Quick update for you. I let the Adrenaline software run a log for about 3 hours while essentially doing nothing. It fluxed between 62 and 58C the entire time. I haven’t gotten into any really hard core gaming tests but my son playing Minecraft and me playing Diablo IV never got it above 69c. I’m not even sure if I heard the fans.

I’ll take every advantage I can get

Nice build! ITX will definitely be my next build.

I’ll have to monitor it while this week and get back to you. I have seen people say that the fan curves are aggressive. I don’t mess with the settings too much but would undervolting help?

Thank you! And yes, it’s the TUF card from ASUS. Temps were very good during my brief tests and not even sure if I heard the fans kick on. Probably need to do a longer gaming session tho.

I know there are much cheaper models but I liked the look of this one the best. Also I kept reading about fan noise and even problems with the thermal paste on cards like the red Devil and didn’t want to mess with any of that.

Ryzen 7950x and to be honest it’s complete overkill but it was a Black Friday deal and I couldn’t control myself at the time lol

I’ll admit I was a bit concerned it wouldn’t fit! They power cables are smushed against the glass. My next build will definitely be something a little more manageable.

All are Corsair but the vertical fans are the LL series I believe which have the LEDs around the fan and are brighter overall. Don’t ask to see the cable management in the back 🤣

I built this as part of my Christmas present to myself last year. I cheaped out on my graphics card (6650xt) after splurging on a 4k 144hz Monitor. The 6650 did a great job for the most part but I had to use aggressive upscaling and dialed back alot of settings. I’m giving the card to my nephew today!
