Hi everyone,
I have build a new pc with the following parts
After installing the gpu on the only pci slot available for the rx 5600 xt, i found out that it is installed on the bottom of the motherboard and that my gpu is almost touching my powersupply. I have litteraly about 1.5 inch of space between the gpu and the metal sleeve in the case that conceals the powersupply.
Between the gpu and the psu i also had to connect some cables (power, reset, usb 3.0,..) so there is almost no room for airflow in the gap between the gpu and the psu.
This results in a gpu temperature of about 95 degrees junction temperature in the amd control pannel.
I want to resolve this but i don't know where to start. Is this problem caused because the pci slot is placed on the bottom of the motherboard? I've checked other micro atx motherboards and some have the pci slot more between the bottom and the middle of the motherboard. If i would buy a motherboard like that i would gain a few inches of extra room, but will that be sufficient to fully solve the problem?
Or is the problem caused by the way this case is designed and can i simply resolve this with buying another case for my computer so my gpu will be placed more central in the case and not almost at the bottom of it? Wich cases do you guys recommend?
Or do i have to change my motherboard en case to an ATX midi tower case for a best sollution for this problem and an optimal airflow?
Any suggestion is welcome because i'm not sure how to fix this problem and if i am going to invest soms more money i want to make sure it is the right sollution.
Thank you guys for helping me out!
