Need pc fan case advice

Posted by GooseSudden@reddit | buildapc | View on Reddit | 2 comments

I’m having pretty high GPU temps on my PNY RTX 5070 and I’m trying to figure out if my airflow setup is the issue.

Current fan setup:

- 2 side fans as intake

- 1 rear fan as exhaust

- 3 AIO top fans as exhaust

- Recently added 3 bottom fans under the GPU as intake

Even after adding the bottom intake fans, my GPU still reaches around 75–80°C during gaming.

One thing I noticed is that I still don’t have any front intake fans installed, even though my case supports 3 front fans. Could that really make a big difference for GPU temps?

What confuses me is that in YouTube benchmarks with the same/similar GPUs, people are getting around 60–65°C or even lower under load.

Could the missing front fans be the main reason, or is there something else I should check like fan curves, undervolting, airflow direction, ambient temp, etc.?

Any advice would help.
