INSTALLING an ACCELERO on a GTX 1080 Ti!? How to & Temps vs 1080 Strix
Вставка
- Опубліковано 30 бер 2017
- After letting off some Easter Eggs in the last couple of videos, people inquired about the custom GTX 1080ti that I had on display, so here it is. I have fitted a Arctic acclero onto the card and the results are quite simply amazing, even with the extra power draw the 1080ti produces over both the 1080 and 980ti.
I used the thermal grizzly thermal paste, which is a dangerous move (and I don't recommend doing any of this to your 1080ti card btw, as it WILL void warranty), but the results speak for the themselves - phenomal temps and also low noise. This was a really cool experiment that ended up working out really well.

Little remark: You won't lose your warranty if you go with MSI or EVGA (just look it up). You can remove the FE air cooling and install whatever cooling you want.
Some suppliers will reduce the warranty to 2 or 3 years, some will remove it categorically but some won't care.
Thanks, I haven't checked warranty in depth in a while, this is great info.
wtf generally you would want to use clu on gpu die like this
i.imgur.com/x0CSdiK.jpg
so you won't accidentally spread any on the transistors. The way you did it gives absolutely no wiggle room error in case you slip a little while mounting the cooler
Edit: yes its off topic but thats because I need to steal the pinned comment for exposure so people won't kill their gpus with clu
Yeah I have had a 780 with conductive thermal paste plastered onto the micro SMDs on the side and it didn't kill the GPU, though still not a good thing. The tape is a good idea, but since the paste is pretty thin, it can still leak so finitely, and then it will still cause problems, so I like to just work with precision from the get go and get the amount just right.
Interesting, you booted and it didn't die? Pretty lucky, there was probably another one in parallel or something.
Just had a guy kill his 7700k earlier this week in r/overclocking by accidentally spreading his clu onto some contacts next to the die.

Generally though you might want to cover up whatever is conductive with some nail polish or tape and just mount the cooler over it.
Damn, poor guy :(. Prob also another good reason for modders to get a power supply that doesn't have a huge start up spike voltage. Yeah I agree though you really only need a micro dot of the stuff to start with, I think the CLP application video is an excellent start to show people how much of the stuff you need if applying, so I will update the description with the video, though you can always use mx4, but on a 1080ti putting out so much heat I would rather go with the high performance pastes. Here is the CLP video. ua-cam.com/video/qFhbqiFh9Us/v-deo.html
Arctic should start doing custom graphics card themselves !
Or at least collaborate with one of the manufacturers. They have kickass coolers right up there with Noctua and be quiet!
Monki McAwesome Noctua would make sick GPU coolers.
Interesting thing, they actually did that once for Sparkle. Google Sparkle Calibre.
That was one hell of sexy purple cooler, but it was monstrous.
This test was awful though. Different cards, different thermal pastes, different coolers? Get a 1080TI Strix, and replace the thermal paste on that card also, and then run the tests. We don't know how much of the gains came from the cooler compared to the thermal paste.
Speaker1264 It was good test and was all about temps, point of it is that less power hungry gpu with custom overpriced cooler performs worse.
These Coolers have lasted for years and still provide some great temps, great video as always
Budget-Builds Official hey :D
That's not thermal paste you're using. The Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut is liquid metal, and it's very effective. You have to use the same thermal compounds if you want to compare different coolers, and the same coolers if you want to compare different thermal compounds. Mixing the two together is extremely unscientific and casts doubts on the results, because a large proportion of the lower temperatures can easily be attributed to using liquid metal over the stock Asus thermal paste.
nonsexysecretary ahhhhhh the variables control the VARIABLES
Absolutely true. I hate this youtuber now :(
He didn't really used even same graphics cards.. so what's the point :D
That fucking ending lmfaooo
:D!?
The money-shot!
I really thought he was exaggerating about the thermal paste..
"F#%K" -Brian 2017
I have been watching your videos for a very long time and it's great to see you do this full time and gaining so much support. Keep up the great content Brian and good luck!
The ending is awesome, you definitely need to do it more often.
That thermal paste looks like melted Gallium.
Haru Jayasekara It does say not to use it with aluminum, I bet it is at least part gallium.
It's probably a gallium alloy of similar metals (e.g. indium) to make it liquid at room temperature.
