1080 Heat Issues P775TM1-G

Got a new machine 1080 is hitting 90C with LM on it. Should i replace the pads with fuji or is that a waste? I have the regular pads from eurocom

 

You put LM on the GPU yourself? Did you check that the heatsink contact was good first?

Try the paper clip mod on the GPU heatsink and see if that helps: http://forum.notebookreview.com/thr...ctive-cooling-mod-for-p775dm2-p775dm3.803626/

 

Just replacing pads with the same height ones is a waste of money unless the originals are crumbling.

 

I need specifics on the sizes of the pads i need to purchase and possibly a video on what goes where? Im getting 90c on my machine and i think its do to the cheap pads on the heatsink. Unless its a vbios issue (1080 from P870TM1-G on P775TM1-G) I have undervolted the gpu.

 

Dude, you already made a thread about this: http://forum.notebookreview.com/threads/1080-heat-issues-p775tm1-g.825992/

 

If you are seeing 90 degrees its your GPU core which is running hot. The thermal pads don't affect the core temp unless they are too thick and reducing pressure on the die. Have you repasted the GPU core? If not, do that first before you replace the pads. Use something like Gelid GC Extreme, IC Diamond or something else thicker for the best temps - Kryonaut is also good but it has a tendency to dry out if the fit isn't perfect (which it likely isn't on any laptop).

 

It has fresh put Lm on it from 2 days ago. I made sure i put a little on the heatsink so it could make contact with the core

 

holy crap it must have forgot sorry lol. i didnt even get notifications about it though

 

Yes i spread it good on the gpu and actual gpu heatsink to ensure good contact. CPU is great at 53-55 full load

 

I'd try the paperclip mod. Even if you spread it on both sides, if the heatsink doesn't make good contact with the chip, then LM won't be effective and may even be worse than a thick thermal paste that can bridge a larger gap.

 

LM hates any kind of gap, the contact really does have to be perfect.

 

I got a vertical stand for it and it made all the difference. Gpu is now at 78C Max on 80% Fan CPU is at 64C Max on 60% fan.

 

lumo

Were you using it on a bed or other surface with all the vents blocked?

 

Raising up the back a little does help a lot too.

 

no

it was on a laptop cooler on my computer desk. Its getting more air now vertically then with the damm cooler lol.

 

Some coolers are badly designed and actually block off more than they help.

 

Hi,

I'd like to do a thermal upgrade with LM on CPU and GPU and place thermal pad as needed on my new P775TM1-G Clevo chassis with i9-9900K and RTX 2080.

Questions:
Is there a detailed mod instruction for the placement of the thermal pads? Any extra thermal pads needed in addition to the standard ones already in places, in particular for GPU?

Is the Fujipoly the best thermal pad for the job and what thickness and sizes are required for one system (GPU, ....)? (It's expensive. Trying to find a samplers 0.5, 1, 1.5mm, doesn't seem to exist)

Is the paper clip method recommended for the one block CPU and GPU heat sink of the P775TM1-G?

Is thermal pad needed for m.2 SSD drive? (There is something in the manual about it. It is secured without so far).

Is 1g Grizzly Conductonaut sufficient to a couple of applications for both CPU and GPU?

Will a delid of i9-9900K with a copper IHS be a significant improvement with stock IHS?
Anyone has tried direct dye cooling on i9-9900K in P775TM1-G?

Last questions: What is recommended cooling pad for the P775TM1-G, with great flows (no a big fan of LED, ideally with a switch to turn them off if present)?

Thank you for answering all my questions and helping me get started. Also please let me know if it is better to start a sperate thread specifically for P775TM1 Mod.

Cheers!
