Hi guys
I have just built a Mini ITX system in the Phantex Shift case. I have an RTX 2080ti with a blower cooler. I don't play loads of games but I do enjoy a good shooter.
The system has been working fine for work but tonight I played Rage 2.
With in seconds the system sounded like it was about to take off. After about 5 mins of playing I flipped open the roof of the case and the GPU I/O plate was red hot. I mean too hot to leave your finger on.
The Shift case does hold the GPU in a vertical position so one would expect the I/O plate to be hotter than normal but does this sound right?
I have downloaded HW Monitor and this reports a max temp of 79 degrees under load and 43 when idle which doesn't sound too bad. It just doesn't feel and sound right.
I was warned about the case but I liked the look of it so much I ignored the warnings.
Just wondering what you guys think. I know some of you have more experience than I have. I just don't want to brick my new card.
I should also add that the game plays fine with no crashing or artifacts.
Thanks Richard
