Review on ❄️ Iceberg Thermal DRIFTIce 80mm 0.5mm: Maximize Cooling Efficiency for Excellent Performance by Herthoel Yanda

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Replaced and running with significant temperature variation

My 3080 Gaming OC 10G got very hot under load with stock thermal pads. -> 110 degrees Celsius. Thermal pads will leach oily residue onto the memory chips as well as onto the power supply chips. It will eventually automatically clock down to a very low frequency, somewhere around 600-800MHz. You can open the card and just drain the liquid, but the problem can reoccur within a few weeks with standard pods as more liquid comes out of the pods. The fan headers are very difficult to pull out on this card. Now running live with my new Iceberg thermal pads. For this card you will need 1 pack of 1.5mm and 1 pack of 2mm. My current temperatures are 86 degrees Celsius. Update: Still working at 84-86 degrees Celsius with no drop in performance after two weeks of being awake.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
