I've got RTX2060 and I upgraded my PC today. I installed 5800x3D and Aorus Elite V2. Everything was fine before but now with the new mobo and CPU installed whenever I have a demanding task for a GPU the fans go bonanzo mode and the hotspot(from HWmonitor) instantly jumps up to 107c. What could be wrong?
My airflow is like this: View: https://imgur.com/a/fgXtApB

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

after installing a new motherboard and CPU
When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:

consideting you performed an upgrdae, we'll be seeing two sets of specs for your build.

A side note, did you reinstall your OS once you performed your platform swap?

Updated the post - added full system specs.
Yes, I did a full reinstall of Windows after installing the new parts.
