet, due to me not needing as much as a more casual gamer, I have considered the reviews and I am currently contemplating the sabrent or elecgear heatsink when I do.
Which is the winner at the end?
Sabrent (if I remember right?)
I like the elecgear. It kept the overall temp the lowest. just my opinion
That’s a bit misleading. You need to consider the starting ambient temps to make a fair comparison. If you look at the end, he puts a summary of the temp changes up and the Sabrent is the “winner”. They all do their job so you would be fine with any of them. Typically after 70 degrees Celsius is when the controller will start to throttle your speed.
I've seen other videos and the overall temps matter more. I know computers
I agree overall temps matter, you don’t want your electronics cooking. The point I’m trying to make and the point of this video is to show the efficiency of heatsinks and how well they shunt heat away from the electronics.
I know what the video is about. But for people that don't know, they can be fooled by what he is saying. There is alot of things that go along with what he is saying that they may not understand. This is my opinion, again!

I'm a little shocked there's no PS5 games in the PS5 heatsink video.
Question can you put an elecgear heat sink ontop of a seagate firecuda 4TB with a heat sink into a PS5
