could you compare the PTM7950 thermal pad with the Thermal Grizzly Kryosheet Thermal pad if possible?
I do use the Kryrosheet on my CPU… it’s awesome
But can it run … a City Skylines 2 city with half a million residents without slowing down to 8-12 seconds per 1 ingame minute ?
How did you disassemble it? Can you share some insights with me about that?
AFAIR you unscrew all screws on the backside of the card, that should lose the complete heatsink/shroud construction. From there, you’ll find more screws that connects the shroud to the heatsink.
My 6800XT is mostly at 75 hot spot without changing anything on it.
Even in GPU intensive games like Cyberpunk 2077 or even War Thunder?
I forgot to mention: I play with a 3400x1440 resolution. Thats’ twice the pixels of 1920x1080.
My question is do you or anyone know what kind of performance/stability improvements I can get by getting my hotspot temps under control?
Besides Games:
Ingames:
AM4 has been introduced in March 2017, the last CPU was released March 2022 (5800x3d) and there are rumors that more AM4 are (rumour) still in development

So it’s likely that AM5 will at least last 5 years, if not longer
