They are set at the bottom of the radiator, pulling the air into the case

Yes! What is weird is the IDLE temps, coming from a 2700X where the Idling was around 28-34°C with temp spikes up to 45 ish. I now have it at 40 ish when doing nothing (still have Discord, Steam, CAM and 2-3 light processes). I've red that these temps are normal though.

I'm running a 3700X cooled by an X62 + a RTX 2080 on an Aorus X570. I consider my temps are very good, lately played WoW on 3 monitors gave me 48-55°C on the CPU and 64-67°C on the GPU. I'm very happy with these thermals but am still curious to know if it can be even better. My previous case...

What would be the best fan configuration for the SM 580? I'm using bottom exhaust and top intake from the AIO. Has someone run temps tests with different configurations?

Just one quick and dirty pic I took this morning before heading to work, not seeing much... I may shoot more in the evening.

1- Order day 1, may I say minute 1 :D, so, back to the 4th of july. 2- Shipping on the 2nd of August (lots of delays mentioned in this thread, everything should be back to normal now). 3- At my door on the 5th of august.

Yay, package received my SM580 yesterday and PC assembled. Took me hours but the result is gorgeous! (1 vented on the GPU + 1 window on mobo). Building in there without custom cables will be a PITA as it's not necessarily easy with it...

The question may seem silly but my PC is sitting on the right hand side, I'll be seeing the GPU side then, which is vented, could have been worse. On the MB side I'll have all my RGB stuff visible through a window panel, which will be facing the wall, pity right? Is there a way to swap the...

A touch of Inwin A1 in this creation! Nice render.

That's the definition of "Sliger"

I did a bit of research regarding the upcoming/already there mini ITX motherboards, it appears Gigabyte is a bit stingy with its fan headers compared to Asus and Asrock (prices can hurt though): X570 itx comparison

According to the pictures I found on Amazon it has 3 FAN headers: 1- CPU 2- Next to the RAM slots 3- Used by the chipset FAN... You may want to use a splitter in this case...

PM sent too ;) so sold to the 580!

Too bad as I'm an international customer, but I have a Streacom DA2 in the meantime... The 580 will take over right away, in august then.

I believe we're very close to see the SM570/580 popping on their homepage!
