Uncovering the real impact of NVMe heatsinks

I recently crafted a video on whether you should peel the sticker off your NVMe SSD (   • Should you peel the sticker off your NVMe?...  ). In that video, someone left a comment suggesting you could also just leave the heatsinks off and get better temperatures. I thought that was a curious concept and so I wanted to test it for myself. So in this video I take two different motherboards and test both the WD_Black SN850 (   • How to install WD_Black SN850 and check sp...  ) and Crucial P5 Plus (   • How to install Crucial P5 Plus NVMe SSD  ) and test them both with and without heatsinks on different motherboards. I used CrystalDiskMark with several passes in both setups to test and check for reasonable use cases. I also was already running the machines in different ways to be similar to daily use so I could give a fair test. The results are surprising. There are obviously a lot of different heatsink designs out there. Neither of the drives I tested had them built onto the drive, instead I'm relying on the motherboard heatsinks and those vary wildly. But it's still an interesting test.

The results will vary from system to system, depending on how many fans you have, the quality of your motherboard, your environmental temps and the generation of drive you're using. Both the Crucial P5 Plus and WD_Black SN850 are PCIe gen 4 drives, running on Intel Z790 systems at x4 PCIe lanes. The motherboards are decent and have good heatsinks too. Older gen drives might not run as hot. Drives installed at the bottom of the motherboard, closer to the case fans might not be as hot.
