Question Which coolers to choose ?

[Leardo]

Hello. I currently have a 2080 Ti but will be upgrading to the nvidia RTX 4*** series soon. During games 2080 Ti heated to 85-87 degrees. I replaced the thermal paste and cleaned the graphics card from dust, but nothing changed. Maybe not enough coolers.

Now there are coolers that came with the case Pure Base 500DX 3pcs. "Pure Wings 2" 140mm 900rpm one for intake and two for exhaust. As one of the options, I think to put three old coolers for air outlet PW2 900rpm two at the top, one at the back, and
forward to the intake, buy 3pcs of 120mm 1500rpm, but I haven’t decided which ones: Pure Wings 2 120x120x25mm 1500rpm or Silent Wings 3 - 120mm 1450rpm the latter have more speed, air pressure and they are a little quieter, but twice above frequency.

Specs:

Core i7-10700KF 3.8GHz
Cooler Noctua NH-D15
BE QUIET! Straight Power 11 750W 80+ Gold
Mainboard MSI Z490-A PRO
SSD M.2 2280 500GB Samsung
SSD SAMSUNG 860 EVO 1TB 2.5" SATA
HYPERX Predator DDR4 3333MHz 32GB Kit 2x16GB
Case BE QUIET! Pure Base 500DX

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

I think you mean to say fans instead of coolers. if I were you, I'd make sure that all the fans are the same, are PWM and they are powered off of a hub. That way you have the fans to ramp up and die down in unison.

If you still have the dust filter on the top of the case, you might want to remove it and see if your temps are a little better but I'd still stick to 3 fans at the front for intake, then 1 fan in the rear for exhaust, all of the same make and model/design, PWM.

Thank you very much for the answer. I don't have the dust filter on the top. In this case, i can install 3 fans at the front of 120mm or 2 of 140mm. Perhaps it will turn out 2 of 140mm and one 120mm at the front? And one 140 mm remains at the back.

Please include the 2080Ti model.
What's the gpu hot spot during these games?
What's the temperature of the air beneath the gpu while the games are going on?[You will need a thermometer to check.]
Please include the thermal paste you used.

AH. The FE coolers for 20 series weren't that great at exhausting their waste heat. The shroud is restricting it more than other models.
That's the weak link.
