Hot Temp components in a Slim Chassis

[Awkward Turtle]

All right, so I've just finished building a very slim gaming pc inside a Silverstone rvZ02 case. 

i7 6700k + Noctua NHL9-i low profile cooler

16Gb DDR4

Msi Z170i Gaming Pro AC itx motherboard.

Msi 980ti gaming 6G graphics card

samsung 850 evo 250gb SSD

Hitachi 1TB SSHD 2.5inch 

Silverstone SFX-L 500W PSU.

 

The pc works fine so far no major issues except for that the case internals seem to be getting quite bloody hot to touch lol. (besides the cpu,Gpu and psu) 

CPU = 65c @ 4.4Ghz

GPU = 75c @ 1510mhz 

as for the rest of the case its bloody boiling especially the harddrives/ssd. (which aren't suppose to get hot)

the main issue is cause the case has no fans besides the ones on the GPU/CPU so its just circulating warm air and it cant get out...

just want to know if this could be an issue for my drives etc.. 

 

I could mod the chassis to fit a 120mm High pressure Noctua Fan to force some cool air in if that would help it out

6700K + 980 Ti in a small case......

Revert to stock clocks.

Well, that is what you get when you build in a small case. Anyway, are those temp at idle or at full load? 

 

Also, one thing I forgot to mention, your case can stand up straight, do you have the legs for your case?

It's an Open 980Ti with a top end CPU, cooled by a tiny heatsink. I suggest going back to stock speeds and getting a better cooler

Yeah i tried all components at stock and still the issue persited

[TheGhzGuy]

How hot at stock?

You have to find a way to get the heat out of the system. Remove a side panel or something. Get an AiO for the CPU

It's an RVZ02, there is no room for an AIO. Air coolers only. 56mm at the max.

The cpu and gpu temps are all great even overclocked/stock but it just affected the rest of the case i.e motherboard vrm's and ssds thats really it imo. 

and I cant get an exact temp for those but they are too hot to touch, so high im guessing

Underclock the CPU a bit and undervolt it. Same for the GPU. This is why you don't buy large hot cards for cases with no air.

Oh my cpu get's 72c and my graphics card 83c

So how did you know the temps before? I'm so confused lol

i meant i cant get the temps for the vrm's and SSD's haha my bad

Oh ok! May I suggest a Cryorig C7 for the CPU?

Or you can change the case to an RVZ01

made some measurements and a 120mm fan will fit on-top of the noctua cooler as well as its own fan  so ill see is blasting 2000rpm of air at it makes a difference

 

i have also thought of a way to watercool this using quick disconnects and an external radiator that wont look like total crap lol

so that'll solve the gpu issue too