It's a indium and gallium based alloy, with some extra secret sauce impurities to help reduce oxidation.
Haven't checked in in a while but you're channel has become a lot better IMO, I love the topics, editing and more concise format. I miss when Tek Syndicate used to do this sort of thing, giving less over the top hardware a chance. My next rig may well not be water cooled so this is very cool to know about. Cheers TC. o/
I actually had a choice back in the summer when I was upgrading - get a reference 290X locally and add that extra 70eu for the Accelero cooler or order a Tri-X 290X online from Germany for the same total. I chose the latter, and even though the Tri-X coolers were absolutely amazing, your Accelero videos always bring me back to that point where I decided to not go down this road :p
Nice to see ACCELERO is still making solid cooling stuff. Loved their coolers back in the day! HAHA at the ending, it came out really fast indeed.
i think it should be interesting by taking temp with strix cooler BUT with the grizzly liquid paste. Cuz here maybe it's the paste that does all the job and the accelero just a little
0:27, what about water cooling? Also, I don't think taking apart the cooler voids warranty anymore.
Great review, I was crying laughing at the end when the liquid compound shot out and your reaction.
I had a heavily modified GTX 970 (1600Mhz+) with the two fan version and it was almost silent, and never went above the 50's. This might be what's next for my 1080ti. Thank you for the effort.
How do you know what components to put the heatsinks on? I can understand RAM chips but I don't know what the VRMs look like and what other components you're putting heatsinks on.
hey, got mine accelero xtreme 3 yesterday on a MSI gtx970 Armor 2x 4gdt5 and it couldnt be better. dropped from 75ºC to 55ºC and from a fan usage of 68% to 36%. amazing cooler, money well spent.
keep up the good work Brian.
Cheers
I would be interested to see if you had a good air cooler for the cpu in there, to see if this unit would raise cpu temps.
Great video, those Arctic coolers are amazing.
what if you used thermal grizzly on the strix card? will the temps go down on that too?
whats the name of the music at 4:52 please i want to listen it full
A good trick when using conductive TIM is to cover the resistors in a non-conductive TIM, such as MX-4, to protect them in case of spills or dripping.
Your vids have got shown me how to build a nice used pc (for a total of 125 AUD)
- 4gb DDR3
- Q6600
- GTX 750ti
- Antec 430w 80+ psu
Thanks,
Hugh
not bad
hey q6600 nice, have you bsel modded it? I got one running at 3GHz stable as a mofo (that's a 25% OC!)
Maybe a bit more RAM
What should I do on my 1080? Liquid cooling it ( not custom loop ) or Mount an Artic cooler? It's zotac AMP.
Tech City, first off good video. I have three of the coolers you are using and you are right that they are very good. I noticed at around 02:10 you discuss concern for using the Grizzly TIM. There is a way that can help with protecting those areas of concern. Place two layers of 'clear' Liquid Electrical Tape, over those resistors/chips surrounding the die/GPU. Allow it to fully dry after each application. This helps give you added insurance that you won't short out your card after applying the TIM. I myself use CLU Pro on my new Titan Xp and previously no less than 7 other cards, I have never had a short happen using CLU because of the added protection. Oh that type of TIM also works well with water-cooling GPUs. Anyway again, good video. Cheers!
Your thumbnail pretty much represents this channels ethos.. Odd; but very interesting XD
How thick does this make the card? I am looking to move from a waterblock back to air and I am looking at mini itx cases.
Should we go for the Accelero III or IV for a 1080ti? The IV comes with a backplate cooler. I wasn't sure if it is compatible.
What are those black washer things (and other hardware used) you're using to secure the backplate to the rear IO? 4:12, far right. There is nothing like that in the kit. It would be really helpful if you could reply.
How much thicker is the Accelero vs. the reference blower? Will the card take up 3 slots or only two?
You people who have this cooler is it connected via molex directly to psu? Or you guys using an adapter for the fans and connected to the gpu? In that case whats the adapter. I can't find anything. I don't want constant 7 or 12v on the fans.
my artic accelero twin turbo 2 on my 4gb asus gtx 960 made my graphics card go from running at 75 degrees under load to 55-60 degrees
1:31 look at those soldier points for VRAM on the right of GPU core.. It looks like Nvidia used the PCB from Titan XP for 1080 Ti..
tech can I ask you why did you not put the back heat plate what was provided by artic cooler ?
make video of putting a pump on a aio cooler which has a broken pump , I don't find any video on UA-cam about this topic.....😥
what were the dimensions of the heat sinks that you used? especially the long one.
