I was mildly disappointed with Vavles pricing, so I told my nephew i'd make him a Bazzite system. He plays simple games.
Specs: Ryzen 4650G 450W PSU B550 Asrock ITX board 16GB DDR4 @3600MT/s 1TB PCI-e 3.0 Nvme Coolermaster 240 AIO (somehow crammed in) Silverstone SG-13 case
Case: Raven RVZ02, CPU Ryzen 7800X3D, GPU RTX 3080
Tell me more about the GPU. Did you just remove the shroud and put some fans on the heatsink?
Does that not reduce cooling performance quite a bit?
Those fans actually dropped the temperature a bit, even in a traditional case. They are noctua's thin fans.
I don't have this 3080 any longer, went to a 9070XT.
Interesting, I would have thought the cooling shroud makes more of a difference.
How did you mount them on the heatsink? Might do this to some older GPUs to make them fit in smaller cases.
