I have recently aquired a 2080, and it has a large copper vapor chamber with a bunch of aluminium fins attached.
I conductonauted my 980 and my 1070TI, and would like to apply it to this card as well. ( Im aware that its a bit iffy with copper, but i dont mind redoing it yearly when the temps are so good )
Has anyone done this process, is there anything in particular i need to watch out for?
Things that worry me is if there are a number of heat pads on the ram chips that i have to preserve the integrity of, and the problem where the much high viscousity of the liquid metal makes a way thinner layer thats not actually thick enough to join the chip and the heatsink unless you sand the standoff legs of the heatsink down slightly - but not so much you crack the gpu....
Im currently getting about 2Ghz @ 60C when gaming, is it worth me risking frying / damaging my expensive card to go LM, and if so what should i watch out for in particular?
