Posted 25 Oct 2018 by bronco Post: I don't think it depends on the GPUs. So you're saying improving the airflow through the case won't reduce the case temperature and even if it did it wouldn't cool the mobo better? Hilarious. You're not thinking at all. You can "think" all you want but you won't really know until you try it. Just removing 1 side you'll see the mobo temperature drop to 80 even with SSE3 running. Remove 2 sides and you'll see it drop to 75 with SSE3 running. As I said in the other message, with avx tasks my motherboard doesn't overcome 80°C, while with sse3 tasks it become very hot, over 85°C. You found a connection between SSE3 and temperature. So what? The root cause of the problem is inadequate case cooling. Remove a side and you'll see CPU, GPU and mobo temps all drop even with SSE3 running. |

Posted 24 Oct 2018 by bronco Post: In the pic on the left I see 2 graphics cards. Are they the ones you use? If so than that's your problem. They use radial fans instead of cage fans (blowers). Cage fans blow the heat from the GPU out through the back of the card and out of the case. And since they are blowing air out of the case they also help draw cool air into the case. Radial fans don't blow air out of the case. They blow heat from the GPU into the case where it recirculates until extracted by a case fan. If you use radial fan graphics cards then you usually need additional case fans. Or just remove the sides from the case. |
