MaxSun just recently released the world’s very first and just GeForce RTX 4090 GPU with five-fans however one user who purchased the card found that the five-fan GPU runs method hotter than the 2-fan NVIDIA Founders Edition and likewise some MSRP-custom designs.
MaxSun’s Five-Fan GeForce RTX 4090 MGG Graphics Cards Runs Over 80C Temps, Customer Support Says It’s Normal
A couple of days earlier, MaxSun, a brand name we do not typically hear about in areas outside of APAC (Asia Pacific) presented its brand name brand-new GeForce RTX 4090 MGG “Mega Gamer” graphics card. The card is rather a distinct style, including the basic triple-slot & triple-fan style with a silver-colored shroud and backplate that’s confined completely in one system.
The distinct element of the card is that besides the triple-fan cooling service on the top, the card likewise includes 2 small fans on the sides which can assist with cooling the massive aluminum fin stack that this card boasts. This fin stack makes up a 7000mm2 area which is entirely devoted to cooling the graphics card.
2 of 9 That, the card likewise includes a nice-looking RGB LED plate on the side which can be completely personalized.
The card includes a completely personalized PCB & a little factory OC while keeping the 450W TDP (powered by a single 12VHPWR port ). So that’s everything about the card itself so let’s proceed with the preliminary story. A user in China just recently got his hands on the MaxSun GeForce RTX 4090 MGG graphics card and after some preliminary tests, the outcomes that he got were rather worrying. It didn’t matter if he was running a video game or FurMark, the temperatures were constantly
over 80C for the GPU, and HotSpot temperature levels rose to 100C. No overclocking was used to the card and the space temperature levels were 27-28C in the early morning and 20C in the evening, as the user reports.
Opening the side panel of his case did lower the temperatures by a couple of degrees however these temperature levels are certainly worrying thinking about the quantity of cooling this card needs to use. Upon taking the matter up with consumer assistance, MaxSun associates responded by mentioning that these temperatures are great. Far, I have actually checked at least 8 various GeForce RTX 4090 custom-made designs consisting of the referral Founders Edition and by no methods is 100C HotSpot or 80C+ GPU temps fine for the RTX 4090. The card needs to settle around 60-65C under video gaming load and peak around 70-75C with FurMark which’s when utilizing the default Silent BIOS that the majority of these cards ship with. Possibly the people running the client assistance at MaxSun do not actually understand what they are talking about or it’s simply that their meaning of “Normal” is simply too over-the-top.
The user likewise validated with another purchaser who bought the exact same MaxSun GeForce RTX 4090 MGG that he was likewise getting much greater temperature levels than the one reported by him.
All of this made the purchaser return the graphics card which MaxSun declined initially however after some efforts by the user (such as composing a 600-word long message), he handled to persuade MaxSun to reimburse the card. It appears like the five-fan card might just be appearances and absolutely no function because it hardly provides any cooling advantages over the wide range of custom-made designs from other makers and the consumer assistance occurs to be the worst part.
The card itself costs 15,999 RMB which transforms to $2200 United States and even with the taxes included, this is a $600 United States premium over the RTX 4090’s MSRP.
It’s a good idea that MaxSun cards aren’t offered in markets beyond China otherwise this would’ve been used up as a significant problem. It’s constantly suggested to see evaluations of the items you are preparing to purchase as you can get an early insight into whether the item you are paying countless dollars for is in fact worth it, in this case, the RTX 4090 and its large choice of custom-made designs.
