Dear THW community, i was hoping you could help me out with a concern i have with my new build. My 980ti usually hovers around 83-84c under load, is this normal for a 980ti zotac amp edition? the card has 3 fans so i am assuming it should run cooler than the average 980ti, but i seem to be getting the same temperatures. everything else in the computer is running cool.
case fans: 1 rear exhaust, 1 top exhaust, 1 side intake, and 1 front intake. i was just using the rear and front fans at first but decided to buy 2 additional fans, however it did not make a big difference at all. i was told to put the side fan on the bottom but my psu cables would block some of the airflow, would this still be more beneficial even with 20% airflow restriction? or should i try some different configurations in order to optimize the airflow in the case? Note: i do not have room to put an additional front intake fan otherwise i would have done so already.
Here are some of my specs:
Case: corsair 200r
proc: i5 6600k
gfx: zotac 980ti amp edition
4k monitor (Which i suspect may be contributing to the heat)
