Teardown

PowerColor's thermal solution uses three heatpipes that make direct contact with the GPU surface. The thermal pads on the memory are 0.8 and 3.0 mm thick, and those on the VRM are 1.0 mm thick.


Once the main heatsink is removed, a small VRM heatsink becomes visible. It does get fairly warm, but thanks to the low power draw of the RX 6600, this isn't a problem at all.
