My Cooling is not good maybe bad not sure. Please any advice is greatly appreciated.

Try flipping the rearmost top fan and check if that helps.

It's entirely hopeless as long he has an AIO, a fishtank case and a vertical GPU mount lol. The worst imaginable scenario from an airflow perspective... Slot in a decent air cooler and the whole situation changes completely (yes the case fans will still be mostly useless, but it'll matter not as much 😉 )

 

 

My temps are a bit high and scaring me. 

 

My Asrock 6950xt oc is ideling at 45c which is okay but when i play games its a gets to about 103-109c and just stays in that range unless i turn my graphics to low or medium.

My CPU is a ryzen 9 7900xt and has a deepcool 270mm aio and will idle at 64c and goes up to  80- 90c ... why is my idle temp so high should  i switch to a big air cooler. remount my aio. idk 

Also for the pc fans i have 3 going into the front and two venting out the top and one out the back.

should i make my gpu horizantal ??

Welcome to the forums!
Do you have any fan curves set? OC?
Do you run it with or without the side panel?

you have 3 HOT intakes and GPU is suffocating against the glass. Open the case and run some games. See temps. If they're significantly improved, your answer is poor air circulation and delivery.

 

Edit: solution is to rotate the GPU and run exhaust fans a bit harder to create negative pressure. That's how I'd do it.

Make sure your PC is dust free and the fans are all spinning properly. Does your system get loud when the GPU overheats?

That GPU is absolutely not suffocating against the glass.  There's plenty of room in front of it.  

 

As for what the issue is:

 

Have you tried running without the front panel on the case?  See if that helps any?

 

Top Fans:  Those look to be intake currently, unless they're reverse blade?  Double Check those.  

 

CPU:  Ryzen 7000 run hot, so you can fully expect that to go to 85-90c regularly.  That's not unusual.  

 

GPU:  Probably should be a little cooler.

 

 

What model are the fans?  How fast are your fans running?  

Can you post a pic of the front fans where they're installed?

Yep air cooler,also the GPU orientation makes this whole setup even worse... But you can keep it, just slap in a thermalright PA and you should be good.

Of course I'm not sure an air cooler even fits with this vertical mount. 🤔 But it probably should...

I think it's important to note I suggested a simple test to see how temps behave with no side panel obstruction. And I provided a solution if a side panel was a factor. 

 

A GPU doesn't have to be suffocating directly, but because of its cooler design, it has 50% of the exhaust on the bottom, which it then recirculated into itself due to heat column effect. So it's an important factor to consider.

 

Thought I agree with your point - front fans could in fact be inverted.

i do its max all the time. 

also i took the side panel off cause a guy told me too because i mounted my gpu vertically

I'd swap both top fans to exhaust, as they're far enough from the front fans

And OP should try installing GPU horizontally to check if temps are better

Yeah I agree
But op said that he runs the pc with the side panel off.
So there might be more to it than just air circulation.

Maybe inadequate gpu fan curve or even bad dye contact or smthn?

fishtank case

Isn't a fishtank case one where the front panel is glass? That's a P400 (maybe 500) with a mesh front grille. It happens to be my personal favorite case

Hard agree on that one. TBH, unless you have small children or cats, I like running no side panel. But with a vertical GPU? yeah, kinda need to

Really hated that they killed the P line and didn't bring up the G line for 8 months, but now the Gs are out, I love them even more.

All OP temps are crazy high, his PC is an oven !

I have loved this case for a while but mounting a 360aio on the front portion was not working to great in my favor and i gave up and just have a 240 with a useless bottom fan blowing into the bottom portion.  Its also got this weird front portion behind the front grill.

do you think the thermalright peerless is good enought. Asking becasue i do not care about looks just want the tank-iest cooler that is simple and works the best

Idle 7900X should be at 50C not 60, and gaming at 75C/80C max, your cooling is real bad

Yeah it's one of the best coolers on par with top noctua ones... But cheaper and arguably looks much better.

I'm wondering if your GPU Cooler was mounted correctly at the factory if it's that hot.
