Phanteks Evolv mATX thermal temps

Hello. With an ambient temp of around 75, does the evga 980ti ftw gpu temp of 87c, and 6700k@ stock v/ghz cpu temp of 74c seem normal with this case? I've never had such high temps with my previous case being a 600t with a 2500k at 4ghz, and a 670ftw. Highest the cpu went was 63, and gpu was around 83 at max.

Once I take off the front panel of the case, it helps tremendously, but looks tacky and sometimes I forget to put it back on. Once it's off, it becomes quieter, and cooler. Gpu temp of around 79c and cpu around 55-65. All testing is done with gaming, and not stress testing. Just wondering if the higher temps would be a cause of concern. If not, then I'll just leave the front face on and call it a day.

That seems high to me. My 290X is at 57C right now on load in an H440, and I thought the H440 was about as bad as you could get in terms of airflow. But then again what do I know?

This with stock cooling on CPU and under load? Are your case fans working?

CPU temp is pretty high for that cooler. Should be almost 10C lower. GPU is high too. So might be that intake fan isn't powerful enough in that combination.

Those temps are fine and may be normal depending on the fan curve. 

They should probably be lower though and I suspect it may have to due with how fans are laid out in the case.

New case it is. Horrible front intake with a .25 inch gap for air to find a way to the fan. Thinking about two 140mm fans but meh. Should have went with the midi r2 that i originally planned on.

It is an mATX case to begin with, therefore i wouldn't expect much airflow in the case to begin with.

But the temps seems okay, unless the card is thermal throttling i wouldn't worry much.

Small case with a high TDP internal exhaust card, temps a little higher than normal should be expected, but it's not thermal throthling or anything, so maybe improve ventilation if you can, fill the fan mounts if you haven't already, but nothing to worry too much about.

High SP fan should do the trick, Air penetrators are particularly good at focusing airflow torwards the GPU.

and have you added exhausts in the top? that might help aswell, you've got an awfull lot of heat concetrated in a small area, but it should be doable

No, I'll look into 140mm corsair fans for the front, and top. Which type of fans should I go with for each side? Radiator fans for the front, and airflow fans for the top? what about the rear? radiator too?

correct, for the rear you want airflow as well
