Has anyone tried to melt a marshmallow with the R9 290 reference cooler?

Shroomster

No I have not but if you find a 290, I will bring some marshmallows.

The first question you must ask, what is the melting point of marshmallow?

I don't know if anyone has ever tried this, but I just wanted to let you know that this absolutely made my day when I saw your topic pop up on the homepage. xD

So, signatures are a thing. How does one do them? Is this right?

You dont need to really melt it, just get it to that nice soft gushy point :)

But it'll ruin the card. Not worth it. 

What do they know of England, who only England know?

Putting a marshmallow behind the vent will ruin the card...?

It's not that hard tbh, stress test it to the max and adjust the fan speed until it's 90-95°c and hold the marshmallow at the exhaust part of the cooler, should do the trick.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

HOW? The air is pushing out. I meant in the exhaust.

 

Ah, I thought you meant sitting the marshmallow on top of the card.

The temperature a GPU shows are the temperatures at the core and i doubt  any GPU would blow out hot air which is 45C.

I would expect this from the youtube comments but here on the forums? Puh-lease.