Oh they come included with the Accelero kit, so if you get it you will get all the heatsinks and plaster I used in this vid.
I'm getting stupid high temps even with fans over 80% using msi afterburner. My 1080 FE using a blower fan. It's almost 5 years old and still runs fine, but I need a new fan setup is this easy to setup without needing other supplies?
Hi I have 3 extra aoi coolers,3 deep cool coolers,1 captain 240,one 120 and a 360. Is it possible to mount the 240 directly to my 1080ti founder's edition?
u should use clear nail polish to cover the tiny little smc's around the die, so if the liquid metal gets on anything it wont be an issue due to the barrier the nail polish creates over the smc's
you got 30-40mhz higher clocks with the accelero? the video showed the stock cooler (right side) running 2088-2100 MHz and accelero (left side) running around 2000mhz ?
please note if you haven`t that not all you mosfets were covered with a small heatsink ... could effect longevity
The gpu will not short out if you get thermal paste on the "Chips" on the side
have you also tried the accelero hybrid coolers? i have one on my old 980 and it doesnt go above 35 c with a 20 degree ambient. i did have to drill a few new screwholes in the vrm heatsink but that was because the holes didnt line up with my card.. (its not a reference card)
also i like the arctic f12 fans. they are cheap, really quiet and provide a good airflow with decent pressure
I got the Accelero Xtreme III and I'm about to install it on a 1070 inside of an NCase M1. Super excited!
How thick is the overall thickness of the card after installing the cooler?
Just got up to a good laugh that ending was hilarious Bryan thanks man good video
Will this work with a gainward blower 1080ti? I'm guessing yes since this 1080 was a blower card aswell?
how do I know if the accelero cooler will fit on my graphics card?
How di you connect artic fan to your GPU? Have you the right adapter? I try to install accellero extreme 3 on my Asus strix gtx1080 8g but have problems with connectors supplire from artic
Does this cooler come with the brace to support the card or is that an optional extra?
Astonishing how Accelero still performs so well after all these years. I remember using these to build silent PCs in 2009 😅
would something like this be worth it for a 1070 FE if i plan on overclocking?
Nice! I have the XtremeIV instead, works fantastic. Any reason you went with 3 over 4? availability/compatibility?
Edit, didn't see the part where you mentioned how you got it l0l
Do the fans in these plug directly into the 4 pin female slot one the GPU?
Just ordered my pc and didn't realize which graphics card I was getting. Got the MSI Armor OC 1080 ti which supposedly runs very hot. Will this cooler work on it? Also will I need to get a toolkit and is thermal paste optional or a must have?
Damn, I hadn't thought of using half of the backplate. I just used the mounting hardware that it came with, and instead of resting the weight on the bracket, I have the GPU supported in the middle fan by a 3d printed platform jack :P
I'm waiting on a PCIE extender cable so I can mount the GPU vertically instead so i can take some of the stress off that bracket.
Thanks for the ever helpful videos!
Chokes and mosfets are not being contacted by the cooler or heat sinks. Well all seen what happens in the long run when these are not being cooled properly.
Not sure if this has been covered but in introducing a different thermal compound, you cannot isolate whether the effect is due to the cooler vs the thermal compound itself. I.e., what happens if you use the same thermal compound on both the 1080 Ti Strix and the Artic cooler? Also are the PCB on the FE and the Strix the same? Lot of variables weren't controlled here :(
Additionally,
Hey man, Great video! I was wondering a few things: I bought the Accelero you put in the description, does it come with enough thermal pads if any? Does it come with heat sinks and heat sink plaster? Does it come with the PWM Fan connector? What thermal paste do you recommend I use to mount this to my 1080Ti?. What comes with it and what comes seperate? I'm desperate for an answer from pretty much anybody that knows the answers to my questions. Fast as possible
I have an 6 pins connector for the graphics card how can i make 8 pins of it ?
