Just switch to EKWB CryoFuel. The premix 1L is already pre-mixed for you, no need to campur campur anymore
Shopee Link: https://shopee.com.my/product/59277182/1886522714
That's the only seller in Malaysia that sells EKWB CryoFuel Premix at a reasonable price
Remember to flush the whole system with lots and lots of distilled water before refilling the system with new coolant
QF120 is an airflow fan, not a static pressure fan
Airflow fan is only good to blow in & out of the case, it's not strong enough to blow air through dense fins in radiators / heatsinks

If you're going to buy the Arctic P12, I'd suggest you buy directly from Taobao
Their price is the cheapest on the
How old is your MX-2? I mean when did you buy it? IINM, thermal paste has a shelf-life. Even when it sits in the tube unused, it will still lose some of it's integrity. Even more if you leave the tube in direct sunlight
You can re-install the intake filter, that's very important to block dust from coming into the case
You need to remove the exhaust filter. Case exhaust filter is really unnecessary

the cheapest Arctic P12 PWM PST i found on shopee is RM40/piece.

however i found this too

# TECWARE Omni Fans Series - [P12/P14] High Static Pressure ARGB Fans Pack # [BLACK/WHITE] RM78 per 3-piece pack
1.88H20

Arctic P12 is 2.2H20

It's up to you bro whichever fans you decide. I'm just telling you what I know
For me, I'll stick with whichever has the highest static pressure at the lowest speed & at the lowest price

P12 is known in YouTube as one of the best competitor to Noctua NF-A12 but at a 1/4 of the price
There are tons of YouTubers recommending it

Look it up in YouTube :thumbsup:

just want to check.
the screw mounting for the GPU Block, theres two type. one with the spring tension, another one is slim half thread.

Another thing i should explore is thermal pad thickness, they gave 1.5mm pad. I can try 0.5mm pad which i got..or maybe 1.0mm pad

CO uses dual ball bearings which will make the fan last a lot longer than sleeve bearing or any other bearings out there

oh maybe i just stick to PWM..im not going to run 24/7..

Idealtech? laugh.gif

why you laugh lol

For thermal pads, I just follow the same thickness of the original thermal pad from the stock heatsink

ok..time to dig old box later doh.gif

Hopefully you left the original thermal pads at their original location on the stock heatsink so you'll know which thermal pads go where
To make it simpler, just reuse the original thermal pads if it's still clean. I'm doing that and it's still working fine until today

Yes i still kept those on the stock cooler on the original location.but ibhave nit put it in a plastic bag though..just campak it back into the box biggrin.gif

Later come back home i search again.

If you're talking about the bottom one, that's for 2080 Ti
Your 2080 probably uses the same heatsink for 2080 Ti
Since 2080 doesn't have memory on the bottom, there are no thermal pads that have been installed on your stock heatsink

Below is an image for 2080 Ti reference PCB

bro,

i found this kind of manual for this block?
from this website https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32920576854.html

it looks like i dont have to place thermal pads on the LR22 thing. make sense because i dont find any thermal pads on the stock cooler. i thought i disposed it.

here's the picture.

Update,

after removing the thermal pads on the LR22
and add 0.5mm thermal pad (total 1.5mm) on the chips column beside the LR22

i got max 60c load.
idle load around 30c.

guess this is a good sign

Much better
Same temps when you were using the ID-Cooling AIO eh?

Ok la tu. Remember to watch the coolant level in the tank, it's normal for the coolant to evaporate after some time

yea this one much cooler, albeit just a bit.

i can get it lower by

-using SP fans
-using better coolant

maybe, just inference
