Hi guys hope all is well. I have been mining over the colder months and now here in the UK the temps are rising slightly my GPU is getting warm. I'm currently running a zotac 3090 OC. before i started mining I removed all the pads and paste and replaced them with a better quality product which helped. I also got my hands on two AMD wraith coolers which i stripped down and placed on the backplate with thermal pads. I then stuck two small noctua fans on top on these to cool. Whilst cold this has worked fantastically. 121MH and temps of 94-98 Celsius.

 

I am thinking of going down the water cooling route to A) keep noise down and B) Keep temps lower when the ambient temp is getting higher. I have a corsair 5000d airflow case so have the space for 3 360mm Rads. Is this overkill and would two be ok? Oh and I'm running a 5800x, I know there is a limit on return of radiators etc.

 

Thanks!
