Thanks :) Took some effort in sawing the stock heatsink in half and making it fit, but it was definitely worth it as it lowered the memory temps even more (-6 / -8 degrees)!
Hello Thomas!
Thanks for your reply. I did make contact with the support team, and will handle things with them (since I've already bought my own padding, I don't have use for the extra padding).
One remark:
Yes, the height difference due to packaging could explain the VRAM not making contact...
For my 3090 strix, the padding supplied with the eiswolf 2 were not thick enough (only 1 mm), and the VRAM wasn't making any contact.
This resulted in 90 degrees+ memory temps at high load. Repadded it with 1.5 mm, and now they are a cool 60 degrees when stressing the card...
Hello there,
I've bought an Alphacool Eiswolf 2 for my Asus ROG Strix 3090. While my CPU temps were lowered by quite a bit, I still noticed a very high Memory Junction VRAM temperature of 90c+, even running up to 100c when playing very demanding games at Ultra / custom + (e.g. RDR2).
I decided...
