Please keep it to 1 thread.
So I just transferred my components to the Sama IMO1 PRO case and the temps for my GPU are 4 degrees hotter than they were, both at idle and max load. I have an Asrock Challenger RX 6650 xt (picture below) and was wondering if I should put the case fan I have under it more to the right side of the GPU or the left ( or wherever). Like is there a hotter spot I should be targeting with airflow?

Negligible difference. Most likely due to the restrictive airflow in that micto-ATX cube case. E.g it has almost no frontal intake, except one top 120mm fan mount;

Entire PC needs better airflow, not just one spot on GPU. How about MoBo VRM temps? Have you checked those? Or RAM temps? Why only care about GPU? :unsure:

That case supports 3x 120mm or 2x 140mm as bottom intake. For optimal airflow, installing 3x 120mm at the bottom would be the best. + 1x 120mm front intake, 1x 120mm rear exhaust and 2x 140mm top exhausts as well.
