I had an O11 but decided i wanted smeller itx(to keep it on the desk).. after going through 4 cases and just having heat problems in ever way. i now have in ITX build in an Matx case that's full water and still the same poo
i know people with the same system in bigger case that dont have problems.

do i just go back to an O11 but i will have dump my studio speakers. that what started the problem.

i went from a 27" monitor and headset to a 32" and studio speakers
But i cant put a PC on the floor i tried but i just cant...

if i went back to an O11 i have to dump the speakers



my system was so nice and so cool... but now just problem and poo(heat)
 
you can't beat physics i'm afraid
your 5800x + 3090 will throw out 550-600w of heat be it in an itx case or a full tower eatx case, the eatx case will handle it better ofc due to its sheer size (assuming it's semi-decently designed)
full custom-loop will alleviate the issue somewhat in a well designed itx build but the main issue is volume of space/airflow that needs to dissipate said 550-600w of heat
it's a trade off
 
it was a 5600 and a 6600xt first and temps did jump
oh i thought you upgraded to a 5800x/3090 lol

5600/6600xt should not be too hard to cool...it's 300-350w tdp max
sure it'll be warmer in a matx/itx case but shouldn't be too horrendous

(i use a 5800x3d/3080 in an itx case)

TBF is was a phanteks evolv shift 2 i moved to first.
that case should be banned.

my 6600xt was a gigabyte and never passed 65c ever, in that case with good fans and full speed it hit 110c and shutdown.
if a 6600xt dose that what is the case for? like what should you use a 750ti haha

oh i thought you upgraded to a 5800x/3090 lol

i didnt move to that in the end but that's when i added water to no avail. im now at the point where im thinking of strapping a 360 rad to my desk on top of the 240 and 280 i already run

the shi(f)t 2 is very poorly designed
the gpu is literally mounted right next to the tempered glass so no airflow to the gpu fans
not surprised that the gpu overheated lol

what case are you using now and what is your loop spec?

TBf i did go through that very destine case type 3 times.

shift 2
Metallic Gear Neo-G
Jonsbo V10(gave that away i was so mad lol hahaha)

TBF all vatical GPU mounts :D

what case are you using now and what is your loop spec?
Case: Jonsbo D30

Corsair XR7 PRO CPU
Alpha cool 3090 GPU block
FLT120 res
D5 EK Pump
EK240mm rad
Hardware Labs GTX 280 - Black

are both the top and bottom rad fans exhausting air from inside the case?
yes, BUT, ive tried one in/one out in both ways, and buth exhausting runs 9c cooler on the CPU, GPU is same same this is why i have ordered(via MM lol) an extra rad 360.
when gaming the heat coming of the rad is insane. i know 500W..... but i have a 240 and a 280.
i did run the 5800x with a 120mm asetek and it was fine the GPU cant over load a 280mm and 120mm rad it just cant.... cant it

loved GT2 and MGS back in the day lol
I'm not old like... but i was 12

i ran an oc 3770k + 7990 quad fire on 480mm of thick rad space...basically a room heater lol (900w)
what is your pump speed?
520mm of thin rad should about manage 550-600w
if you leave the tempered glass side window off how much better are the temps? i wonder if it's an airflow issue

also how is your loop connected?
 
hat is your pump speed?

if you leave the tempered glass side window off how much better are the temps? i wonder if it's an airflow issue

pump speed 90% ish 2800rpm

if i take the panel off.. i see a good drop on CPU
GPU is alway 45 to 55c depending on game

Ive see CPU 71 to 79 gaming but i have see 88c when gaming for 2hr
with panel off max 73c

GPU TBF docent care temps crep upto 55 but on a 3090 @ 55c who cares.
that 1440 @ MAX setting 165FPS

yeah definitely an airflow issue then
you need fresh air intake but on the d30 the front panel is solid
i'm assuming your loop is: pump -> gpu -> rad -> rad -> cpu -> pump ?

cpu> rad> rad> gpu> res

if i have in bottom out top the problem is the rads get so hot that the air flow heats up the other rad making the system hotter.
thats why i have grabbed a 360 for the desk

That's probably why your CPU temps are poor(er) the 350w of heat from the GPU is going straight to the CPU (res) without being cooled. Also the high water temps will do the D5 no good.

No, that theory has been fairly disproven. The water temperature stabilises across the loop, and reordering components doesn't produce a difference in component temps beyond what you could attribute to run-to-run variance (source)

OP, Do you have a sensor for your fluid temp? From what I can see of the case you have, it has a solid front panel, and you have rads on the top & bottom set to exhaust. The rear ventilation is masked by your FLT 120, so where is the case pulling cool air in from? I suggest you get one of these so you can cross-reference your component temps with your fluid temp. And if you want to really obsess about it, also get an indoor thermometer so you can measure ambient temp. Just going off the CPU/GPU temp is working from very incomplete information.
 
My case as no I/O in and both side pannels are venter i binned the glass panel and just get a second rear panels of ebay.
but yes there is no active intake, how ever set one set of fan as in and one as out tup temps up by 5-10c depending on what i was doing.

next weekend i will be scraping my 280 rad setting the bottom fans as intake and top RAD as exhaust, i will have an external 360mm rad on the back of my desk. i will also add a temp sensor