What is the thermal cement compound you are using to attach the little heatsinks?
i have a 1080ti gigabyte turbo, can i use that cooler in my gpu??
can anyone tell me that artic accelero twin turbo 2 will support rtx 2060 or not
A huge cpu cooler looks to be bigger and heavier than Accelero. I'm going to try fitting it to my gpu if I can figure out the plate to mount it with
Hi hi! So how many C's will my 70C temp go down to with my usual 12 hour use and abuse session be if I decide to get this?
hey do you recoment put on evga icx 1080ti? or just put liquid metal?
Can u buy the 1 fan accelero cooler and compare it to the cooler on the aero itx gtx 1070 from msi
Hey,
Do you think it is safe to use this Accelero Xtreme III on a 1080 Ti / Titan Xp? These cards are very hot and I'm a little bit afraid for its VRMs. Would the included heatsinks be enough to keep the card at the safe side?
Can you do a sound comparison between accelero and windforce , strix aftermarket coolers?
Thanks! Great content
do those little heat sinks for the vrms and memory come with the cooler
Curious if you experienced any long term card flex since the backplate is removed? @techyescity
Also, many companies are ok with aftermarket coolers.. does not void warranty.. verify with the manufacturer first.
If someone is still reading this: I want to connect my fans directly to my Asus 1080Ti STRIX GPU (instead of the standard fan), can I do this and regulate the two 120mm fan speed with the Asus GPU Tweak Program?
Wow, awesome difference!
Would this work on the 1080 Strix? I have the strix and the screws that holds the stock cooler to the vrms aren't tightening and I have to use zip ties to get a tight fit. I was going to get aio and go another route but seems this card isn't compatible and also water blocks aren't since companies target the TI variant.
Do those heatsinks and the plaster come with the cooler?
Just a bit confused here, You are comparing an 1080Ti with an 1080 from my understanding, so how does the 1080Ti benefit from the cooler, do you have a comparison of 1080TI stock cooler vs this cooler? How does 1080Ti with this cooler help me understand its benefits vs a different graphics card with 40% less potential?
Where did you get those little heat sinks for the chips?
ive got 2 strix 1080s in sli, + 2100 mhz + 150 on afterburner, ill do haeven bench see what i get
Does this fit the vega 64 8gb HBM2?
Should I get the Arctic Accelero iii or iv?
Can i get all heat sink links used in this video?
I got this cooler way back for my Radeon HD 4870 and the little heatsinks fell off, which fried my card, because the VRM's overheated.
Cooled my refference HD 4870 GPU though. Went from 80C fairly loud to 60C with fans on minimum. Not a fan of the glue on heatsinks though.
How do you do?
I plan to purchase Accelero Xtreme IV.
But,this package doesn't include heat sink for memory.
Could you tell me the height of these heat sink? 1:02
The cooler comes with thermal pads (I believe) that allow you to cool the memory modules (and other components for that matter) with the main heatsink.
It also has a second heatsink on the back ;) But Im unsure how that connects with the board
what do you think about the Accelero Xtreme IV?
Just installed an Accelero III + Liquid Metal (conductnaut) on my 980ti SC with reference cooler. 14c down and totally silent! Is incredible how poor the ref cooler was.
that blooper had me cracking up..!
Great review! Thanks for sharing
Idk why arctic don't redesign their coolers, i mean they perform well, but damn aren't they ugly.
hai matee! what kind of headsink u use for memorys? i need the dimensions in metric please :D
Can this cooler fit a 1660 ti ? The PNY GPU I bought is a toasty & noisy piece of crap... Yet.
had the accelero 3 on my r9 290 was an awesome combo... but it lacks vrm cooling.. lots of heat coming from the back
Where do I get the right Heat sinks?
Is it only compatible with the reference PCB?
Excellent cooler, I picked up an older extreme 2 for $20 that didn't quite fit the gtx 670 I bought to play around with, dremelled the fins slightly to fit and the card now runs low 50's, ---before I was struggling to keep it under 80 with the reference cooler.
How tight do you screw the screws?
Shaky cam is too shaky.
Why do you use the Xtreme 3 and not the Xtreme 4?
You don't have to worry about the GPU shorting from the paste spilling a bit off the die.
The paste is Gallium-based. Not only is the paste itself conductive, it also actually corrodes Aluminium in a matter of hours. That's the main problem with this product. Thermal Grizzly also produces more traditional pastes like Kryonaut which I'd rather use
Can you please do a video using arctic accelero mono plus on gtx 1060 please
