Case Airflow effectiveness

Go to solution Solved by LogicalDrm,

GPU is right next to sidepanel. Thats really big piece to block airflow. But to answer question, no. That 5C difference is what I get if I put window to my sidepanel (mesh).

 

 

 My temps are well below max temps for both  (gpu tops out at 76c max is 85c, cpu tops out at 52c max is 65c) even at full throttle, overclocked as far as can go, and for extended periods of gaming and or folding. 

 

BUT My GPU is 5c cooler and CPU 2c cooler with side pannel off (cpu is on 240 closed loop in push/pull config, prolly why not much diff),

 

 

does that mean I need to re-evaluate my airflow? 

 

or 

 

since even at those mentioned higher temps it is still well below max temps I should be fine?
