Open air cooling GPU in small case

[Clevis60]

I am building a mitx pc inside the sg13 case. I have my cup cooled my a kraken x31. I am looking at buying a gtx 1070 but as the upen coolers are cheaper and better than the reference cards I was wondering how mutch of an effect this would have on the temperature of the case as the one advantage of having the defence design is that it exhausted the air rather than surcilating it.

Thanks

this case?

http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=536

the video card on this mini itx case goes on the left side, if it has fans like these

the hot air produced by the video card is pushed to the left panel of the case to the outside of the case, there is holes in there so the hot ait produced by it doesn't affect much the rest of the components

if the card is like this

it will pull air from the case and from the left panel of the case and push it to the back of the case, out of the case so is good too

in a mini itx case like this one you need to have good airflow over cpu and pull hot air out, in the front this case doesn't have a fan pushing air in?

i don't see it in the pictures

what i see is that the psu goes on top of the mainboard, this will limit the maximum height of the cpu cooler you choose, also it will mean that psu will act as another fan pulling air out of the case, this is beneficial for the case airflow but will make the psu work hotter under load, perhaps 20 °c more than on another configuration

this case seems to be meanto to be used with a cpu that uses a watercooling solution, something like a corsair h80

in the pictures of the case, i think they used that one or one very similar if not the same

it seems that in the right of the case you can put a 200mm fan pulling hot air out
