Description
If you’re using a 4K or high–refresh-rate monitor with an RTX 5080/5090 Founders Edition, you’re probably familiar with the heat creep issue. After a relatively short time at idle, the GPU reaches around 52 °C and the fans ramp up, producing an annoying burst of noise.
I initially tried installing two 120 mm intake fans at the top of the case, but without any airflow guidance, the cold air simply took the path of least resistance: flowing around the GPU and out through the side panels instead of passing through the GPU heatsink.
To solve this, I took measurements and designed custom fan ducts that direct the incoming air straight through the GPU heatsink. The two intake fans can run at very low RPMs and are completely inaudible.
I used 6-32 long screws and nuts.
