Hi all, having some problems with my Ventus 4070 Ti

The card's thermals seem to be quite high during idle and I'm confused as to why.

I've got nothing running that would use any GPU resources (Firefox, Discord, etc.) and yet my idle temps are always in the low 50s - low 60s.
The Ventus has a 0 RPM mode which seems to turn off after it hits 60 degrees and turns back on after dropping to low 40s, yet as soon as they turn off, the temps jump back up to 50-60 in the matter of a few minutes.

Temps during gaming are also quite confusing, ~65 degrees on Valorant, ~75 on CS2. All in 1440p.

The fans also get pretty loud because of the high temps and them needing to run higher RPM's to keep up.

I'm running the card in an NR200P, with 2 exhaust fans up at the top, and a Thermalright PS120SE pulling air in from the back.

Anyone with this card have any experience with such temps? Thanks
 
include the complete system specs.
CPU - R7 5800X3D (-30 PBO)
Mobo - B550i AORUS Pro AX
Cooler - Thermalright PS120SE (intake from the back, NF-B9 mounted to the rear of the case, NF-A12x25 in the middle)
GPU - MSI RTX 4070 Ti Ventus 3x OC
RAM - Corsair Vengeance RGB Pro 2x8gb 3600 CL18
PSU - SF600
Fans - Arctic P12 PWM PST CO (top mounted as exhaust)

and include an image of the case as it is now.

Edit: realized the image was my deshrouded setup lol, replaced it now

I use the glass panel most of the time, however with the mesh I didnt notice much of a difference for GPU temps, maybe like 1-2 degrees cooler with mesh.

try to even out fan installations;
3x intake, 3x exhaust.

rear exhaust(with CPU cooler blowing directly into it),
2x top exhaust,
2x bottom intake,
+ add the side fan/radiator mount with a 3rd intake there towards the front of the case.

try with higher intake RPMs than exhaust.
with more cool air intake it will add a positive pressure to the system.

Umm, could you consider skipping the 0rpm mode and setting a low rpm fan curve through Afterburner? Sounds like air beneath the gpu stagnates, until the fans spin up - shown by your very positive temperature report in those 2 games.
