Hello, i just recently built a pc a few days ago and im having troubles with my graphics card temp, it is a GTX 1080 Founders Edition, it reaches temps up to 75-80c under heavy game load even with a custom fan curve set to have the fan at 85%-90% at 70+Celsius. I have bought 2 more fans to my case and i need to know youre opinion on if it will cause negative pressure in the case? And if it will even help cool the graphics card down? *Note: The card sucks air in from the case and out the back of the case

The top one is mostly used as exhaust by most people

I'm not that familiar with 1080 but i guess that should be normal considering the blower style design

Thank you for the quick reply, However im replacing my blower case fan with a high rpm one also, so that should cover the exhaust, and i understand that is normal temps for most people, however i am trying to achieve low temps (60-70c) under high load to leave room for overclocking! Will the internal pressure be okay if i had top fans as coolers?

 in theory if you use the top as intake it would create a turbulence airflow, but honestly and practically it maybe doesn't matter much for the gpu sunce the gpu intake is at the bottom,

 

it could work i just don't know how much effective it is...

Maybe you can try it

That's unrealistic without very low ambient temps. Your temps are normal.
