Hey everyone,

We're back with another Patrons Ask GN video. We filmed two back-to-back, and the second will go live later in the week. Great questions in the Patreon Discord this week -- please submit more as you come up with them!

00:54 – Any interest in the Ice Giant cooler?

Cmoney: “Any interest in the Ice Giant CPU Cooler? I am sure @Steve Burke would have words for them.”

03:52 – Cooling for the 3900X?

MoonGod: “would you recommend a 240mm AIO for a 3900x or a quality push/pull air cooler? #askgn-questionswill be running PBO clock speeds”

06:03 – Can the IO be Simplified?

Cmoney: “what would it take between case manufacturers and motherboard makers to make a simplified front io hardware power, reset button, front audio I/O combined into one plugin on the motherboard?”

06:57 – What Died in 2080 Ti GPUs?

Nory: “I'm starting to notice a few manufactures selling refurb RTX2080 Ti's. Has any company revealed what component needed to be fixed/replaced on all those cards that went bad after launch?”

08:14 – Electricity Bill After Folding at Home?

Hg201: “With all that Folding-At-Home horsepower, have you noticed an increase in your electrical bill?”

08:48 – Will GN Test EK AIO Coolers?

Tex: “Will you be doing a test of the upcoming EK AIO series? (some have already gotten review samples, but I don't trust anyone else for cooling tests..)Would love to see how they compare to X62/Arctic series. Especially interesting as it is EK's first AIOs, and it is NOT a Asetek pump, but in-house design..”

09:49 – Standardized Fans on Coolers?

Andy Roo: “Would you consider doing a "standardized fan test" for CLC liquid coolers? Maybe a 120 and 140 static pressure noctua fan for the new liquid coolers going forward?”
