well with pcie extensions we dont need to rotate the mb any more. and with gpu mounts anything can be placed anywhere now...  and the preformace of having air from front to back or bottom to top dose not matter unless its fanless.

Ambient Temperature sitting around 38-41C and even running Extreme Benchmark Settings, the temps never exceeded 62C. What other kind of benchmarks can I run?

What other kinds of benchmarks other than benchmarks?  I’m not parsing that.  To do what?  It’s got great cooling. A power virus perhaps like Prime95 or furmark?  Those are guaranteed to hit the thing as hard as it is possible to hit it.  I’m not sure they will be harder core than the extreme setting on a benchmark though.  Furmark is technically a benchmark but hasn’t been used for that for years. Prime95 afaik was never a benchmark.  It was more like folding@home. Cinebench is also a benchmark used for stress testing. Cinebench is used specifically for multicore performance.  If you just want some other respected benchmarks there are a lot more.  I can’t remember any more names though.
