Using the latest evidence from an independent forum member, the vapor chamber heatsink used in Nvidia’e GeForce-Film 3800 and A6000 card (via@harukaze5719). Some heatsink melt and leak. It’s not clear how much the problem is and if it happens only on specific conditions.
The study determined how chemical reactions and physical deformities of heatsinks were discovered, causing concerns regarding efficiency as well. When it happens, heatsink formation – and watermelon formation can become into the vapor chamber.
The exploration began with the disassembling an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080, still amongst its greatest graphics cards after three years. After the process, strange red copper exposures surfaced in a heat sink. Even further examinations showed that chemical reactions are emitted, and copper appeared to melt.
The forum member saw an Nvidia RTX A6000 graphics card for ProViz and engineering applications costing about $44,000, though it was released in 2020. The jury presented issues similar to that. This repetition of the unusual copper exposure and an obvious chemical reaction suggested a more widespread problem, possibly inherently inherent to this graphics card’s use for heat heating.

Detailed analysis included cleaning the affected areas and magnifying them, exposed blue substance on surface as well! This discovery revealed the possibility of chemical reactions in them, which could involve a copper component. The nature and extent of these reactions indicate a lack or risk for damage, function deficiencies but not due to internal pressures.
The chambers of vacuum have continuous evaporation and condensation. By absorbing heat and mixing it with the hot-up, such as CPU or GPUs. The vapor moves into an cooler area and releases that heat to dissolve. Vapor chambers provide efficient heat loss, reducing the number of chips you receive in order to maintain optimal temperatures. Various coolants present in the vapour are complex substances that can quickly absorb and condense.
These coolant can react with copper, but it is relatively uncommon and typically occurs under certain unfavorable conditions. A coolant cannot resist a contamination, or impurity occurs as the water is accumulated. There are also two components of the copper that contain contaminants in it from the carbon dioxide pool (microbial gas) and degraded by the oxygen tank system to get out of place with an open temperature. Because of oxygen or other reactive substances, copper oxidizes, and becomes the surface’d metal oxide.
It is unclear whether it’s a cause of the issue or not. We didn’t see a single report on this matter but hadn’ent idea what the conditions were for each other and could develop some copper oxide. To avoid this, we can only recommend checking the cooling system when purchasing used graphics cards.
