Review on Cosmos Copper Cooling Heatsinks Cooler by Jay Matlock

1080Ti with Kraken G12 mod

I ended up having to buy two packs for my graphics card but they are worth it. So, like many others here, I modded my 1080ti with a Kraken G12 water cooling mod with an EVGA AIO water block. Without a heatsink, normal games were fine, except I couldn't speed up my memory anymore. The highest temperature on the MEM I've had for gaming was around 83C. I've also recently dabbled in GPU mining and this is where I felt the need for these heatsinks. When mining without a heatsink, the highest MEM temperature was around 93 degrees. Rumor has it that modules on the GPU can hold more, but that's still too much for me. Just finished the install an hour ago. As of this writing I have been mining and the highest temperature on the MEM right now is 80C. I was too excited about the difference to have to write this review. I did not use any glue on this radiator. I bought the thermal tape from Amazon. There are too many reviews here about the glue not working after installation. I hope what I have works well. I definitely recommend them when modding with the Kraken G12. UPDATE: The duct tape I bought here on Amazon has held up day and night gaming and mining for months. I got a bit lazy and left some of those heatsink glue on it and also used my tape and they held just as well.
