250D air cooling only

Hi guys.

 

So I have set up my new case, I really like the 250D, BUT my GPU tends to run hotter than before (used to  be in a Prodigy M with my old MATX board). It usually reaches the 80°C barrier during Battlefield 4. Although this is not really a huge issue, my GPU gets fairly loud then and THAT is annoying.

 

So here is a pic of my rig, the front is equipped with a Noctua NF-A14 FLX and the side has the regular fan blowing out.

 

 

Is there actually any point in adding another fan or two concerning the GPU temps? Or will I just have to deal with my GPU this way until I get a new one?

You will need a fan that blows air directly on the gpu and it looks like that isn't doable.

You could change the speed at which the fans turn.
