So right now I have NR200P and the PC (Ryzen 5 5600X cooled by Noctua NH U9S, Zotac 3070Ti Trinity) is being cooled by negetive airflow, there are two exhaust fans on top and one 92mm fan at the back exhausting air, no intake fans. The GPU pulls air from the bottom. Idle temps for both are 40 to 45 ish, under load my GPU temp is 74 ish and CPU temp is 73 ish. Will changing cpu cooler orientation to vertical help or should I keep it in hotizontal orientation?

Just hoping maybe changing cooling to vertical may drop cpu temps some more.

It would be drawing air from nearer the hot GPU, so it might make it worse. Switching the rear fan to intake and the CPU cooling fan to blow forwards might drop temps a bit, and doesn't need the cooler remounting. But as noted above, your temps are fine, you're not leaving performance on the table.

Yeah you may gain or lose a couple C but it won't change anything really
