We check out a whole bunch of passive, active and watercooled M.2 SSD heatsinks and pitch them against a 12,000MB/sec PCIe 5.0 SSD to see what kind of cooling you need to prevent throttling!
Super interesting testing and surprising results! We compare the Crucial T700 Pro heatsink and heatsink-less versions, see whether our Asus ROG Strix X670E-E Gaming WiFi motherboard's heatsinks can cope and also test a bunch of third party heatsinks.
We also test WD's SN850 - a PCIe 4 SSD to see which heatsinks are better value for lower heatloads.

Suggestion: After the chart, show images of the heatsinks in order of their performance. Or, show the chart first and then describe the heatsinks in performance order. Why? Because I (and probably others) don't want to memorize the names of the heatsinks, we just want to know which ones work well. Since those exact heatsinks might not be available in my area, I really want to see what styles perform better than others. It's no surprise that water cooled or one with a tall aluminum finned heat sink will work best, but I want to know if the basic ones with a flat top, finned top or integrated fan work about the same or are very different.

Great video. Thanks. Been looking for m.2 heatsink comparisons. Also, nice orange case in the back. Great finish.

@CrazyTechLab 10 месяцев назад

Thanks! The full vid for that one is here if you wanna take a look :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-V8bBS4rWcRM.htmlsi=NXhgEwe1HnEH01Yy

Very Extensive review of a wide variety of NVME Heat sinks for both 5.0 and 4.0 NVME drives. I purchased the suggested be quiet heat sink from your affiliate link. Thank you for your in-depth review, it help me decide.

@paolor6771 Год назад

Corsair should’ve used screws to secure the XM2 instead of clips… I returned the two I had due to them continually popping off. Keep in mind Barrow has nvme water block which uses screws to secure the cooling plate to the base plate and is far more stable, I’d recommend that one instead if you’re looking for a water block to cool your nvme.

@CrazyTechLab Год назад

Thanks I'll try to take a look at that - will probably perform similarly but will be a lot easier to install!

@igordasunddas3377 Месяц назад

What a great video! I've got a question though: I have a Micron 7400 MAX m.2 SSD and it's somewhat uneven in height. It's a PCIe Gen4x4 SSD. The SSD jumps to 45-50°C in idle, hitting around 67°C when in benchmarks. Is there any particular SSD cooler you'd recommend?

@wizzawiztech5385 Год назад

I hadn't really considered watercooling an SSD but those temps are definitely worth it! I've probably going big capacity PCIE 4 for now even though I have PCIE 5 SSD support on my ITX board. Thanks for the testing though! Great vid as usual!

@slippery2skip Год назад

Great video Antony. I ordered the be quiet for my Gen 4 SSD. The choices for coolers seem to be endless so this info was very helpful.

@CrazyTechLab Год назад

Pretty sure most of the smaller ones perform the same but the be quiet was very well made and cheap! My pleasure!

@Jake-mn1qc 8 месяцев назад

@@CrazyTechLab And it performs excellent, it dropped the temperature of my Solidigm Pro 44 from a max of 89 in Crystal Disk Mark to a low 55 Celsius, a 34 degrees drop. That MC1 Pro is relatively cheap, fits most motherboards, it's small and well-made. It's perfect, considering it keeps the temperatures low enough, but just as important... not too low in daily use. No need for all those more fancy and more expensive heatsinks. You don't want a heatsink to perform too well, because the NAND chips are known to wear out quicker when the temperatures are too low. That Corsair XM2 looks perfect, but it isn't, because the SSD temperatures are going to be too low during normal activity, increasing the wear on the SSD.

@stephencooke4617 5 месяцев назад

Really helpful video, thanks. How do you control the fan speed on the Icy Box? The documentation online says that the speed is not controllable and when the USB is connected it will run at full speed. I’m interested in getting this one but don’t want it running at max RPM the whole time. Thanks.

@CrazyTechLab 5 месяцев назад

The one I tested doesn't connect via USB, it uses a standard 4-pin fan header so you can use your motherboard's EFI or software to control it very easily

@elteacher0223 5 месяцев назад

Hello, the best passive m.2 heatsinks I have tried are the Acidalie and ThermalRight, but Acidalie will be better even with no positive airflow. The TR is good to use in smaller spaces, and it has a vapor chamber (heatpipe).

@MGrey-qb5xz 7 часов назад

damn thanks for the info dude i had no idea this existed

@R1Armadill0 5 месяцев назад

Bought the corsair waterblock to add to my custom hardline water loop cuz why not. I completely borked a T700 Gen 5 ssd (1TB) trying to connect everything together. Will try again, but yeah... at least it didn't break the slot on the motherboard. Be careful with this one.

@douglasmurphy3266 Месяц назад

Are the heatsinks with PWM fans able to set a curve or temp threshold to kick on 50% and 100% speed? I wouldn't want a tiny screamer fan running indiscriminately even if I could manually adjust it up and down. I would only want one of those things even on there in the first place if it only detected high loads and got rid of heat spikes on its own.

@CrazyTechLab Месяц назад

Yep absolutely.

@charonme 11 месяцев назад

At the beginning you say you got the t700 without the stock crucial heatsink, so how did you get the 80° result for it? It's quite interesting that for the t700 HR09pro was better than Sabrent, but for the pcie4.0 ssd it was the other way around. Was there different airflow? How long did you let the ssds and heatsinks heat up before measurements? Some of the heatsinks are quite large so it might take some time until the temperature reaches the equilibrium

@spidermancrawlingtheweb 18 дней назад

they seem quite bulky and wouldn't fit a laptop. what's the solution for a laptop?

@CrazyTechLab 18 дней назад

Sadly there isn't. Laptops aren't designed to house third party heatsinks. The only real way is to buy a laptop that has a built-in solution.

@techluvin7691 13 дней назад

5th gen Nvme’s run way too hot and just end up throttling no matter what heatsink is on there. That pretty much negates their speed advantage rendering them overpriced and just a bad purchase. They all have one main problem…………not enough surface area. I think you are 20 degrees off on the throttling temperature. It’s more like 60C.

@MGrey-qb5xz 7 часов назад

the average gamer can't even build a pc set bro, how the eff they expect us to do water cooling

@techluvin7691 5 месяцев назад

It runs too hot and just throttles……….so why spend money on that 🤔. Cool the controller with a copper heat sink and leave the rest alone. That is the best way to cool these Nvme drives and keep them running at peak performance. How fast do these drives really need to be? Older Sata Nvme drives don’t get hot at all and their speed respectable. These gen 5 drives run way too hot…….way too hot…….and IMO………will degrade relatively quickly. Having to liquid cool a Nvme drive is just rigoddamndiculous………and we introduce another point of failure in our loop. Because of their small size these Nvme heatsinks don’t have enough surface area to displace the heat created, snd in most cases, retain heat rather then displace it. They are also located right beside or under the graphics card making matters worse. If possible, motherboard manufacturers should relocate drives connected to the CPU to another area of the board and have some sort of air movement over the drive. These tiny fans on these heatsinks are as close to “useless” as you can get. As of this writing I am working on solutions with the best solution so far being cooling of the controller only………so really……..Nvme drives, especially PCIe 5.0 are extremely difficult to impossible to cool. We need a viable cooling solution that doesn’t involve additional points of failure that liquid brings. At this juncture, PCIe 5.0 drives are a waste of money. They’ll just throttle anyway. You’re better off to stick with the 4.0 drives until a viable cooling solution is found.
