Curious about the midplate

[Schmidty87]

So i have a 2080super card that is a blower card, I had a friend that gave me the stock cooler off of his evga black edition that will work on my card but he cant find the midplate. will this cause heating issues in the memory and other components, or should it be ok as long as i run the funs an like 80% as they will have direct airflow on them that way. the reason i ask is i was looking at the nzxt g12 plate and it doesn't use the midplate to cool the vrm or anything else just the fan thats on the adapter so any advice?

Tbh i would use something like this

Assuming it was fit under the cooler

That's what I was looking at and again my thought would be if it would fit under the cooler

Did you already have the cooler in your hands? If yes then you can try to measure the space available by level your transplant cooler a mm higher to your pcb, just side by side you didn't need to tear it down yet and measure the available space between them

 

The seller said that the heatsink is about 5mm

Well as it's a blower card I'll have to atleast take off the outer shroud so I can get a good look at it to compare and try and measure

Was honestly looking into these as there's a bigger selection

But also I saw this cooler and it gave me the same idea

You know what, i ever saw a long version one that could probably be better, I'm gonna search it now

 

 

Also reply to this if you were about to answer, ok

so apparently my graphics card is discontinued by pny so i cant find any bios update 

[Schmidty87]

So got the cooler installed and im running the fans at full tilt. the most the gpu gets to is 63c the memory gets to about 75c but i ordered a heat sink kit and im going to try and fit them under the cooler and see what that does
