[USER=16023]@berglh[/USER] if you want to get the most out of your GPU in terms of cooling and silence I think you have 3 options, besides custom watercooling:


  1. Use an Arctic Accelero III or IV with two 120mm fans at the bottom of the case. I'm using the IV without the included backplate but with a set of copper heatsinks for the VRM's for that extra bit of cooling performance. For fans you can use the NF-A12x25's or the NF-F12x25's (high static pressure). I'm using the latter one with a custom fan curve running around 1000rpm which makes them practically inaudible.
  2. Use liquid metal instead of thermal paste. This works especially well with the Arctic, it brings down the temps a few more degrees.
  3. Undervolt your GPU. I'm running my 2080 Super on 0.906v@1920Mhz.

I did all 3 of the above and it dropped the temps of my 2080S from 75c under load to 55c under load while being practically inaudible.
