Insider momomo_us shared a post showing one of the most aggressive looking NVMe SSD coolers under PlayStation 5entitled Graugear G-PS5HS01-Cov.
The main advantage of this cooler is its copper heatsink that protrudes from the PS5 NVMe case towards the fan to increase heat dissipation, and such a feature should be quite interesting and effective.
The use of copper heatpipes is unique and not found on similar PS5 coolers. The cooling device consists of two main parts: the main body and an external copper heatsink. The main body uses an aluminum heatsink that is in direct contact with the NVMe drive. This heatsink is then connected to a copper heatpipe that comes out and connects to the copper heatsink.
The key feature of the copper heatsink is where it is located: the heatpipe guides it so that it sits next to the PS5’s cooling fan, effectively giving NVMe SSDs active cooling properties. This should give the drive a massive amount of cooling, which should be more than enough for any NVMe SSD that PS5 supports.
One of the best SSD coolers for PlayStation 5 right now is the Sabrent Rocket 4 Plus heatsink.
with an average temperature of 61 degrees during write operations, and 59 degrees during reading, with only passive cooling. Graugear’s heat dissipation device should reduce temperatures even more than Sabrent’s solutions.
In some cases, undercooling NAND flash tends to do more harm than good, reducing performance, although cooling the drive’s controller can definitely help.
