Vertical GPU mounts force graphics cards to draw intake air through a thin boundary layer against tempered glass, destroying thermal efficiency in 90% of standard PC builds. Core temperatures can hit 83°C within 10 minutes of a heavy 4K title, causing clock frequencies to drop.
YouTuber TrashBench modified a countertop ice machine to cool an RTX 3060, dropping idle temps to 6.8°C and load temps to 21°C in Cyberpunk 2077. An external thermostat kept the compressor running continuously. Condensation on hardware ended the test, with regular water cooling recommended instead.
A creator turned an ice cube maker into a cooling system for an RTX 3060 GPU. The experimental setup aimed to test extreme temperature reduction on the graphics card. The project demonstrated a novel approach to GPU thermal management using household appliances.
