PCI-e 5.0 SSD is hitting 11W at sustained write operations. So , it is a possibility. But likely the M.2 connector has to go because M.2 specs requires 3.3V at 2A. We're hitting 3A on PCI-e 4.0 SSD these days.

@thesunexpress Год назад

Bought the (similar) copper one some time ago. The cooling is actually impressive with just a little bit of airflow from a nearby case fan. Installed it on the rear M.2 slot on an ITX motherboard, result was a good 20 to 24 degrees drop. The difficulty is mounting space & positioning so it can benefit from some airflow inside the case.

@vvb890 Год назад

Yea that’s exactly what I was thinking when he reviled the results of the last cooler. Seems to relies on air flow from either nearby case fan or gpu fans pulling air up.

@TheOriginalFaxon Год назад

my first 80mm fan cooler was for an AMD duron that drew around 40 watts or something. A small little m.2 cooler this size would probably have done the job back then, given they came delidded. This looks quite promising for modern drives that keep increasing the power draw of the controller for more performance. Also wild to think that the controller on my drives is probably faster than that Duron as well xD, it was only like 750mhz or something and had way less cache xD edit: im half delirious rn with a cold and a ton of benadryl in me, shold clarify im talking about the 2nd cooler that was shown off, not the ROG one lol.

@RetinaBurner Год назад

I'd like to see the copper one (JeYi) in a situation where it's using the down firing airflow from a GPU to provide additional cooling air (IE, its presumed intended use case.) I know the GPU will be providing warmer air, but it might be a fun surprise.

@ncohafmuta Год назад

Hell, just in a standard case with and without a gpu would be a decent real-world test vs the bench

@MrKentaroMotoPI Год назад

It's probably pronounced "Jay Yee". Yes, any forced convection airflow through the fin gaps should help a lot. They should have left the fin gaps open at the top to allow the air entry to the gaps from multiple angles.

@DiYei Год назад

got it today, my temps are from 48°C to 56°C using my mobo stock cooler (Aorus b550m pro-p) that tbh is just a crappy heat trap, I'll let you know how well the Jeyi works, just give me a few days

@sparkyenergia Год назад

Would love to see a light airflow version of the testing for the coolers that are clearly banking on the system having some airflow. Especially that Jeyi copper one. That was the cooler I was looking at using before I decided to just go full diy and go for a copper heatsink and mount it myself. (I have not done this yet.)

@Purjo92 Год назад

That M.2 Three cooler should make one hell of a good passive cooler, if it can fit without blocking other PCIe slots without the fan. I think GPU fans should provide more than enough airflow for any modern SSD with that kind of overkill heat sink.

@RelakS__ Год назад

M.2 Tree would be decent even without the fan, wouldn't it? You could try the Jayi Q80 as well. It has parallel to the longer side fins, and you can maybe add a random 4cm fan to improve whatever performance it has. Anyway, I think that any diy power led lamp enthusiast welcomes these small, but sometimes fair enough coolers. Of course I am talking about those solutions, which at least look like a usable heatsink.

@volvo09 Год назад

Yeah, I wouldn't even use the fan on that, i'd just leave it passive. No matter the orientation it'll get great airflow in a case.

@junethefirst Год назад

Jiushark is the brand that made the JF13K 240mm topdown CPU cooler, they like humongous heatsinks everywhere. It would be a nice thing to review as well.

@Del_UK Год назад

This M.2 cooler video series, reminds me of the attempts to cool North and South bridge chipsets. Especially remember the ones that were "designed" for use with SLI and crossfire uses. 🤣

@krelakuma Год назад

Yep I had an XFX 780 Tri Sli board, the chipset heatsink had a fan on it that rotated near 6000rpm, was awful

@metaleater9 Год назад

JEYI makes also makes the "Snowpard M.2 cooler" which is very strange as it contains a M.2 PCB riser card which flips the orientation of the SSD. It also extends beyond the M.2 slot in both directions making it look like a motherboard mounted heatsink.

@-opus Год назад

That would be interesting, having the m2 drive perpendicular to the motherboard seems almost logical if heat dissipation is becoming such an issue

@mandelbro777 Год назад

That silver vertical stack with heat pipes and fan cooler was cute as a button. It would probably work great on a Laptop CPU if anyone wanted to pull one out of a case and convert it into a desktop :P I don't know, maybe if you got gifted a laptop you didn't care much about and needed a backup PC or wanted to make some Frankenstein home media pc or lightweight gaming rig for the living room, etc.

@davidgunther8428 Год назад

It would work better on AMD'S 65W desktop processors. No idea how you'd get it to stay attached. Lol

@arudanel5542 Год назад

Yeah, Jeyi looks like it would get a big boost from the GPU intake fan with that tall fin stack. Gelid would be fine on a storage M.2 for looks, is my thoughts on it. As for the huge tower, you could put a pair of them into one of the MSI boards with the double SSDs in a row, to benefit also from bottom case fans maybe. But a bit overkill. Great review, as always. Also, I agree, the Jeyi was a gorgeous cooler, that polished copper and matte black was a piece of art.

@lrmcatspaw1 8 месяцев назад

My personal thought was always "is it possible to add a cooler to a laptop?" My original idea was "why not move the entire finstack to the back of the laptop and make that part of the chasis of the laptop very open?". That way any cooling pad or even any air movement thru there would be much better than the restrictive finstacks with small fans that we have in laptops today. Then I thought you could even add a USB fan (or more like a few in line) and use it as a "tilting of the laptop" and extra airflow. I think the MSI Titan does this to an extent. Maybe surface area ain't enough?

@bajannovazone Год назад

Your 3700X is drawing over that quite often. It has a 65W TDP, but modern CPUs will exceed that TDP rating under load so long as there is thermal headroom. But yes, your CPU could run at TDP on that M.2 cooler.

@Masterblack1991 Год назад

I think the last one would benefit from a normal use case. I think the fin are oriented in that way because above there is the gpu fan pulling air between the fin. Not much because there is large gap between the gpu and the m.2 but i think it would perform better.

@richardgarrett2792 10 месяцев назад

The tower cooler is the one I most liked. Your use of it on the CPU is what sold me. TBH there are low profile coolers about the same size that would cool about as well. I prefer to use some of these when I can. If the intel stock cooler was beefed up a bit with more mass and/or fins they could be quite a reasonable design. I have an old one from Arctic Cooling that is a basic 'starfish' design that keeps my Ryzen 3600 under 80C all the time. I also use an even older AM3 design from them that keeps things nice under my load scenarios. It just depends on the case to be used.
