X570 chipset cooler help

[Ritsukashy]

I made a fan 40mm housing to direct airflow into the motherboard chipset fan directly out of paper to see if my idea would work to cool it. I was getting a average of 85c on my chipset while playing games in a air conditioned room. the reson why is because my 3 slot gpu covers the chipset fan intake and blows hot air into it and i cant move it to any of the other slots because im using 2 other pcie devices. It works where now im getting about 73 while gaming so im planing on making a more solid and permanent version of this. my question is on what would be the best way of making a more permanent solution. Also if there is a better way to cool my chipset. My case doesn't have much space to work with as its a fractal define 7 compact and doesnt let me mount gpu vertically to move it away from the chipset fan intake

3D print something?

I don't have access to a 3d printer and most online 3d printing companies seem to charge over 100. I'm trying to do this cheaply if possible since I don't have much funds to spend to fix this issue as I did this with stuff I had on hand already

A lot of x570 boards don't have thermal paste between the fan and the heatsink of the chipset.  Gigabyte boards I know you can remove the backplate, remove the thermal pad and apply your own thermal paste and have it drop 10-15c.  Keep the thermal pad for RMA.

Would be good if you said what board you have honey.

Anyway, your problem is that th gpu is blowing the hot air right into the chipset. I would strip the chipset cooler down untill there's only the fan+heatsink lest and make a costum box from Microwave Plastic Container or duct tape the 2080 where the chipset is

im using a Asus crosshair VIII Hero and i already put tape on where the gpu would blow ait into the chipset and it didnt help then i used thermal tape and still didnt help. the space between the gpu and intake is really small like 5 or 6mm and all the surrounding air is hot since it coming out the gpu. ill see about putting thermal paste under there but i dont really have high hopes for that and dont want to void my warranty.

what abut a vertical gpu mount. it will let you be able to put w/e size fan on it and the gpu air would not blow in to it. if that dose not work then guess its bigger then you and me?

My case doesn't support vertical gpu mount

what you mean? how may pci slots dose it have?

[thrasher_565]
