Case and Cooling Setup for 3080 FE

[Nutkin]

Hi All,

I am currently researching parts for a new PC, I have a 3080 FE and 850W PSU installed in my old PC already but the cooling seems....pool.

So I am looking to build a new PC and researchign the cooling aspects as a priority.

I am really liking this case due to the position of the bottom fans over the Mesh intake.

With the bottom to top/rear flow on the new Founters Edition cooling design will this provide an excellent bonus help to keep my GPU cool or in reality is it going to be minimal?

Are there any other cases that have similar fan positions that could benefit?

That case is a very good case for airflow, I doubt you'll regret the purchase.

O11 air, O11.
Bottom intake with actual clearance for the fans to be able to drawn some air will help a lot.
Considering how hot the 3080/3090 usually run, I would only go for a good airflow case (bottom fan/ unrestricted front).
Running commando here, no filters.
Got one of those electric air duster here and it's a 2 minutes job once a month.
Airflow and cool GPU/CPU is priceless. Also quieter as fans can spin slower for same performance.
