In this video, I replace the thermal pads between the memory and the Heatsink of the GPU in an attempt to reduce the thermal issues of this GIGABYTE RTX 3090 for cryptocurrency mining. I also changed the Thermal Paste to Kryonaut Extreme (Non Conductive) Thermal Paste.
*CAUTION* When it comes to GPU mining, keep Silicon Lottery in mind!
The results MAY differ from GPU to GPU, thus the clocks/undervolt/voltage displayed in my videos may not work for you due to GPU Brand/Memory/Manufacturing, etc. Temperatures and cooling techniques will both play a role and have an impact. DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH AND TEST AT YOUR OWN RISK.
This is not financial advice, and you should conduct your own research. Everything I say is from my point of view and is for entertainment purposes
