Hi, I have a question regarding the temperatures of my GPU, specifically when gaming. The card I have is MSI RTX 2070 Gaming Z. Along with it I have a Ryzen 5 2600 on a MSI X470 Gaming Plus board, 16GB RAM, 750W PSU. I'm mostly asking this question because a few days ago I switched from my old Zalman Z3 case to FD Meshify C- and I believe the gpu temps have gone up. I'm ashamed to say but I am not a "buillder" myself, I mostly like to get things already working so I am unable to just put my pc parts back into Z3 to test the temps there but I am pretty sure that they never got over 70C (playing GR Wildlands, gpu usage was in the 90s). Idle it would basically always be around 32-34C. With Z3 I used 3 preinstalled fans, the case was on the floor. With the Meshify C I am using two Dynamic X2 fans that came with the case along with Enermax Magma advance 120mm fan (two in the front, one in the back). I played about an hour or two of Shadow Of The Tomb Raider and Battlefront 2, with GPU usage in high 80s and up to 99% and temps quickly go over 70C and usually stay around 74-75C. I am not sure if that is a good number for this card. in Idle it's between 34-38C, but I'm not as concerned about that. My biggest concern is the size of the card (307mm) in a compact case such as Meshify C that supports gpus up to 315mm- my card obviously fits but is very close to one of the front intake fans. Zalman Z3 supported gpus up to I believe 360mm so it had more room there. Also, I choose the Meshify C because of it's airflow oriented design but can it be that the thickness of its front foam filter reduces the amount of air being sucked in by the vents?
I apologize for any spelling mistakes and wrong terminology. I am wondering if I am "panicking" for no reason. Or should I maybe get additional ventilator for my current case? Or just get a more spacious case? My budget is limited at this point and I cannot go for anything more expensive than Meshify was but I am concerned about the airflow performance of other cases (I was thinking about SilentiumPC Armis AR7). If anyone has any advice, I would greatly appreciate it!
