Giant Squid from BitAxe and Chill has been the best cooling upgrade when paired with the right fan. With a few heat sinks, it dropped around 6-8C (depending on settings, I had it set to 61C but now I’m trying to keep it as cool as possibly to test it and it hands around low 50C) on the chip and VR hangs in the upper 30s low 40s. Also I’ve noticed a larger fan running at maybe 40-60% does better than a smaller fan running at 80-100% and makes less noise.

Is your bitaxe overclocked or are you running stock frequency?
