Hey everyone. I have recently upgraded few bits and pieces in my pc and changed my case into Thermaltake view 71. So far i have tripple fan cpu water cooling on top and 3 fans at the front of the case plus one at the back to get air out. Seemed decent enought to cool my simple pc... Now, on the first day, after around 2 hours of gaming i acsidentlly touch the side of the case and it was piping hot, i opened the case and had a massive heat wave hitting my face. The heat is from my gpu which is 980ti triple fan. I always keep an eye on temp of cpu and gpu and it didnt seemed that bad temp wise, but now im super paranoid because it geats so stupidlly hot inside the case that i have to keep the side panel doors open all the time. Am i just crazy? Has anyone else has similar issue? Did this case designed just for water cooling?... im loosing my mind over it as i just spend £1,500 on upgrading few bits and the last thing i want is to fck smt up. I need help :(
 
What are your temps when gaming, the case may be warm but if the cpu/gpu are the usual temps then i wouldnt worry. If they are way hotter then i wouldnt be surprised if that front glass panel is suffocating those fans, which probably arent very good anyway.
 
It's true the glass is restrictive, but to counter it, the gaps between the glass and case are larger than usual. If you're sucking in from the front and exhausting through the top & back and the fans are moving enough air you shouldn't really have issues with this case.

If however you're sucking in from the top and exhausting through the front then I can see why the heat may be building up and you may want to switch orientation.
